A Chinese character sounds interesting. However I don't know if I am going to watch past the 1st episode of S4. Ragnar is an awful king. Has it occurred to anyone else that as King he has not left Katagat? Does the rest of his country know and accept him as King? Did they share the new plough technology that they learnt whilst in England? So many unanswered questions for me and the sheildmaiden thing is no longer interesting.
ReplyDeleteDeadly 3rd season. It was everything but that :b
ReplyDeleteInteresting, but I would rather see how Ragnar's sons will look after time jump.
ReplyDeleteIts a show for cryn out loud, u don't need to pick it apart! I love the show, and can't wait for season 4.
ReplyDeleteHow is that?
ReplyDeleteI loved the show up to season 2 but season 3 was really, really bad. So bad that the only reason I will tune in for season 4 is Lagertha, and I fear they will destroy her character even more.
