    Vikings (History Channel series)

    http://www.history.com/shows/vikings

    Didn't see any thread on the first 6 pages for this (through searching for vikings or history channel)

    You can watch the 1st 2 episodes on the site, which is nice because I didn't even know there was a 2nd one, I thought there was only one on last night.

    Anyways it's a pretty good show so far from what I can see. It definitely fills that Game of Thrones void for me right now, I wish it had come out sooner though since Game of Thrones is starting back up again soon. Also main characters name brought this to mind immediately:

    Wanted to watch after the Walking Dead, but forgot too, is it a fictional series? Or is it a discovery channel / History channel kind of thing that spews facts and has no drama and a real event that took place

    what he means to ask is, is it realistic?

    Looks like a pretty good show. but I wouldn't expect much in the way of facts in a show on the history channel ironically.

    I honestly thought the show was loosely about Lief Erikson, with all the talk of going west and such. So not sure yet what it's really about.

    I'm not entirely sure where it is going either but I liked the first episode. The second episode is on their website already but I haven't watched it yet.

    It's a series about Ragnar Lodbrok, a legendary Viking hero.

    Pretty awesome so far.

    Surprised at how good this show is - after watching shows like walking dead which drag on plot lines forever the quick pace of the show is very refreshing (i.e. stuff happens every episode).

    You can watch all 5 episodes online here - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2306299/...f_=tt_pv_vi_sm

    ^ I love that they host all the episodes. Hell history channel had the next weeks episode on early a few weeks ago. Show is awesome, I need to catch up since i'm still on Ep 3.

    Great show. I love that the Anglo-Saxons speak Old English...

    What are the chances we see another season or a similar show in a different time period?

    I caught the first episode and thought it was fairly entertaining.

    Love this show, especially now that TWD is on break. Easy to catch up too since the History Channel has all the shows on their site for free stream
