First Episode Of Merlin
I wasn't going to post this behind a cut, because there isn't really anything here that could be considered a spoiler. However, there's a mention of a character moment or two, so I decided I will.
-Merlin looks strangely like a young Peter Wingfield--possibly mixed in with James Marsden in a certain light. He seems like a good actor--especially going by the fact that the only other time I've seen him before was in the Doctor Who episode "Midnight."
-I think I might watch a couple more episodes, since I'm not entirely sure that I like the show or not. I know I like Merlin, Guinevere, and the older guy that is Merlin's friend--no idea what his (or the actor's) name is, but he's strangely familiar. If Anthony Stewart Head gets more to do, then I'll probably like his character.
-Every time there was a mention of destiny, I felt like I was watching an episode of Smallville. Of course, Merlin seems more interesting to me.
-The evil witch--I kept waiting for her to scream "I'll swallow your soul!" whenever they showed her true self. She looked like the evil demons in Army of Darkness.
-For once, I actually liked Eve Myles' character, even if it was just someone disguised as her. I take it the evil witch is permanently dead?

I almost said that I didn't realize Reinette ever had a friend with her...but was it when she was walking around outside? In a garden of some sort? I think part of that scene was cut (or shortened) from BBC America the one time I watched.
I've only seen Girl in the Fireplace twice, I believe. The other time it was pretty much butchered on the Sci-Fi Channel.
