I love this show!! Ragnar...started out awesome... Now he's just screwing up,left and right! Now, Largetha is acting all friggin timid!! What the hell happened!!! I blame that homewrecking auslaug for everything!! No, I don't she's sort of cool too

Double billing.

Wow, I didn't know season 2 had started! Yippie!!
I'll be watching it tonight :)

Watched all 4 episodes tonight, really getting into it again, now I gotta wait another 4 days, boohoo. Love Vikings!!
Effing English barbarians for crucifying that poor bastard! Talk about the pot calling the kettle black, they're just as bad as the Vikings.

going to watch the latest episode today..yay.

Watched the latest ep tonight, wonderful! Those were the days, I wanna be a Viking woman, hahaha. Love the series!!

when she rides away on the white horse after saying the line to her son.....priceless.

Ok I guess I better clean up my DVR and get caught back up...lol.

Historical embellishment for the sake of drama kind of annoyed me. Only got through 6 episodes and kind of lost interest. Ragnar's wife is a babe however, it was really her that kept me going for the 6 episodes.

Fun thought, whenever they're drinking "mead" throughout the show (constantly) keep in mind how vikings made it. Ground grain with some honey, then all the "warrior-brothers" spat in the bowl. It was the spittle that fermented it.
They're drinking each other's spit.
It appears for the sake of not grossing out audiences the producers have separated historical viking mead production from the practise of drinking alcohol by allegorically depicting method using a communal wash/rinse bowl in which the vikings blow their snot then the next one washes his face in it. Well actually that's how they made mead, not cleaned up.

Considering probably 50% of drunkeness was likely more to do with bacterial infection than intoxication it's not really that surprising they had such a fatalistic cultural/religious ideology.
Regarded as a method of reinforcing community, it's also not so surprising becoming sickly was a greater crime than many offences of criminal intent.

Trust me, you would not want to live in a viking world. Not a real one, the series is utter fictional depiction for fantasy entertainment.

first in line for the fantasy entertainment

DAng, season 2 has ended, booohooooo
Gotta wait till 2015 for more Viking "fun". Friggin 2015!?!?! Why?! Way too long!
