Merlin S5

Anyone else watching?

Not yet. I'm in the US, so I'll have to wait for January, when it's back on SyFy. Why SyFy instead of BBC America doesn't make sense, but then BBCA shows a lot of Star Trek and Battlestar, which also doesn't make sense.

So, no spoilers, but was it good? Can't wait to see it.

I'm in Canada, but I'm watching by way of putlocker files.

So far, I really like the new scenery; it has a different feel to it, whereas I noticed in previous seasons they recycled a lot of locations. That may still happen down the line, but right now it has a unique look.

Arthur and Merlin have better hair than in S4. :D Gaius' wig is really bad this time though.

Sounds like fun. I hope SyFy does a marathon before they show the new episodes so I can catch up. We were watching on BBCAmerica too, but they were on seasons 1 and 2, so I've probably forgotten a few things that have happened. (I hate the time gaps they put between seasons/series on SyFy; it sucks for the viewers and it's not good for the shows.)

Yay for new scenery and (mostly) better hair, but I miss seeing Anthony Head being a cranky king.
