About this episode
The Violence Conductor dives into The Pendragon Cycle: Rise of Merlin (Daily Wire’s new fantasy series) — and let’s just say… expectations were high if you promise Merlin, magic, and knights swinging swords. After watching the first three episodes, the verdict is mixed.The show looks great and the sets are solid, but if you're expecting constant action and epic battles, you might find yourself waiting… and waiting… and waiting.The acting is decent, some characters show promise, and there are moments of cool combat—but strange editing choices, awkward pacing, and confusing time jumps make the experience a bit uneven. Is this a hidden fantasy gem that just needs time to warm up, or a visually impressive show that takes itself a little too seriously? Watch the breakdown and decide for yourself.You can support our work of educating filmmakers on the business side of showbusiness and keeping our festival and market costs affordable.Action Addicts Podcast© 2025 Action Addicts Podcast.
