Steve Bruce Almighty 2,945 Posted March 9, 2017 It is very good but I thought the 4th season dragged in places. The historical inaccuracies bugged me a little but I got over it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well i guess they had to make it made up to become more interesting. I will still give it a go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cocaine 3 Posted March 12, 2017 Superb series. Travis Fimmel as Ragnar Lothbrok was a brilliant piece of acting. *Spoiler coming...* Not sure how good it will be going forward without him (I know it had to come some time) - we'll see... but IF Lagertha stays in it then it will be worth watching still!

6666 858 Posted March 12, 2017 I think it's best to not go into it expecting historical accuracy. Just treat it as any other TV show and it'll be enjoyable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair It's still true enough to history that you can easily spoil the main pays of it for yourself by reading up on viking history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True Blue 851 Posted December 5, 2017 The first two episodes of season five were merely an introduction for bigger things. The show looks like they increased their budget as it is fairly popular now. Can't wait for Thursday (in Bosnia) for the new episode to premiere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viva la FCB 1,063 Posted December 19, 2017 So im up to date but heres my thoughts so far: The show isnt the same without Ragnar and Athelstan (to a lesser degree). They where the two strongest and most interesting characters. With Ragnar alive they could keep the most important parts of Athelstan alive because he partly lived through Ragnar. With both gone the only hope was really Bjorn. I think Bjorn could have taken the mantle but with him seemingly intent on raiding the other side of the world hes merely a background character. Its a pity, focusing on Ivar isnt the same. I really dont care about him, ok hes this evil death wielding cripple mastermind destined for great things. I just dont care, he doesnt have the depths to him that Ragnar had nor even Bjorn to some extent. It leaves me watching somewhat disinterested, even on the Lagertha front i dont care either what happens. Dont get me wrong ill keep watching, but they have focused on the wrong character since Ragnars story has passed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spike 2,733 Posted December 31, 2017 I don't think I could handle this show's depiction of history without losing a few marbles. Everyone knows Viking's were vicious mauraders in bright colours that were obsessed with hair perfumes and primping their hair. They were concerned with cleanliness and had retarded hairstyles that were shaved at the back and long at the front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viva la FCB 1,063 Posted March 27, 2018 Well what did you guys think about the first half? Im a little underwhelmed. I did like the finale mind you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
True Blue 851 Posted March 27, 2018 Finale was decent, however not as keen on it as when Ragnar ruled. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devil-Dick Willie 1,725 Posted May 14, 2018 Watching the first season. Never new the vikings had a culture of being wife sharing cucks. Also I choose to believe Ragnar and his male model friends secretly want to sail to milan for the fashion shows. With haircuts and fashion like theirs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True Blue 851 Posted December 13, 2019 Anyone seen the opening two episodes of season 6? Pretty decent with a lot of things to go down. Also it's the final season of the series Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
