Oh Look SHINE'S RACISM Knows No Bounds...here we go again.

posted by EPaws

Today on tumblr it would seem Why We প্রণয় Merlin erred again, know how, they put up a convenient poster as to why they প্রণয় Merlin and left out, wait for it, I know আপনি can't guess, the Queen, yeah, the one with a moderately higher melanin count. Sooooo surprising. The excuse, and it is an excuse, used দ্বারা the moderator was, again wait, tis so special....they had 2 hours of sleep and they adore, yes, adore Guinevere sooooooo much, but couldn't find her graphic, just the three they like to promote, including on the GAME recently in beta release. Now, someone else in the fandom managed, as difficult as it was to make her crest, relatively easily...AMAZING no?

Tired of your bullshit SHINE. In fact, আপনি enable the racist self inserters with ready alacrity. Wonder why that is? Perhaps the শীর্ষ of the খাবার chain on SHINE has an agenda, the darky so annoys দ্বারা her presence.

SCREW YOU.

She has millions of অনুরাগী and আপনি are not the centre of the universe অথবা your personal preferences. She merits representation. That is all. The world is far আরো than one shade in fact the majority of this world isn't pink...get fucking use to it.

আপনি enable with your bullshit lack of promotion of one of your most talented actors and allow these asswipes to think they are in the right. THEY ARE WRONG.

Don't screw with a class act like অ্যাঞ্জেল Coulby.

See link and crests are imbedded.

MOPENDRAGON AMEN and AMEN!!! I saw the Merlin Confession in question and reblogged my disgust with the Queen's likeness being left out but a freaking dragon pic included. How on earth can you create a post about loving the Merlin cast and leave out the damn Queen of Camelot...SMH. I didn't know this bruhaha started with more racist exclusionary behavior on the part of SHINE. Man, if I was Angel I'd go Brooklyn on those mothafathas at SHINE and tell them to kiss my black/brown ass. And hello where the f&%k is the Queen Gwen doll...I'm still waiting 5 damn seasons later.

EPaws Oh darling the general grovelling that is going on with respect to tumblr right now. Well you know as she is brown the doll might require a bit more baking you know unlike the others. Can you say bullshit? Nah...one of these days I would love SHINE to disappoint, they are costing themselves so much money with short sighted racism. Complete fools. It is almost laughable if it were not so pathetic.

Nasty_Nat You said it sister. Belinda, they are just haters. There're all always be haters. They just don't get it, both us in here do, that what's important really. Thank you Stace for sharing this with us.

Nasty_Nat Stace, love just how you put. I totally agree with you. It's just sad how much they are spending instead are doing something constructive or just admit what's in from them. If they could just stop and think, they would get it like we do here.

ellarose88 I saw this this morning and just.... It's just wrong and the problem is that Shine doesn't help with it seeing as they rarely promote Angel/Gwen in promotional stuff when they have the perfect opportunity to do so. After all they are the ones that hired Angel because she is a wonderful actress.

EPaws Correction. The producers hired Angel, not the Marketing arm of the show. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.

ellarose88 Oh yeah oops there! But my point is that the producers should have a say in the way the show is promoted and make sure that Angel is included.

Lucerne28 Sigh. Can not say that i am surprised. Probably why we still have no news on the photo shoot that was to take place with Bradley and Angel. Does anyone know if that photo shoot is even still on? I haven't seen/read anything on twitter or tumblr about the shoot. Last thing i read was that it was to take place at the end of August.

lailastar Do these assholes realize that alot of fans watch Merlin because of Angel Coulby. I was drawn to the show because of the romance between Guinevere and Arthur not anything else. Most of the rest was immature and bad writing. The success of the show with those above ten yrs old is the romance component of the show, without it, I would have been bored and lose interest a few seasons ago.

EPaws I'm positive you will get the photoshoot. I don't actually think that is at issue to be honest. As the journalist said it would be done around the shooting. Now to my knowledge they will be shooting at Pierrefonds, 11, 12, and 13th. A short stint as already stated. As to the rest of the comments above....in total agreement. Laters, running very late this morning.

MISAforever my 5 year old cousin is more mature. All I have to say.

HumbleQueen What now. I hope you're right, Stacey.

EPaws I am.

kbrand5333 My son didn't even notice that people had different color skin until he was about 4. I am not even kidding. Everyone at Shine should be forced to read Dr. Seuss' "The Sneetches" UNTIL THEY GET IT.

EPaws The Sneetches....hmmm I don't have that one, thanks.

kbrand5333 Dr. Seuss is the freaking shit. It's my favorite children's story. Had my grandmother get a copy for Simon for Christmas. Before he was born. (A department store in the area often has books paired with stuffed toy characters with a portion of the proceeds to charity. The book around Christmas time before the boy was born -- in early February, so it wasn't THAT far off -- was "The Sneetches." I was immediately all, "GET THIS FOR HIM." And he also got a stuffed sneetch toy as well!)

kbrand5333 Aha. The cartoon version. Lovely. But the book is worth owning, especially if you have smalls. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3yJomUhs0g

EPaws Dr Seuss is the shit and am going to watch now. One of my gurus dontchya know? Thank you, love. Gone to watch now.

kbrand5333 I can't believe you don't know The Sneetches, honestly.

tmko It is inspiring to come here and read from open minded and loving people. I suspect that tv productions that contain diverse cast members receive backlash, threats and hate messages from audiences who cannot tolerate images of race mixing. Those "haters" seem to be powerful enough to shut down many good programs (at least it seems so in the US. e.g. Life on Mars, Lie to Me and Hawthorne) It would be nice if there was an 'indie' global media outlet that could support Merlin, uncensored. And fuck NBC and other major media corporations.

