    It’s fun, no more, no less. Bit of history, bit of gore, bit of sex, bit of plot, lots of hair. As mindless distraction at a gruelling time, it will be hard to beat.

    After a well-paced opening episode the plot starts to drag, mainly when it focuses on a female character, Freydís Eiríksdóttir (Frida Gustavsson), back in Scandinavia while the main action takes place in England. It is much better when giving us battle scenes, or the machinations involving Æthelred's callow son, Edmund, and shrewd widow, Emma of Normandy.

This blackwash and "femalewash" only serves the political progressive agenda. I 'm not gonna watch the next seasons. Miss the old Vikings show.... Full Review »

    More woke agenda from Wokeflix. If you like woke revisionist history this show is for you.
