I like this show


It has an interesting take on mythology and religion. Interesting that Norse mythology takes center stage. I'm a massive fan of Norse mythology, so I am kind of sad it butchers it in a lot of ways.

However, since this is a tv show, I can forgive the deviation from the source material. It has some fascinating ideas and concepts.

But this is a niche show and it's heavy, and thus it will only have a small audience, and thus it has failed to gain wide support.

But I still enjoyed it. Season 3 had some really good moments. Laura Moon's potty mouth was a a massive turn-off.

The writing was pure shit. Literally nothing happened in the second season, so I eschewed the third. It didn’t sink under its own heaviness. It drowned in its own froth.

I share your passion for Norse mythology. I knew Wednesday was Wotan soon as I heard his name; but someone is better off watching Vikings than s/he is by watching this lunatic-agenda-pushing newthink.
