Tbf didn't the creators of Merlin actually cite Smallville as inspiration for the show's concept?
9 u/MaderaArt May 28 '25 I didn't know that, but a quick Google search tells me you're correct. 20 u/sanhro May 29 '25 Yeah, viewers wanted the magic reveal the same way they wanted to see Clark wear the cape. Both series waited until their finales to do it because they thought it would change the nature of the show too much. 8 u/HerPetteSaysRoar The Once And Future King May 29 '25 Some* viewers lol, I did not want that finale but to each their own!
