Phil Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Fantastic debut episode. The cinematography is beautiful, and the story is great, because it's taking on a traditional role in an untraditional atmosphere filled wtih anti-heros, like Rangar. This is definitely right up the alley of anyone who loves these types of historical dramas based on barbaric cultures like Vikings. Game of Thronies, for example, should probably give this a go.

momentum Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Yes I really think the storyline seems to be fantastic, you just can't wait to see how things are going to go down. Very well cast as well IMO, i like all the actors who seem to fit their roles perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger Lothbrok Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Poop. I didn't watch any of the first few episodes. I'll have to see if they'll re-air them, or if History channel has an On Demand function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Is it because you're Scandinavian? :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momentum Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Is it because you're Scandinavian? :rofl: Well I probably have a stronger interest in Viking culture than the average person since they were ancestors of mine but I think the show is great so far regardless of that, it's a show that anyone should be able to enjoy if you're interested whatsoever in history or even if you just like adventures with ppl going on the hunt for the unknown and use swords and axes killing each other etc.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I hear ya. I still have to see the 2nd episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Nice little swerve last night with Rollo. I figured he'd flip on Ragnar for sure, since he's in love with his wife. Fastest way to her would have been to eliminate Rag and get him sentenced to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momentum Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 I hear ya. I still have to see the 2nd episode. I think it has gotten steadily better with each episode with the 4th being the best so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/history-renews-vikings-second-season-433243 The cable network has ordered 10 more episodes for its first scripted drama created by Michael Hirst, it was announced Friday by Dirk Hoogstra, executive vp development and programming for History. Production on season two will begin in the summer with a premiere in 2014. "Vikings is a win win for us. As our first scripted series, Vikings has paid off in a big way with critical acclaim, strong ratings and a passionate, loyal fan base. It came out of the gate strong and has stayed on top, solidifying History as a major player in the scripted genre, just as we are in reality,? said Hoogstra. ?We could not be more proud of the entire cast and crew and everyone involved in the making of Vikings. Michael Hirst has captured audiences with his complex, compelling characters and brought the unknown, epic world of these warriors to life." Vikings debuted strong in early March to 6.2 million viewers, helping propel History to No. 1 in its 10 p.m. Sunday time slot. Over the first five weeks, Vikings has averaged 5 million viewers, with 2.2 million among adults 25-54 and 1.9 million in 18-49. For its most recent episode, the drama drew 4.7 million viewers.
