Terrific series. Lousy packaging.
I watched Merlin on American TV, not the BBC America channel. Loved it. Looked for it to be available on DVD. Found it was only available in European format. Waited some more. Finally it was available. Asked for it for my birthday. Got it. 5 DVDs. Funny. I didn't remember season one being that long. It wasn't. <br />Discs 1 & 3 begin with LONG ads for (1) Robin Hood and (3) Dr. Who. I'm used to ads on American movies, but it's always possible to skip them by going to the menu or some such. No way here. You CANNOT skip the ads. I did mute the sound. I might have to watch them, but I don't have to listen to them. Only 3 episodes on discs 1,2,and 3. There are 4 episodes on disc 4 and NO episodes on disc 5. I loved the series. I love it still, and, even knowing what I do about British marketing bs, I'll still buy season 2 when it's available. But I don't appreciate <br />"2 entertain"s (more like "2 ANNOY"s) blatent attempt to lure customers with the ad "5 DVDs" when 13 episodes plus "special features" would be on either 3, or no more than 4 DVDs had the series been an American one.

Merlin, don't over look this one
I was off one evening and ended up fliping channels and found Merlin a show from the BBC. I have been hooked ever since. The story focuses on young Merlin, kind of like a young Clark Kent in Smallville. I have had no interest in Merlin or King Arthur in the past but you do not have to be familiar with the story to enjoy this dragon's tail. The only thing that would have made this DVD set better is an Episode book with pictures of the cast members with their names. Trust me you will want to know who they are. The last DVD, that has extras on it, does introduce the cast but it would be nice to have something printed before watching the episodes. The only other suggestion I would make is to make the series longer. It is a 5 disc set but only 12 or so episodes for the entire season. I cannot wait for the release of seaon 2. I have my pop corn and rasinettes ready to go.
