Who has seen the final episode? (Spoilers)

I kinda thought he was gonna live too. But thats why I love merlin, it suprises you. And yeah poor Gwaine. Gonna miss this show so much as will be watching alot of merlin repeats.

And those scenes were very powerful and so emotional with Arthur accepting Merlin and the dragon saying Arthur will rise again once more. And when the truck drove past and Merlin was still alive that was a nice twist. At the end Merlin is still kinda watching over Merlin which was amazing and a great ending :)

OMG I don't think ive ever been so gutted about the ending of a show. I mean it was amazing but i am devestated that Arthur didn't survive. Although the Merlin/Arthur scenes were some of the best in the whole series! I would've like to have seen Arthur rise again and I really would have like an Arthur/Gwen scene (i wish we had gotten at least one kiss the season) saying goodbye or something. And I wish we couldve seen Merlin in Camelot again. I agree that the Merlin still alive twist was pretty good but I think it would suck for him living for what seems like forever. Either way, I LOVE this show and wish it was still going. It would have been awesome having a season where Arthur knew bout magic but then we might not have got those amazing M/A scenes.

I too, thought Merlin had a chance. Do something extra special (with some very powerful help) using magic to save Arthur. Let the King accept magic can be used for good, touching I think.

Allow magic in Camalot perhaps? Merlin is made Advisor of Magic? It would've honoured Merlin's actions for the long time Merlin hid his usage of magic and saved the King neck more then once.

In short I would LOVED to see Merlin the TV show to continue. I was devastated at realizing there was no more Merlin! Cut out the truck bit and continue filming! Even if the actors took a break. LOL!

To continue filming either Merlin saves Arthur (perferred) OR if Merlin couldn't save Arthur: let us see Merlin make that long treck back and tell Gwen her husband is dead.
Ouch!
What would follow?
The Queen knows Merlin uses magic and magic is out lawed.

I never saw if Merlin was in the room when the announcement came "the King is dead! Long live the Queen!"

Did Camalot ever change the usage around magic? Did Merlin become part of Queen's council for anything magic?
I think I'll be watching re-runs for awhile. I've simply become a fan of Merlin, the story and the magic! Kinda sucks when it all comes to a sudden halt.

I watch the final episode and i cried so much.
