    Rollo with a French accent and he's now Bjorn's dad, not liking it so far. I'll certainly finish it though.

    This season has been great. How many more episodes? Is this the last season? If so they have a lot of ground to cover

    There’s 10 episodes in this current group. Not sure how many have aired.

    They have another season next year in two 10 ep groups again.

    I wish they'd do away with the Floki scenes.

    That whole storyline sucks a big ole dick.

    Katheryn Winnick is an underrated beauty of this era, she stacks up with any woman

    Amazing season. The character arc of Bjorn has been incredible. From kid running for his life with his parents, to abandoned by his father, finding his own way in the world (and escaping assassination), traveling the world, then finding his way back to Kattegat and becoming king....how the fuck do more people not watch this show. Its better than Game of Thrones.

    It’s no where near as good as Game of Thrones and Vikings is one of my favorite shows. Its a great show but Game of Throne is much better on all levels.

    i can understand saying it’s not on the same level as GoT but saying it’s no where near it is ridiculous. Vikings is a damn good show with amazing character development

    Yeah but no where near as good of a story, character development, battles, scenery, acting, basically everything. Vikings is awesome but we’re also comparing a History Channel show to an HBO show. Also Vikings is better than Last Kingdom

    Agree with all of that, and I also think the last kingdom is excellent.

    Saw the preview where Ivar was saying something is impossible so very much hoping that's about Bjorn.

    Looking forward to how they wrap it up.
    Also good timing to come out with the Vikings assassins creed game being a new release. There's a ton of stuff that goes along with the show which it really tight.

    Hvitserk according to norse stories was pretty badass. Him being cast as a small fragile crybaby not a great choice. Supposedly his real name was Halfdan and he was king of London (Mercia) after leading the great heathen army you see in the show. Then became simultaneous king of both Dublin and York later in life.

    Bjorn was badass in history books too. Him and then his 2 sons were kings of Sweden for a couple hundred years.

    Ubbe was the only son of Ragnar that really didn't do cool viking shit. Kinda foreshadowing that in the show too he's a farmer that happens to be good at fighting

    Surprisingly not a ton of information out there about Ivar and his accomplishments

    I went on a long couple days of reading up on Ragnar & Sons inbetween seasons last year and was definitely caught off guard at the Ivar/Bjorn scene at the end of last season. Wasn't too surprised at Bjorn still being alive in the trailer... also considering he never fucking dies in the show when having things happen to him that would typically kill most humans

    I legitimately don’t know anyone IRL that doesn’t have an Amazon prime membership. Are you not?

    and if so, how do you shop for things?
