Merlin is a forthcoming British television drama series. It is based around the legends of the mythical wizard Merlin and his relationship with Prince Arthur. Produced by independent production company Shine Limited for BBC Television, the programme is designed to run in the same BBC One Saturday evening family drama slot as series such as Doctor Who and Robin Hood. The show became particularly notable in April 2008 when it was purchased by the NBC network in the United States, one of the so-called "big four" television networks in that country. It was the first British television series for many years to be purchased by a major television network in the US; usually British shows are broadcast on PBS or cable television stations there, with the main networks only purchasing the rights to remake US versions of foreign shows That's right. NBC is showing a BBC series this Winter. |

The U.S. release is in early 2009 so you UKers will have to start the episode threads about it.

Merlin's face looks like Frodo's in the Lord Of Piercing joke-video.  I thought when I first saw a picture of Merlin 'OMG! It's like Frodo!' |

Looks good enough to give a go. I hope it doesn't disappoint. I'm always on the lookout for stuff the whole family can get into w/me.
