... Question: I just learned that the last new episodes of Merlin will not be on now until May! This is the second postponement. Sure seems like yet another example of Syfy kicking a show to the curb and treating fans like, well, suckers. Why would they think a two-month delay would help ratings? (Just curious: Anyone know what happened to Warehouse 13?) Thank heavens Grimm is back on Friday nights. A great way to kick off the weekend, and we sure had to wait long enough for that! — Lois
Matt Roush: Syfy (like its cable sibling USA) makes a pretty consistent practice of splitting up the seasons of its various properties — example: Warehouse 13 resumes the back half of its fourth season on April 29 (the last original episode aired in October) — so it's not like Merlin is being singled out. But yes, given that it's already ending, what's the point of stretching it out like this? Some things are beyond our understanding...
