    Two threads wouldn't be a bad idea.:)

    Except that a thread started specifically to bash the show would be the definition of trolling. At the end of the day, this is one of many discussion threads on DS that include people with different opinions. Heck, Doctor Who has an entire board full of 'em!

    Basically, it's only opinion. For those that genuinely enjoy the show, then what does it matter what other people say? In the case of Who, for example, I loved last season - but a whole bunch of people didn't, and repeatedly explained why. D''you know what difference that made to me or my opinion of the series? None whatsoever.

    And if people can't just figuratively ignore someone, then there's always the more literal option available on the board.

    Glowing eyes on execution of magic mumbo jumbo. Seems oddly familiar...

    Oooh that Medea always causing trouble. If she's not slaying children she's causing earthquakes.

    She could have opened that door quicker by saying "Alohomora". :D

    I was thinking more like a discussion thread and an appreciation thread. If Big Brother contestants can have an appreciation thread, why not a TV show?

    & my definition of trolling is somewhat different to your. Expressing the genuine opinion that a TV show is abysmal in a thread with like minded people isn't trolling. Doing so in order to upset others would be.

    Thanks - I missed about 9 episodes last season.

    Only giving this one episode - the early reviews said it would be better. But it's not looking good :( Distracted enough that I'm posting here:blush:

    I've got stuff to do in the kitchen too like stacking the dishwasher......

    At least they got rid of the stupid comedy moments.

    His destiny should be to get acting lessons.

    Oh come on, vision/prophecy, embracing destiny, dragons, magic eyes evil Queen/sorceress. This really is just Merlin by another name.

    I want to know about his dad, how he came to be here, why he never mentions it or ever slips into pop culture jargon. This show just frustrates me.

    They shouldn't make him deliver long speeches and ride a horse at the same time. It's dangerous:o


    And by long speeches I mean three short sentences.

    They should just make him jump about and do sword fights. That's all he's good for.

    This guy is a better actor than the lead guy.

    Dammit, I just don't give a damn about any of the characters. They have the depth of a shallow puddle in the midday sun in a desert.

    So far!

    Impressive opening though imo. Most of the first series was time wasting, I hope this pace and seriousness continues.

    And Medea? Doesn't she end up having a thing with Jason? ;-)

    I wonder if letting that lad go will come back to bite them on the arse......or save the day!!

    I get the sneaking suspicion we're going to see him again :D
