I am aware that I'm asking the impossible, but a Merlin that had more in common with actual medieval England than with Dawson's Creek would be a great deal more interesting.

That's pretty much why I don't watch it.

For some reason I find it utterly compelling even though it is ahistorical and badly written and has really weird bothersome class dynamics.

Now I understand why I see posts every single week ranting about the fail of the latest episode of Supernatural and yet they keep watching it.

I watch so little tv I don't have time for that. Not trying to sound like a tv snob or anything... we've been spending months and months trying to work through "ashes to ashes", which is only 3 seasons of 8 episodes a season long. So really, I have to super like something to watch it. Or really really awful and then I watch it with friends and possibly drink. :)

But ahistorical stuff really bothers me. I mean, if it's obviously generic fantasy that's different, or if anachronistic stuff is in there on purpose for whatever reason... you know. But yeah.

As one who liked Dawson's Creek, maybe I should watch!
