You are right. Vikings are pigs, but this series is fun (from an action/drama standpoint) and keeps me watching. First I must say that this episode was perfect. Nothing lame in it to critique for a change.
Still tired of Ragnor being a "stoner". lol. Glad the Chinese chick is fish food.
I really thought Bjorn was toast! Nice job with that shock in the episode. Had me fooled for that short period.
They really killed the feeling of time/reality with how fast those people chopped down a forest of trees and build all of that stuff to move the boats. Yeah right!!! that's is a year of endless labor there, yet it seems they did it in about a month (judging by Floki's wife and how she has healed.
I've hated the Floki character from day one, but for once I liked him? Didn't seem like a mental weirdo this episode. Enjoyed it.
King Ecbert. Oh how he's fun. I never liked that queen lady. She was a "Black Widow", killing everything in her path. A pure psychopath. Not that she didn't get worked over as a kid, but 2 wrongs don't make a right. The King's ambition and deal with the Devil will not end well.
Rollo. This one has to play out. I'm not sure where they are taking this story. One thing I do feel coming is another bad ending for Paris. After all, the show is called Vikings for a reason.
Hubbard... SIGH. Someone kill that guy off, please.
All in all, they opened up the story for a lot of bad endings for a lot of characters. This is going to get good!
