A love triangle or a threesome? Here comes Lancelot…

Well… Once Lancelot shows up in Camelot, the gay subtext gets even more obvious on Merlin. I had to play a bit with the characters. I just couldn’t help it. It was way too fun and easy. Maybe it’s an adult TV show after all? I’m sure it’s not just me…

As Bradley James mentions it in one of the interviews, Lancelot might be in love with Prince Arthur and not Gwen. At least that’s how the story goes according to few versions of the Arthurian legend… But in this episode, it seems like there’s a love triangle and Arthur has a crush on both Merlin and Lancelot. Once Lancelot realizes that he’s intruding and coming between Arthur and Merlin, he leaves. For a while, that is…

Whoever made these series knew exactly what they were doing. I’m a 100% Merthur fan, but the kindhearted Lancelot treats Merlin so gently that I get confused. So… I thought that Merlin would, too… I hope that my jokes are comprehensible and I’m sorry if I went too far. I always do…
