Camelot Appreciation #1 ~ The Arthurian legend told like never before!
Welcome to Camelot In the wake of King Uther’s sudden death, chaos threatens to engulf Britain. When the sorcerer Merlin has visions of a dark future, he installs the young and impetuous Arthur, Uther’s unknown son and heir, who has been raised from birth as a commoner. But Arthur’s cold and ambitious half sister Morgan will fight him to the bitter end, summoning unnatural forces to claim the crown in this epic battle for control. These are dark times indeed for the new king, with Guinevere being the only shining light in Arthur’s harsh world. Faced with profound moral decisions, and the challenge of uniting a kingdom broken by war and steeped in deception, Arthur will be tested beyond imagination. Forget everything you think you know…this is the story of Camelot that has never been told before. __________________

Thanks for the thread.
I recently watched all the current eps, and it is good. It's different and its a different tone as Merlin.. but I like it. |

Its good. It doesn't have the comedy light side that Merlin does... its darker and sexy, but I like it.
I don't really like the Gwen/Arthur relationship, TBH |

^ What kind of relationship do they have on the show? how is it portrayed?
Haven't really watched Merlin - so i can't compare. __________________

Ah yeah. They are different, so it's probably better not to compare.. although I did make some connections between Merlin and Camelot.
Well, Arthur had dreams about her before they met.. but within a few eps they met, he fell in love with her.. she lost her virginity to him on the day before her wedding and now Arthur is still trying to get her while she is married, though she told him it was a once off. |

Never got into Merlin, but judging by the trailer Camelot seems a lot darker and grittier than Merlin. __________________

Not really surprised by that, though, it's airing on a pay TV network after all - they tend to have a lot of nudity there
