Its an entertaining show but its a bit of a stretch to call it history. Still good enough for watching.
I enjoy it, it’s just fun.
Who cares if it is true. Not sure if that was the intent. It is a great action series. Fun to watch.
I’m laid up today and tomorrow because of my wisdom teeth and watched the third and fourth episodes today. Ragnar reminds me of the kid from Sons Of Anarchy.
Stopped watching after Tarkenton retired.
My husband & I are totally hooked on this show. It’s so beautiful to see, and I love the attention to detail in the sets, costumes, etc. Also a great story. I was surprised Ragnar’s brother held fast & didn’t talk — I thought he’d sell him out. I’m just wondering if the Earl’s attack on Ragnar’s settlement (and who were all those other people? friends, slaves, family, what?) was outside the law. Looking forward to next week!!
Been watching from the beginning, and am enjoying it immensely. Travis Flimmel who plays Ragnor starred with Patrick Swayze in the A&E series “The Beast.” Swayze played a seasoned FBI agent, with Flimmel as his rookie partner. Sadly, Swayze passed away not long after the one and only season aired. I was hoping to see Flimmel again, and was glad to see him cast for this series.
History Chanel, or Dramatic History Channel? Still I like the show, but not as “HISTORY”!
Best Vikings since Kirk and Tony hung up their shields.
I hope that bald little bastard gets it in the end.
I am definitely enjoying it ;)
BUT... I have to wait for an upload to a torrent site so I can download it (and a couple of other series).
What’s the ACTUAL title....I’m looking to buy the DVD’s
Never mind....I found it...thanks for posting.
Historically, Rollo, from the Jarls (Earls) of Orkney, took his Normans (Norse Men)to France - where he signed a treaty with the king, making him hereditary Count of Rouen - Thus, we have ‘Normandy.”
His descendants were called Dukes of Normandy - down to William, Duke of Normandy - who attacked England and became “William the Conqueror”.
So, if they stick to history - don’t worry about Rollo ;o)
Now, Ragnar, on the other hand, has a rather viscious ending
Love the show....wondering where the captured english preist character leads us.
NOT!
great show, i enjoy it.