EPaws ^ TMKO totally agree. No Kim. Until you no, I didn't and I am Seuss person. Go figure.

sportyshuie I just don't get it sometimes ... all these hate towards Gwen/Angel which is getting way out of control nowadays. I am Asian and we have people of all colours living together and Merlin is such a popular series in my country but it's not Arthur or Merlin who draws the crowd ... it's Gwen/Angel. Their love for her is simple and honest; she's lovely, she's brilliant, she's talented and above all ... she relates to all of us. I'm not saying to win this conversation but that is the truth. The arwen romance is the one that lights up the series and without it, without our angel/gwen the series would have fallen flat in first couple of seasons. And still she doesn't get the recognition she deserves ... not even a spot for her picture for promotion. Perhaps if angel was cast as morgana, probably she'd be on the cover of all types of promotion shots, covers etc because she is evil and deserves to be scorned. But our Angel happens to play the part of one of the most powerful female figure in history and since she's brown/black, she can be ignored. Because the dragon is more important. Yes .. now i see it, it shares the same colour as Gwen unfortunately and there can only be one brown in the spot. Geez! and yes,mopendragon ... i too am waiting for Gwen's doll but i seriously doubt if we will ever get it and even if we do get it, they'll definately screw it up.

EPaws Shushu I just saw your lovely post on my wall will address later. I need to pay more attention. Hugs and I agree with you on the above save one item, but not worth mentioning. Laters.

Episode 5x09 Discussion - After আপনি See It

posted by HumbleQueen

"With All My Heart"

When আপনি touch me like this
And when আপনি hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
When আপনি see me like this
And when I see আপনি like that
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now

It’s going to all come back to her, guys. I don’t know exactly what he’s going to do to bring it back, but he is. He’s going to make her remember what they’ve had together; he’s going to make her remember what he is to her. He’s going to make her...

    Arthur fixes his tie and cuffs his sleeve. He adjusts his শার্ট and looks himself in the mirror. He likes what he sees. Smiling, he turns around and walks back to his bed, picking up the socks before sitting down at the edge of the bed, resting one foot across his knee as he slides his socks on. Someone knocks at the door. Arthur looks up to see Uther standing দ্বারা the door, smiling at him. There is a box in his hand.
    “Father?” Arthur calls out, brows arching in surprise.

Gwen waits patiently as Reagan, Arthur’s lawyer, reads the letter প্রদত্ত দ্বারা Arthur through Gwen. Reagan is a man in his late fifties but he hardly looks his age. If Gwen didn’t know anything about him, she would have thought him to be in his forties. With his receding hairline, spectacles on the bridge of his nose and graying moustache he paints the portrait of a man who takes his works quite seriously indeed. He hardly looked at her as his eyes were busy পাঠ করা the lines of the letter and the only time he actually looked at her was to cough and then that was...

“Are আপনি sure আপনি are not coming? Lancelot wants me to persuade আপনি and he isn’t going to be satisfied with your answer, Arthur,” Gwen says as she arranges the vegetables inside the refrigerator. She did to do some shopping at Arthur on Merlin’s request. Though she didn’t know what the lads needed, she practically bought most of the vegetables and products on sale.
Arthur, seated at the dining table, shakes his head. “I have some things to get done here… sorry, sweetheart. Send my wishes to Morgana and tell Lancelot I’m sorry…...

Pendragons: Heirs অথবা No Heirs?

posted by EPaws

Now it is subtle, but I am beginning to hear rumblings of discontent on tumblr about the usual lazy লেখা on Merlin and আরো to the point the proposed lack of heirs for the Pendragons. My view? Can we wait and see how the story arc goes please before starting to get pitchforks out? In some they have sons, in some they do not? Let us see how this is played out. Now, true to form this প্রদর্শনী has never done even vaguely well for continuity, intelligence, much less a proper story arc what with the cop out for tremendously lazy লেখা often used so there need not be any character development through...egads...

Arthur lifts his lids open and stares at the darkness surrounding him. It’s the same each day, darkness blanketing everything from him, leaving him veiled with emptiness. He’s used to it দ্বারা now, but soon all that will change. He’s প্রদত্ত himself hope and with that hope comes the yearning to get his wish granted soon as possible. He’s getting agitated; ever since he declared his plans, he’s been unable to hold back his enthusiasm. He wants everything to be done quickly, to get it all over with. He knows he is asking too much, there’s much to be done before...

Elena pushes her hair behind her ears and adjusts the hem of her স্কার্ট for the third time that night. Her nervousness is obvious দ্বারা the way she sits in Arthur’s presence. In front of her, Arthur sits quietly, clutching the cane in his hand as if it was his life saver. They have been in the Godwyn’s household for almost three hours and since he arrived here, he kept his conversation to a minimum. A hello, a nod when necessary, a smile if needed and another hello is all he’s been saying around. He knows why he is here. His father had been clear cut about his...
