It's British, everyone has the nice accents XD It's a new show that's currently showing on channel 10 in Australia though season 1 finished in the UK
in December last year.

definitely  I love the whole concept of it. Merlin is such a klutz but he's cute
as opposed to the idea of him being old and beardy.

I have no idea. It doesn't say on the channel 10 site for it which is annoying because they should put up dates like that.

I watched the first couple of episodes. I'm just waiting for the whole season to end so I can watch it non stop.
I love the effects. It looks expensive for TV.

As quoted from a review of it, Colin Morgan (Merlin) is described as "charmingly dorky" haha
What are you talking about Ivy? The first season completed on 13 December last year and the dvds for it are all out.

I thought it was cute and good.
I liked it.
Or watching it, in Australia each week.
Only thing I have a problem with is the historical accuracy of the sets and some of the costumes...but other than that, I like it.

Started 21 June in the US. Can't wait for the second series in the autumn (UK).
Merlin and Arthur make a great couple!

I think they took more of a modern approach to most of the aspects of Merlin, his story, character and so on. For one his being a young
warlock while befriending Arthur is already quite a contradiction in itself. Perhaps that could explain a lot of the other anachronisms you might
notice.

I agree and from what I remember from the legend, Morgana is supposed to be the evil witch and Nimue is supposed to be Merlin's lover.
But everything on the show seems to be open to some kind of a twist though.
