Vikings!!! (2x03 through 3x04)

Mar 19, 2015 21:59

I never got around to posting my thoughts on the rest of Vikings season 2, and here we are already halfway through season 3! Since this is the show I am feeling the most fannish about by far (and since I fear what will happen in tonight's episode), I wanted to catch up now:

Vikings 2x03-2x10:

( In the gentle fall of rain from Heaven I hear my God. But in the thunder I still hear Thor. That is my agony. )

I haven't watched any of season 3 yet but I have acquired the episodes. I should really make some time to catch up so we can talk about it.

Omg yes, you should catch up! I'd be interested to hear your thoughts, there are some big twists...there are definitely some things I have found disappointing about this season (I don't think it is as good as season 2, and Athelstan's storyline especially isn't as good as the last two seasons), but nothing so bad and ruinous as say, what Reign has been doing this year. *sigh* There have been some great moments this season too...I've really enjoyed seeing more of King Ecbert and Princess Kwenthrith.

P.S. I did end up watching The 100 and while IA the plot got way more interesting I still hate all of the characters except for Raven and maybe Monty...:/ Really overrated, IMO.

I haven't watched Vikings yet so I can't comment on it, but I always keep thinking that Fandom March Madness sounds fun when I read your posts about it and then always forget to participate. :|

I would have mentioned it to you to ask for votes, as usual, but this FMM was happening at the same time as the turtle stuff for you, so I didn't think you would be in the mood, all things considered. *hug*

And you should totally check out Vikings! It's by the guy who wrote the Tudors (although without Showtime's ability to show naked women), and has awesome female characters, great period production values (in a very different time period than you usually see), and great religious dramaz. You get to see both Viking culture and Dark Ages Saxon England (where people think giants made Greek/Roman statues because Ignorance).

Oh, it would have been fine, since some distractions would have been welcome. But thank you, that was really considerate and nice of you. *hugs*

That sounds really exciting, even know I know very little about Vikings and Dark Ages Saxon England, it might be interesting since you're right that it's not the time period you usually see. I'm watching Agent Carter right now but I think I'll watch Vikings next! :D
