    Just watched episode 3 tonight, season is starting off good but expected better battles than we have seen so far. Heahmund is supposed to be a great warrior which should have set up good between him and Ivar but it seems the Saxons and Heahmund can't match Ivar's tactics.

    I'm guessing Floki is in Iceland with the black volcanic sand beach. I like Floki as a character but don't see that part of the show holding interest. Floki will obviously go get some people to try and settle there but it seems it would take a few seasons for it to get beyond that. I can see him sailing more to other parts of Iceland but since he was the first settler, while good to watch from a history standpoint, not quite as good from a "Vikings" view.

    Well 3 episodes left this season and then next season will be the last. Saw it coming after Ragnar was tossed into the snake pit, just hasn't been the same.

    Talk of a spin off coming out though. Wondering if it could be about Rollo, his sons and The Norman Conquest.

    They jumped the shark in France.

    This show is virtually unwatchable at this point. When the strongest story arc in a show about Vikings revolves around British royalty, you're in trouble.

    I’m on season 4 as they try to invade Paris again and that’s exactly what I said. Even my wife, who is the one who wanted to watch this show and doesn’t tend to be very critical of things she’s interested in, has just shaken her head at it.
