Vikings on History Channel

I've caught up on them as of last night... through the 4th episode anyways (I think I can watch it early with TWC?)

Overall it is pretty good.

The acting is okay. The script is alright.

I don't really like how they all speak English... I guess they didn't want to use so many subtitles...

I don't really get the "seer" dude and why he looks like some other kind of creature other than a human...

The way I see it, though, it is probably 95% more historically accurate than The Bible.. ;)

Pretty good. They were hyping it up to have the same type of gore and stuff as Game of Thrones but I haven't seen that yet, maybe torward the end of the season.

I had low expectations so I've been satisfied. There is a lot WORSE things on TV than that.

Yeah you can tell it is wanting to ride GoT's success... but the actors in Vikings aren't anywhere near the level of those in GoT...

But like you said, it is satisfying TV if nothing else.

Yeah I was just wondering, I didnt know anything about it but I caught a couple of the episodes and liked it overall. I like the storyline so far and the acting is decent, I dont watch too many series shows normally just stick to sports outside of TWD and Bar Rescue.

I am going to start Game of Thrones soon but I'm trying to read all the books first

Don't worry about reading the books first IMO. I watched season 1 first, and if anything, it helped me visualize the characters more.

Does the show follow the books closely or just the main idea like the walking dead?

IMO the show has followed the books very closely. There is always going to be some differences when you put a story onto tv/movie but GoT is one the best I've seen at keeping it close.

I still dig it. The last episode was pretty crazy and not much happened minus some alliances type stuff. There is better TV, but there is a LOT worse also. I like the lead character though. Crazy that Floki is Eric from True Blood's brother, and also one of the main guys on Hemlock Grove is their brother too.

    • As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
