Colin Morgan (Merlin) as gay John...

[Inchante]

Merlin is a great show, was glad to see it was picked up for another season. The SCIFI channel carried both seasons one and two... not sure if S3 will be shown. However, Netflix has S3. The British do film making right in my opinion. Hollywood likes to copy... such as Being Human, Life on Mars, Queer as Folk. Hollywood changes the content somewhat but they never can improve on these fantastic shows.
Also there are so many British actors playing American characters such as Andrew Lincoln on The Walking Dead. Not only does he have to drop the english accent, he has to adapt a southern drawl... no easy feat.. as there are many variations. :biggrin:

Not to mention Hugh Laurie in "House", Christian Bale in "American Psycho", Jude Law in "Cold Mountain". Speaking of which, Nicole Kidman has done American, Irish and British Accents "Cold Mountain", "Far and Away",and "The Hours" Kate Blanchett has done a brilliant job with British, American, and Irish accents too in "Elizabeth", "The Missing", and "Veronica Guerin".

I think I like the American version of "The Office" and "queer as Folk" better than the British versions. But, that is a matter of personal taste, I suppose.
