I was only half watching it since I was playing a game, but I liked it. Not super amazing, but definitely going to be left on the pvr

One thing that always gets to me is how, no matter what period or where they are, they will always use people with English accents to portray the characters.

(please, excuse the nerdy response)
Logically though. Olde English, German, Scandinavia dialects are entirely unrecognizable to contemporary layperson audiences, whether written or spoken. Accuracy therefore not possible, British English is as suitable a substitution as any of the viable alternatives. The first minute of "The History of English" illustrates the reasoning nicely...
Unrelated to the show, but thanks for the explanation. After listening in on the second video, I definitely could tell it's not German (at least not the most common dialect we hear), but if you didn't tell me it was olde English I would've guessed a Scandanavian language. Time for me to read up some more!

It's getting better, I'll keep watching for this season.
Anyone else think that Ragnar could pass for Jax from Sons of Anarchy's Viking brother?

I find this show has been picking up every episode. I went from on the fence to waiting for the next episode.

Caught up with this show this weekend, it's much better than I expected it to be! It's a good show I can watch while doing something else and still enjoy it.
The last episode is great, I like how they are stating to show how ruthless the Vikings are but not really to help the story line. It was so kinda akward watching them eat at the kings table and the looks on the faces when in history everyone ate that way lol
