TBH, I now watch it mostly because Colin Morgan and Bradley James, omg, and occasionally other people. The writing is terrible, the plots are repetitive, characters are flat and their development non-existent, and there's a heavy dollop of sexism for added fun - but the actors are good, at least,

I'm just not sure if making Gwen and Morgana the main characters would actually improve anything, because if handled by the same people, the show would probably have similar problems. So for now, we can stick to fanfics and pray that they hired better writers for S5.

i love the actors and that's pretty much why i'm still on board as well

i just don't get how they are still hiding under the pretence of "arthurian legend" after a) starting out with the notion that this would be a reboot b) reverting back to trying to follow the legend and then c) proceeding to stomp all over it. repeatedly.

i am in such an emotionally abusive relationship with this show and still, i cannot quit it D:

Still, I'd argue (as I did about the upcoming Sherlock) - we've had endless of adaptations/versions/loosely based stuff which focus on Merlin and Arthur, why can't we have it done another way just once?

I don't know about a show, but on the Sherlock front, there's a series of books Carole Nelson Douglas started writing many years ago and has added to it slowly over time; I think there are eight now. They start with "Good Night, Irene," I think - it follows the adventures of Irene Adler, her husband, and her friend and confidante (and her "Watson") Nell, who is the one telling the stories. They're very good.
