Ron Moore (show runner for Battlestar Galactica and Outlander on STARZ) just gave Vikings a nice shout-out at PaleyFest where he was doing a panel discussion about Outlander.  He was asked what other show he'd like to work on for a day and he picked Vikings because of the unique culture it presents -- one that is so completely different from modern day.  The audience roared its approval.

Lagertha & Starbuck .. I want to see them on The Amazing Race asap!

Wasn't sure where to put this but Kathryn Winnick is guest starring right now on Person of Interest and like usual, she's awesome in it!  Person of Interest stars Jim Caviezel and man, Floki would be PISSED if he knew Lagertha was hanging around the Christ God. ;)

There use to be a forum for this show on another site with this thread.  But It went out of business! So, I am going to start it again!

 

There a bunch of Deleted Scenes, Extended Scenes & Parts Not Show On USA TV of the Viking TV show floating around out there, that does not get show on American TV!  Very interesting stuff, here a place to put it all!  Also, there a of parts like this on tumblr for anyone who would like to root around on there and than post it on here!

 

Here a couple links to start:

I found it deeply offensive. Random beating of naked women doesn't amuse me.

I'm hesitant to post this, but I don't think @LEVE was meaning to show that "random beating of naked women" was amusing, but is riffing on the popularity of the "50 Shades of Grey" books and movie. This is more of a parody as well as a satire on the books pointing out the humor in human quirks and especially human sexuality. It's well done, IMO.

 

There are far more offensive depictions of the various aspects of sexuality on the show with rapes aplenty which are certainly not humorous. This bit with some admittedly kinky aspects of consensual sex is, IMO, not especially offensive, but, given my sense of humor, pretty entertaining. (The age of Odo and his bad wig are the piece de resistance, I must admit)

I thought it could have been much worse.  When that poor woman was following Odo into that cave I covered my eyes because I thought he had something really sinister in mind--involving spikes and chains.  *shudder*  She was very brave (actually, stupid is what I'd call her) for following him because you could see the wariness in her eyes. 

 

Odo is no fool though.  No way he'd proposition Lagertha.  Even if he had a death wish, I think he'd rather just stab himself to death than to deal with her.

Hey, Vikings fans, BBC America has adapted Bernard Cornwell's Saxon books into a series that will air this year. (I guess no date is set yet.) It's a great series of books in which Ragnar's sons and Alfred play a big part. I can't tell you how excited I was to here this.

Here's some of the info: http://www.bbcamerica.com/orphan-black/2015/04/17/the-last-kingdom-teaser-to-air-during-orphan-black/

Happy dance!

New regulars:

 

Finnish actors Peter Franzen (The Gunman) and Jasper Paakkonen (Frozen Land, Secret Lives) as well as Dianne Doan (Once Upon a Time) have joined the drama series created by Michael Hirst, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Franzen will play King Harald Finehair, a Scandinavian warrior and potential threat to Ragnar (Travis Fimmel). Paakkonen is set to play Halfdan the Black, Finehair's younger brother. Doan will portray Yidu, a new and unique Chinese character who will have a big role in season four.

The actor who played Athelstan is playing Louis the XIV in the series "Versailles." It's kind of odd to see him as the Sun King.

Has this series made it to the States.  I want to see it and I have been searching....but no luck.

 

I just read at ROTTEN TOMATOES that VIKINGS will have 20 episodes this Season.
