Really, it's a flying shame that I don't get more time in with Arthur. Admittedly, Sam's always a little 'iffy' with authority figures (which makes it funny that she talks to Uther, but he's more an advisor here than a leader). But regardless, I have enjoyed watching Arthur develop.

While I do enjoy seeing Arthur in cross-canon scenarios, I feel that we've seen he and Merlin and Uther shine strongly as a combined cast along with Morgana. The four characters have really taken the opportunity to play on several of the difficult questions they couldn't face while Uther was still king. Mordred's incorporation into the cast has made for an intriguing shakeup, and all around the Merlin cast remains one of the more interesting ones to watch as time progresses.

I will also say that I have noticed that all of you and your castmates have remained consistent in portrayal with developments factored in. None of them have shown particularly strong changes that would be jarring or out of place, which I think is a good sign that the RP's being handled at a good and sensible pace.
