OMG, MERLIN AND ARTHUR ARE BOYFRIENDS FOREVER

[bubbles83]

I watched the first four episodes of Merlin. OMG, I love it. MERLIN AND ARTHUR ARE IN LOVE FOR REAL. I want an icon with both of them that has little hearts going around them, because that is what I see when I watch them. Also, Morgana/Gwen is epic epic win. Please tell me there's loads of fic for it. Also, I ship Gwen/Merlin and Arthur/Morgana. Basically I want OT4 orgies all over Camelot. Plus, there's Giles. I'm easy for Giles.

Speaking of Giles, I also watched the first episode of Totally Not A Buffy Rip-offDemons. Is Philip Glenister doing that HORRID American accent as payback for all the shitty British accents we have over here? Because it's really awful. Does it get any better as the show goes on? Does THE SHOW get any better as the show goes on? I mean, I'll still watch it, because it's ridiculous, but I was just wondering.

MERLIN IS THE GAYEST SHOW EVER WITHOUT HAVING ANY GAY

OMG, I LOVE IT SO MUCH. MERLIN AND ARTHUR ARE THE BEST BOYFRIENDS EVER!

I need to go find icons!

[tenninch.livejournal.com]

I have some!

... that I took from some people.

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

LOL, I'll take a look at your userpics. :)

JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU MEET MERLIN'S EX-BOYFRIEND.

Also, Gwen has chemistry with just about EVERYONE. It is totally ridiculous.

MERLIN HAS AN EX-BOYFRIEND? OMG I CAN'T WAIT. DOES ARTHUR GET ALL CRANKY AND JEALOUS?

I ship Gwen/Me/Morgana

I'm sorry, did you ask for Cartoon Hearts (http://mamoru22.livejournal.com/68531.html)? (The vid has scenes from later eps, but it's not terribly spoilery that I can tell....

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

OMG, YES. That is exactly how I feel about them.

Also, Colin Morgan is probably the most adorable person on the planet. Every time he grins I get the most ridiculous look on my face.

MERLIN = ♥

I am told Demons never got any better. Personally, I didn't make it past episode #2. Apparently nobody much liked it, as it didn't get a pick up for a second series.

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

OMG, that heart is too small. It should be big and pink and sparkly. :)

Yeah, I didn't think it would. I have the next two episodes, so I'll watch those, then we'll see about getting the others.

My friend just got me into the first few episodes of Merlin! And here I didn't even know she was fannish until we both spontaneously shouted "O HAI SLASH DRAGON!" at the screen. I really, really need to watch more.

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

LOL, fannish people are always lurking in places you'd never expect. :)

Merlin ♥. I am a grown woman (and then some) and have no excuse for loving Merlin, and yet I do.

In re Demons: I don't even know; no, it doesn't; on the upside, they're not going to make another series. Thank god.

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

It is Merlin, that is all the excuse you need. :)

[velvetfascism.livejournal.com]

Aw, Merlin ♥ So much love.

I really want to stand up for Demons, hehe, because yes it is extremely naff! But I still love it. Well, I love Rupert and Mina. They are so much better than the show they're in. It does get better as it goes on, especially towards the end of the series.

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

Merlin is awesome!

I've got another two episodes of Demons, so I'll watch those and see if I want to watch the others. :)

We barely know each other but YES MERLIN. So glad you love it :D A few friends of mine got me into it right after I started getting into Repo and Anthony Stewart Head by telling me he's in it, but then I just generally fell in love with it. Can't wait for the second series!

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

OMG, I love it so much. I watched another five episodes today.

I haven't seen Repo, but I've heard good things about it.

[exsequar.livejournal.com]

MERRRLINNNNN! *\o/* OT4 orgies of hottness and giggles and YES. :D And &GILES;. Baaaasically love forever and ever. There's LOADS of excellent fic, surprisingly, so you just need to start looking! Copracat's delicious tags are a great place to start.

I finished the series yesterday, AND OMG IT WAS SO GOOD. I love it like pie.

Here via the Classic Who Friending Meme... Just wanted to pop in, say "hello" and mention how excited I am to see someone else on my flist who loves Doctor Who *and* Merlin. Merlin is just addictive goodness, isn't it?

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

Hello! :)

Merlin if fabulously wonderful. I'm so glad people on my flist wouldn't shut up about it, so I actually decided to watch it. :D

[stellastars]

Fabulously wonderful, indeed. There were definitely squeals of delight about the show on my flist, too. And then once I started watching it over my Christmas vacation, I just. couldn't. stop. Far too much fun!

Not sure if you're interested in reading Merlin fic, but aeroport_art writes up weekly recs and those lists have been very handy so far!

[bubbles83.livejournal.com]

RECS! OMG, that's totally awesome. Thank you!

[stellastars]

You're welcome! Another good place for recs (though the comm itself is still sorta settling into its routine) is attheroundtable. There's a lot of fic out there already, far more than I can wade through without handy reccing places! I'm happy to share them with a fellow new Merlin fan!
