Bad made

A King with 10 people in his Army! A King that is treated like a peasant by his own men. No battle scenes, just a handful of men, farmers for the most part and castles that are falling apart. Camelot is a place in shambles. In one episode Merlin try to take the whole Pendragon castle and make Morgana pay for her betrayal...with two warriors and a woman, the Queen, what a joke!. Acting in several parts is very poor. I just want to ask the producers: what is wrong with you ? Just stop the airing and try to remake it..correctly. If you have budget constraints do not even waste your time putting this junk together people!
