Much prefer Vikings to this - but still think this is good. Looking forward to series 2.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

I wasn't too fond of Vikings and much preferred this, largely due to it having more of an 'adventure' feel. I also think the characters in this are more likeable, and I think

Spoiler

Ubba is a fantastic villain

. Either way, if you like one you'll at the very least get some enjoyment from the other.

New trailer, just saw it on tv.

I hope they do some sort of recap, as I've forgotten a few of the finer plot details.

 

[H.Cornerstone]

I like the books a lot due to their historical accuracy (something Vikings went far away from).

Nice! Thanks for posting. Hopefully Netflix makes an announcement about the US broadcast soon.

Same. I haven't finished them all yet, think I was on 5 or 6 in when I stopped.

It seems like we're not getting it anytime soon in the US on Netflix, so feel free to make a new thread for the UK broadcast of S2 which starts tonight. Enjoy!

Tonight? No fair!

The first season was mediocre. It did intrigue me enough to pick up the books though which turned out to be awesome.

The books are far better than the TV series, in my opinion. I understand that the show adaptation have its constraints, but Cornwell's works could've been represented better with HBO production values.

Bernard Cornwell's books are incredibly formulaic but still fun. I've read every series he puts out because they are interesting and pulpy historical fiction. Check out the Sharpe series if you liked the Saxon Stories.

It starts tonight in the UK?!

 

[Cornballer]

I know, right!

I'm surprised there's still no broadcast info whatsoever for the US.

 

[SirKhalid]

Seems like Canada will have the episodes on Netflix weekly, which is pretty nice. But episode 1 is not up yet.

 

[KahooTs]

Will read impressions before deciding if I'll bother watching this one. In hindsight the first season was not worth it.

Uh no, this isn't what I thought it was and I'm confused.

Thanks!

We'll keep this thread open for US discussion regarding the release date and whatnot.

 

[Cornballer]

It looks like S2 should be up on US Netflix on May 5th.

LTTP on this, but this show is good. How come no one swears in this show? Decapitations, sex and tits are ok, but saying "shit" is not?

 

[frontovik]

Don't the Saxons say arseling a few times? That's as close to swearing that you're going to get.
