Hats off to Julian and Johnny, the producers, for sticking to their guns with the five-season story arc of ‘Merlin’. It would have been too easy to give in to demand and stretch the show on beyond their original plan because of its incredible success. Colin Morgan Read Quote

Who wouldn’t want to be wizard, at least for a day, as long as you didn’t have the dilemmas and the situations that Merlin was thrown into. I’d be happy if you could actually use the powers to have a bit of fun and do something good for the world and maybe for yourself, whereas Merlin’s kind of limited in that he has to look after Arthur.
