Vikings (On Dat Der History Channel)

Started by Dreampanther7 pages

Holy awesomeness, Batgirl, last week's episode was excellent. Slow start but two absolutely WTF moments that more than made up for it. And I'm now more in awe of Lagertha than ever before.

Well, she did tell Kalf that

Spoiler:
she would take back everything he stole from her when he wasn't expecting it, last season. So I kind of saw it coming at some point. And she was damn clever about it too. She waited until he had taken out all her enemies in a previous episode before making her move. And now Erlendur is in a pretty bad position, because his last real ally is dead and Bjorn is likely coming for him.

My prediction is that in this season a lot of people are going to get f@@@@@@@@@@@@@cked up.

Did this show legit show an out of body sex scene? Like, w-wha?

I'm still not sure what exactly that was about. My best guess is that it was

Spoiler:
Floki getting his first vision and seeing Aslaug's betrayal
.

So random and uneccessery, haha.

Latest episode was okay. I'm kind of getting tired of sick Ragnar. At this rate he'll probably keel over before he has a chance of getting thrown into the snake pit.

Also Auslaug has zero ability to carry a narrative thread. She was always a boring character, but she's gotten extra tedious now.

I skip all her scenes. 🙂

Yeah, he's getting pretty stupid and unlikeable, wish he'd grow his hair back and go back to being the interesting and likeable character he used to be.

Aslaug is a snore-fest, her current arch with Viking-stud is the worst part of the show.

On a positive note, Bjorn's getting better and better and Loki is consistently good.

Rollo is the best part of the show right now. Though, that's not saying much.

I've always found Aslaug highly unlikable. Always preferred Lagertha.

And Ragnar seems more crazy than sick nowadays. But that is likely because that Chinese cow seemingly turned him into an opium fiend, and now he hits massive withdrawal when he doesn't get his fix.

It is good to see Bjorn coming into his own though. Also happy that Floki is no longer the outcast, now that people have moved on from the Holy Apple stand's death.

I'd say it's Bjorn.

He's starting to become a greater viking than Ragnar like that freakshow foresaw.

Last ep was pretty great.

The last episode was great, and I am really amped to see how things go during the second half. The whole

Spoiler:
jumping a few years in the time line is also quite convenient, so that we skip the rest of Ragnar's rehab/recovery. Like others, I was getting bored with that whole plot point by now.

It's weird how Bjorn's younger brother looks older than him lol

He has the Benjamin Button disease, have a little compassion in your hear

I got rid of my compassion years ago.

Some news on episode 11 and when the show might be returning:

The time jump
was interesting. Similar technique was used in Banshee to move the plot forward. While I think it can be overused, it does add a bit of energy and mystery to a series.

Finally, a great episode. The Ragnar/Rollo fight was great. And yes, Rollo was a badass loved his speech. I'm thinking that this was the character's exit and it was a damn good one.

Also, the time skip has me intrigued. Though, I feel the episode should have ended with the Bjorn and Floki scene.
