    Just watched "At the Gates." .... First year, it was a magnificent show. A provocative and thoughtful spectacle. It's slowly morphing towards insulting.

    Is anyone getting tired of being let down by thoughtless dialogue -- Count Odo: "Don't let them through the gates, and definitely not into the city." Duh. I thought you gave me the armor to roof my house and spear to clean my
    Just watched "At the Gates." .... First year, it was a magnificent show. A provocative and thoughtful spectacle. It's slowly morphing towards insulting.

    Is anyone getting tired of being let down by thoughtless dialogue -- Count Odo: "Don't let them through the gates, and definitely not into the city." Duh. I thought you gave me the armor to roof my house and spear to clean my teeth?? Or the silly switching from English to French with subtitles by the French, or English to Norse with subtitles by the gang?

    How about the way those vikings ran straight into some kind of spear launcher, then skedaddled like bunnies after it was empty and unable to fire again?!

    And poor Floki. The most complex and best played character of the bunch is now a one-dimensional, obsessed Tai Chi-ing lunatic consumed by adolescent self pity.

    Yet, still I watch....

    I enjoyed the show up until the sex and porn, I gave the show numerous chances and watched it up until mid season 3. Even though Vikings are all about raping and pillaging, I don't wish to watch porn. I am sick of all the sex on TV and its getting way out of hand with all the perverts in Hollywood and in the Networks. I stopped watching the show after the episode tonight.

    Hirst transports us to a fascinating and brutal world, combining fact with fast-paced fiction into a show, the likes of which come around all too infrequently. As Ragnar does, so too does Season Three of Vikings expand its worldview beyond the inlet at Kattegat and into Medieval Europe, promising battles, glory, and adventures not to be missed.

    Michael Hirst's saga of pillaging and migration remains everything it has been almost from its premiere.

    Here is a series for an American audience that grants us the intelligence to be able to read subtitles, which are deployed to help convey the tart flavor of the various tongues spoken in the show. Combine this with the show’s frequently lovely visuals, and Vikings remains the kind of burly soap opera that appeals to an ever-wider audience.
