Anybody watch this is really col series i watch it on AXN.

I wan't notice it similarity to Stargate SG-1 beside like tells about King Arthur and generally all movies about warriors, knights, soldiers etc. Unfortunately, King Arthur and Merlin are NOT very masculine in this series, If You Knew What I Mean :D

Stargate: SG1 co-opted the Arthurian mythos only for the last season or two. The rest of the time, it seemed to focus mainly on the Egyptian mythos.

As for Merlin 2008 ... I haven't seen it, so there is not much for me to say except that there seem to be no new stories to tell.

I Almost immediately connected Merlin of the series with Merlin and Ancients from Stargate SG-1 especially his powers, and his special "bond" with King Arthur is really touching :D
