Camelot Pilot Review

With tonight’s premier of Camelot on Starz, I just wanted to point back to my review from the sneak preview a month ago.

The best parts of the show were Morgan, Lot and Merlin. Morgan is determined to get what she wants and won’t let anyone stand in her way. Merlin is suitably creepy and scary where he shows he knows more than anyone else and isn’t always willing to share it. Lot (played wonderfully by James Purefoy) chews up the scenery every where he goes and makes you almost wish that the show was about him. Arthur has almost no personality at this point. He’s a scared teenager who has been thrust so far out of his comfort zone that he has no idea what’s going on. And the rest of the cast is just there for decoration right now.
