It has been quiet on the Merlin front following the season 4 finale (and subsequent US premiere), but here’s finally a small update on season 5!

The official Merlin twitter account updated the fans today, writing:

We can’t wait to hear more about the new season!

Yay! I guess I’m getting ahead of myself, but I can’t wait. Series 4 was utterly amazing. What do I watch now on my Saturdays at 8?! :P

It’s on in the US? I watched every single episode in a week. I’m positively hooked :D I always find European shows to be better than the mess they give us here

  I totally agree with you! Pretty much the only tv I watch is on netflix & it’s all from UK. I love Merlin, and I’m so happy we’re getting a season 5.
  
  Yes, in typical American fashion, Merlin airs on syfy directly after the WWF Smackdown. Just curious how WWF could possibly be considered sci-fi.

I’m very glad that there will be a season 5, I have a 10 year old grandson and we love to watch this series together. I hope that if season 5 is the last season, we can see a great friendship and respect between Arthur and Merlin. I think Arthur should be brought to an awareness of the great (but hidden) things that Merlin has done for him and Camelot.

I am 54 and look forward to seeing Merlin on Friday nights here. Hope to see another season or 2.

Merlin is a great show i love it and hopefully it will continue for years to come

Each year Merlin gets better and better. I am totally hooked on this show. The writers have taken Merlin into a realm where people of many ages can enjoy! I am 57 years old and Merlin is the only reason I have television.
Colin Morgan is the mirror image of my son which may be one of the reasons I love this show. However, the actors and actresses are fantastic – I love the fact that they all ride horses very well, and what beautiful animals they are, too!
My favorite actors and actresses are, in order: Colin Morgan, Richard Wilson, the Great Dragon, Katie McGrath, Bradley James, Angel Coulby. I would really to have seen more of Trisan and Isolde in other episodes in Season 4.
I am looking forward to Merlin giving as good as he gets and maybe even better than he gets.
It would also be interesting to see Lady Morgana turn from the nasty side of magic to using magic for good – using Aithusa to turn Morgana from nasty to good magic.
Will there be more seasons of Merlin after season 5?
Will King Arthur even find out that Gwen was enchanted by the magic bracelet and that was why she was kissing Lancelot?
Are we Americans getting a watered down version of Merlin compared to what the Brits get to see?
Please, please continue with this program – it’s the only good show on television these days! Can’t get enough of the show or information about the cast!

I can’t wait for season 5.I think It is very cool….

merlin is the best among the rest

Megan … I’m in total agreement. Season 4 was epic … but … sigh-h-h, nowwe have to wait for Season 5 and are told that it is going to be “The Finale”. Maybe someone can wave a “Merlin wand” (in the way of better Neilson ratings) and Merlin will go on? Hopefully? …
