Hate to interrupt the regularly schedule baseball & QB bitchfests, but is anyone else watching Vikings on History? F'n badass. Just wish it was on a premium channel so we could see more of Lagertha.

Yep... my Sunday night doubleheader is Walking Dead/Vikings right now, and it may currently be my favorite tv night of the week. With Game of Thrones coming back at the end of this month, I don't know what I'm going to do.

Anyway, while Vikings hasn't quite jumped out and grabbed me right off the bat like GoT and a few others, I think it's going to be a really good show. You can tell that things are going to be heating up very soon, and they are definitely pushing the cable TV boundaries. The whole attempted threesome with the priest was a little weird, but I guess I have to give them a thumbs up for effort. You definitely wouldn't see that on many shows outside of HBO and Showtime. Like most AMC shows, there are a lot of great characters in Vikings too. The wife is awesome, and it's looking like the King(or whatever he is), the king's wife, and the little right hand man are going to be great villains.

I thought when the priest went to shave that he was gonna shave the whole head and take on the Viking broad. Nope. That one is strong with The Lord.

I thought he'd shave his whole head, too.....

But his slow conversion to the Viking way will be pretty cool.

And the Earl and his right hand man are definitely going to be great villains. The Earl's wife is batshit crazy and needs more screen time.

I'm also interested to see the brothers turn on each other, especially if it's over Lagertha. That's got epic potential.

The Earls wife is a great character. And the little Phil Collins looking henchman is well cast also.

i tried to watch The Bible too but just could not stay focused. Quay Evans was Samson. That's the real reason he wasn't on the 2deep.
