Can I just say that I will literally *kill* someone for a Digital Circus musical episode, it would be hilarious because **none** of the characters would want to participate, like Zooble would go mute to not sing, Pomni wouldn't know how to stop herself from singing and have another panic attack, Kinger and Ragatha would be confused but ultimately go along with it, Jax would probably be obnoxious about it or would be extremely annoyed and Gangle would probably go silent as well because she's to shy to sing in front of the others.
Welcome to my TED talk.
Why must every kids TV show have a musical episode?! ðŸ˜
now i'm just thinking about that race to the edge episode where everyone randomly starts singing
We were robbed honestly
Imagine if you will a curse gone wrong-
We get the whole castle and town exploding into song, and a refrain and melody developing that echoes through the rest of the songs, maybe asking if things will ever return back to normal
There's an opera style back and forth between Uther and Gaius about the cause of the curse and whether it's dangerous, they don't resolve anything
Uther tasks Arthur with rooting out the cause, and it's a kind of call and answer, with Arthur following Uther's orders
We get Morgana, terrified her magic will be found out. Her song transforms into an "I want" song, maybe she wants fairness, maybe revenge, maybe power
The knights have a barbershop quartet thing going on and we love that for them
Merlin finds the cause, and maybe the curse is ultimately deadly although it seems innocuous enough. Maybe people are already starting to feel the ill effects. He needs help, but he just has to get someone to believe him. Cue his moment to sing, appealing to Arthur and the knights his voice turns out to be so sweet and heartbreaking (see Colin Morgan's work with PJ Harvey) and to his surprise everyone rallies around
We get a song with Merlin, Arthur, the knights and maybe others like Gwen and Gaius working together to fix the problem, the song builds to a crescendo and stops short the moment the spell is seemingly broken
It cuts to the next day and some normal speech indicates that their efforts worked. But Arthur hovers just outside this chambers because Merlin is cleaning inside and is singing as he works, his singing finally resolves the melody. Arthur laughs quietly and enters the room
The End
merlin should have had a musical episode
