This show is badass. Character develpoment has been top quality. There is a ton of death and destruction. Hell I even like the story line of the priest being tempted to change his ways to those of the multi-god heathens.

Ragnar is a bad ***. They did an outstanding job with the Earl's development.

I loathe the Earl with the fire of a thousand suns. I'd say that is what the writers were looking for.

Absolutely amazing show. Just wish we could see "more" of Lagertha. And I'm anxious to see where they're going with the Earl's wife. She's bat-**** crazy in all the most awesome ways.

My wife says Ragnar will be the next Brad Pitt...he is hotter than 5,000 suns she says. If he is like 5,000 suns hot, his wife is like 10,000 suns hot...

The Earl's wife is a freak for sure

Also how about the sharing of wives? These dudes are running a golden gate bridge after breakfast and then going out to kill and steal. It's like grand theft auto of the ancient world.

Beat me to it WM, I'd hit it before Helen in Clinton and more often. I read where she was a 3rd degree black belt at age 13, does her own stunts in the show. She is a bad *** ginger

I'm hooked as well. I hope Ragnar kills the Earl and the Earls fat little helper. Also on a related note, Bryce Harper looks just like Ragnar.

Great show, I can't wait for earls fat buddy

To get his due. The Vikings had an interesting hair style wouldn't be surprised to see a few reverse mullets start showing up on some of you dudes.

The Ragnar actor is like Charlie Hunnan from Sons of Anarchy. Women love that bad boy image mixed with the looks.
I love the shield maiden, Ragnars wife, but I would even lay it to Siggy...the ******** wife.

My DVR informs me a new episode is on tonight, Ancient Astronauts is tonight's topic. I'm sure it's brilliant. Also, thanks to this thread I started watching Vikings onDemand about three hours ago. I've now watched four episodes. Thanks.

I have recorded every episode. I love the show. It is very realistic. Ragnar becomes a King of the Vikings. Aella is confronted well after he has become KING of the VIKINGS and been bought off by Paris! Yep, the sagas say he is thrown in a pit of poisonous snakes, but there were no poisonous snakes in the British Isles?

Screw the ancient aliens. I want to see the Vikings find the black hole at the seafloor of the Bermuda Triangle (they really did do a show that claimed there is a black hole in the Bermuda Triangle).

The real genius was whoever put Vikings right behind The Bible mini-series. Great show + left over audience= success. Plus, it's the best show on TV right now.

I read yesterday there are 4 more shows this season including the April 28 finale and it has been renewed for 10 more episodes to begin filming this summer.

My thoughts exactly. The earl's got nothing on his little fat sidekick. He was already on my bad side, but when that little goblin stuck Ragnor with an arrow in the last episode, I was ready to watch him get an axe to the forehead
