Yeah, this is staying good so far. His wife is fucking KILLING my balls. leaves me aching so hard. Strategic blood spatter on her face = tougher more nordic version of Scarlet Johanson.

Maybe because of its proximity to The Bible series on History Channel, I got a sudden whiff of earnest Christianity when the slave priest prayed and the music went heavy on the strings, and I grew afraid that the whole series will be a sneaky way of converting us all under the guise of rad heathen Odin-lovers who smash crucifixes and spit out the holy eucharist and slash priest throats. Please don't let this happen.

Liked episode 5, but episode 6 was kinda wtf...
SPOILERSPOILER_SHOW
First of all, that ridiculous montage with the seer showing up out of nowhere to explain Ragnarök to the ignorant Christian. And then... Ælla gets the snakepit ready? Apparently one of the versions of Ragnar Lothbrok's life has him captured by Ælla and tossed into a snakepit, but... the show's been renewed for a 2nd season. So they're going to have him escape? Meh.
I do like the monk going native, though. Not what I was expecting.

Episode 4, wherein they raid Lindisfarne... plenty of Hvitakristr for ya, Chad.
Mostly, his effeminate followers being slaughtered.

All caught up now. The landscape shots in this are gorgeous. I guess it's filmed in Ireland? I need to head there within the next few years.

That shit was hilariously awesome. Should have sounded like this:

And then... Ælla gets the snakepit ready?
Yeah, some seriously cliched comic book villainy from him all of a sudden. :tdown:

:tup: I liked everybody drinking their ale out of horns too.

Rollo has so got to pull the mother/daughter hat trick...

Katheryn Winnick had some minor part in a CSI episode years ago, and I've had a boner for her ever since. So glad she's finally getting her day in the sun.

The writing and acting in this show is so far ahead of probably everything but maybe two shows on television right now. I can forgive historical misgivings for something this good.

How many Christians did I kill, Floki? HOW MANY? DO YOU THINK ODIN IS STILL ANGRY WITH ME?

Episode ruled so hard.

The only time that chicks face doesn't look like an alien is when she's covering it up with giant glasses.

Boobs look martian too.

Finally watched the first episode of season 2 and I loved it. Lots of groundwork laid down for the entire season and the preview after the show was :mastoman:.

looked like they cast another actor as grown-up Bjorn and he's splitting skulls later?! :moreawesome:

Am I the only one watching this? Season 2 is so much better than the first one and the writing feels a lot more confident this season. The English King (Thomas Wayne from Batman Begins!) is such a schemer I love it.

That reunion at the end of the latest episode :cry: :rhug: :lhug:

I'm totally going to watch it and I'm very happy to hear it's an improvement from the first season. I just haven't had time yet because I, um, I'm playing Dark Souls 2 all the time. Lemme finish watching True Detective first.

Watched the very first episode the other day. Didn't really click with me. Does season 1 improve vastly as it goes on?
