    This show is woke and very disrespectfull to nordic culture, by changing gender and race of the historical Jarl Hakoon. This blackwash and "femalewash" only serves the political progressive agenda. I 'm not gonna watch the next seasons. Miss the old Vikings show....

    They are the prettiest, cleanest, best-dressed and best-haired Vikings on TV. It's really hard to immerse yourself in the story it tells us.
    Forget historical accuracy. It just doesn't recreate how the Vikings were supposed to live.

    Horrific. 0 interest in story, characters, or theme, every effort to be as woke as possible. Why do so many sad excuses of tv shows get made iver and over again?

    The worst TV series ever. It lacks of originality in the story and theme and even the dialogs are full of lane cliché phrases that maybe only a teen may have not heard about yet. Then, the black Viking is not the best approach to understand history but only a repetitive whim from producers. Things like these will make cinema be exchanged for video games or something else.

    The wokeness KILLS the IMMERSION! Notice the first reviews on here are all paid bot reviews. The characters lack depth and the story kind of goes no where. The action is horrible. Vikings, known for the ruthlessness, have many one on one fights and no one dies or are injured. No consequences for anyone's actions. Boring, woke, and dumb.

    I was so excited for this show because I like submerse myself into the time period that was the Viking Age. I'm not trying to come off intolerant but when you replace the last Pagan viking king of Norway (Haakon) with a black woman it completely ruins the authenticity of the original series. The fact remains that there were never Black Vikings. Anyone that says otherwise is a idealistI was so excited for this show because I like submerse myself into the time period that was the Viking Age.

    As a huge fan of the original series made by History Channel this was hard to watch. This show was teed up for success and flopped in every way. If you are a fan of the history channels Vikings series do yourself a favor and skip this one. If you have not seen the original history channel coming series do yourself a favor and watch that instead.

    Casting russian actress to play a daughter of russian noble family, when there were no russia in 9th century at all and saying that Yaroslav the Wise is a ruler of "Northern russia" is not only historically inacurate but offensive as hell

    The leader of all vikings is a black woman? Why not give her a jet pack with machine guns, too? Oh, and a nuclear submarine. At this point, the show is just fantasy. If I wanted that, I'd watch Dr. Who.

    People like historic shows because it's like a window into the past, but when you change it too much, it's no longer a historic show. The more you think about it, the less sense it

    The setup is good. The Vikings sail to England for revenge, and characters must form an unholy alliance, but shortly after, the whole purpose of the show dissolves, leaving the vikings with no purpose. I quit halfway through Ep 3.

    In this successor to Valhalla, you will continue where you stopped.
    It is nothing but an uninspired, content-boring and weakly played series, nobody needs in this style.

    I only watched 6 episodes then I decided I couldn’t take it anymore. I don’t think any Viking warlord in 1002 Scandinavia would allow an African woman to become the leader of one of the most important Viking cities. If this was a story based in Africa in the 1000’s and black characters were gender and race swapped with white people there would be a huge uproar about how racist the show is.I only watched 6 episodes then I decided I couldn’t take it anymore.

Can we just focus on making good tv for once rather then ticking a diversity box? If the action was good I would be able to ignore the other issues with this show but even the action is woke with 90 pound women fighting multiple armed men twice their size and winning. Expand

    This is utter trash like the last seasson of vikings, boring, uninspired, vikings died with the dead of ragnar and is a fact, all beyond is trash.

    The vast audience for Vikings is clearly the target for Valhalla, and those viewers won’t be disappointed, but they also won’t be blown away; the show takes a while to find its way.

    Just like its parent show, Vikings: Valhalla is not going to be everyone’s cup of tea. But for fans of the genre, Valhalla does a good job of continuing the story established in Vikings.

    So, sure, the show can sometimes feel like a montage of strapping, bearded men introducing themselves to each other before beating each other up. But “Valhalla” also demonstrates enough ambition and handle on its characters and pivotal time period to justify diving into its world, no matter how much you may have known about it before taking the plunge.
