MERLIN Renewed for Third Season

Merlin

Syfy has picked up MERLIN for a third thirteen episode season, TV Guide reports. Those episodes will appear first on the BBC in th U.K. starting in September, and Syfy is expected to begin airing them in early 2011.

The first season of Merlin aired on NBC last year with disappointing ratings, but the second season proved successful for Syfy this summer, building an enthusiastic enough fan base to warrant a Comic-Con panel.

Creator/executive producer Johnny Capps had this tease about Merlin’s next season, “The upcoming season will add an exciting new twist to Merlin’s ongoing struggle to protect Prince Arthur, as well as thrilling audiences with bigger and bolder action sequences, stunning CGI monsters, mysterious villains and comic fun for all the family.”

Are you happy there’s going to be more Merlin? What do you want to see in upcoming episodes?

    I cannot wait for the new season of Merlin. I love Arthurian legend and since this show basically only uses the names and places and practically NONE of the “canon,” Merlin has become my guilty television pleasure, especially the on-going bromance of Merlin and Arthur.

    I love Merlin and am sooo excited we’re going to get a third season. I even thought season 2 was better than season 1, so I can’t wait to see what they do in season 3.

    You all are killing me (in the best possible way, of course). I already watch too much stuff and now you have me adding Merlin to the list. :)

    I LOVE Merlin!!!!!! It is my favorite series. I am a native
    Californian and a grandmother. This series appeals to all ages!
    It is so refreshing with a wonderful bit of humor. Lots of
    ecitement too. I wish it would start this Sept here in the US.

    I also love the Arthurian legends, but they aren’t are done well, but the Merlin series is filled with talented actors that really do a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life. I am definitely an avid fan. My husband even loves the show and he is not into sci fi or Arthurian legends.
