Merlin Appears on NBC

The BBC television program Merlin has finally crossed the Atlantic Ocean and landed on NBC (see my earlier comments). This much anticipated event was somewhat marred by an earlier golf game that pushed the start of the program off by more than 10 minutes. Leave it to NBC to pay millions for a show and then mess it up for new viewers because of some dumb "sport" watched by a total of 12 people. With hundreds of channels on the cable box let's move sports to their own channels so we can have plenty of space of extra long games and regular programming for the rest of us. What it this, the 1970s? Luckily, NBC also posted the premiere on Fancast. Good save.

Note: Good news! Merlin has been renewed for a second season.
