yknow i have been watching versailles 2015 and turns out my favorite characters are the two guys most loyal to to the Sun King LouisXIV

It's Fabian Marchal (played by Tygh Runyan) and Alexandre Bontemps (played by Stuart Bowman)

now Marchal serves as the king's chief of police (like some kind of french fbi) while Bontemps is the "first valet of the bedchamber" (kinda like chief butler/head of household). If I think about it... they're basically Louis XIV pet dogs.

And I've been thinking... Merlin from the BBC Show basically perform these two's duties (plus being Arthur's doctor).

so while i applaud (from the bottom of my heart) Colin Morgan's performance...why do I detest Merlin's overall role in the palace so much?

What makes these guard dogs of versailles different from the guard dog of camelot?

I owe it to a lot of factors

Louis XIV respects these two a lot

They are a honest as heck

They know they are powerful and ruthless when they need to be.

The king knows and understands that and that's why he trusts them

Both of them are self aware enough to know when they are being assholes and dont deny it

They love what they do.

These two have real authority IN COURT bestowed upon them by the king.

They don’t work alone. They are smart and collaborate together and with others.

Merlin however... performs Bontemps job in the open but Marchal's job in secret.

The fault lies with BBC Arthur too.. he never rewarded Merlin with anything for all Merlin's services... unlike Louis XIV with these two. Merlin for all intents and purposes should have had been as powerful in the palace as Bontemps. He shouldn't have had to do the menial stuff anymore (on top of coordinating arthur's outfits, writing his speeches, managing palace security). But he was still made to do them.

So Merlin performs at least three major positions in Camelot (that should already be good enough for court):

chief manservant/valet,

secret head of palace security and

personal physician...

Arthur is only aware of one of those posts and thinks so lowly of Merlin that he keeps him in the same low af servant position for 8 years.

It's eye-opening.
