I can understand all you are saying completely. I guess the main undercurrent of what youa re saying and what I feel and others have felt so far with season two is that everything feels rather, for lack of a better term, forced I guess you could say ? When you compare to how well season one seemed to flow in terms of character arcs, acting and the interaction between the two male leads it shines heads above what season two has shown us so far. For me it seems the writers have lost the plot and dropped the pass and are trying in vain to please too many people all at once, while in doing so have diluted and sullied what was once a show that held a lot of promise for bigger things despite it being tagged unfairly as a children or family show.
Can I see myself liking season two still ? From what I have read and gleamed in other boards it seems they are trying to get a grander story arc incorporated into the show by bringing Arthur's birth and Merlin's secret of his magic more into the main focus and tbh I am more than a little interested in seeing where this all will lead to come the finale. If they want to keep my interest the final episode better be something rather interesting and unsettling.
