As fantasty series go, Syfy’s Merlin has got pretty much everything you could want. Action, drama, suspense, a good cast and lots of magic. Like we said, pretty much everything you could ask for in a fantasy series.

The show is back on Syfy now and in its fifth season. And as we’ve done before, we’re going to be bringing you previews of new episodes as we get them.

To kick things off this week, we’ve got a preview for Friday’s episode “The Kindness of Strangers.” In this one, Morgana realizes the path to Emrys and the throne of Camelot might just be quickest going through the powerful wizard Alator.

We’ll see if she’s right. Or, if she’s made a bit of a mistake.

Check out the preview after the break and look for Merlin Friday, May 10 at 10/9C on Syfy.

While Hollywood has proven that magicians may look cool, they definitely don’t always rake in the big bucks across the globe. It’s been shown time and time again with films like The Prestige, The Illusionist, and The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. Though, for that last one, we blame Nic Cage.

It looks like Working Title films, the company behind the series The Tudors and the film Hot Fuzz, are now working on a brand new adaptation of the classic Merlin tale, which will take the old wizard to modern day.

The script comes from historical novel author Jay Basu, who plans on rebooting King Arthur’s spiritual wizard in a “contemporary setting.” Expect to see the film to keep a prominent British cast, as most of the films from Working Title are done out of the UK.

Not much is known about the script or what we can expect from the film, but you can expect to see plenty of respect paid to the character, as legendary actors like Sam Neill, Ben Kingsley, and Donald Pleasence have donned the robe and pointy hat at one point.

Keep it here for more news on this film as it develops.

Clip Friday continues and this time around we’ve got a preview of tonight’s season finale of Merlin as well as another preview for next week’s season premiere of Warehouse 13.  Both of these shows are, of course, on Syfy.

First up on Merlin the friendship between Arthur and Merlin – as well as the strength of Camelot itself – is put to the test as they search for a way to stop a vicious attack by the Great Dragon in “The Last Dragonlord.” Next up on Warehouse 13 it’s a conversation with series co-star Allison Scagliotti as she explains her wardrobe style on the show. As a fan of the show, not something you want to miss.

Enjoy both clips after the jump. The season finale of Merlin airs tonight at 10/9C and Warehouse 13 premieres on Tuesday, July 6th at 9/8C on Syfy.

It’s Friday so that means previews of tonight’s shows on Syfy. This week, however, we’ve only got a preview of tonight’s Merlin to share with you. But don’t worry, this episode of the show has enough going on so we don’t really need anything else.

In the preview for tonight’s episode, called “The Fires of Idirsholas,” Merlin’s loyalty is pushed to the limit by Morgause’s plan for revenge. What will Merlin do and how will he manage to keep his word yet prevent an even bigger disaster from happening? Tune in tonight to find out.

Before that, check out the preview for tonight’s episode after the jump. Merlin airs on Syfy at 10/9C.

As we’ve been doing for the past weeks with Stargate Universe and Merlin, we’ve got new show promos to share with you again today. However, with Stargate Universe having its season finale last week, the focus now shifts to the upcoming premiere of Syfy’s Warehouse 13.

So, to start us off right we’ve got two clips from Warehouse 13 to share with you as well as a clip from tonight’s episode of Merlin. Fist up on Warehouse 13 check out the team coming back with a vengeance after last season’s cliffhanger ending.

On Merlin, the boy wizard sees a new side to Morgana when Mordred returns seeking her help. Will this turn out to be a good thing or yet another sign that Merlin may have some trouble on his hands? Check out the video and tonight’s episode for all the answers.
