Pirates be unpredictable buggers.

I really want to eat some celery and bacon right now.

You know nothing, Bash Snow.

It is neither good nor bad, but True

And it's amazing that Abbi and Ilana created this show when they're barely old enuf to rent a car. Jealous.

As far as I'm concerned every episode needs a Peter Gabriel song, and someone shouting "Ronald Reagan doesn't care."

Yes, exactly. By the 80s most big budget movies were being made for teenage boys. That's the reason for lack of strong women, more than anything. I would argue though, that most comedians are unthreatening. Seth Rogen, Will Farrell anybody? It's only in drama that we see men who must remain manly men.

It doesn't have to be Jesus that he found. "We are all of us in the gutter, some of us are looking at the stars." Maybe it was just Oscar Wilde.

This makes it sound like Will Smith in The Wild Wild West. Which was only unintentionally scary.

Maybe for that hero McConaughey from ten years in the future.

One can only hope.

For a show that sold itself as having an equal ratio of male to female nudity, this episode finally balanced things out a little. So, yay. In order for things to be truly equal though, that would mean next week will be wall to wall penises. Looking forward to it.

Yup, she was just trying to motivate him, in a Siggy kind of way.

The point of a hot fire-knife, amirite?

Siggy reminds us that behind every great man there's a great woman ready to plunge a hot knife between his ribs.

But this show has made the point again and again that Viking society was better for women - like the shieldmaidens we saw side by side with the men in battle in this episode. Besides, Ragnar is too awesome to have to stoop to bitchslap anyone.

I love his hair and hate Bash's short Bieber bowl cut. There. I said it.

I thought so too, but now I'm wondering if Bradley is indeed the murderer. And that she won't mind in the slightest if the police blame Norman. Resulting in another betrayal coming from a sexy woman to slip into the psyche of young Master Bates.

Hey she's a Shieldmaiden. A Shieldmaiden! She's not gonna share with no super-model, suspiciously-pregnant, maybe-daughter-of-fictional-parents.
Plus, I just want to say that now I've got another few weeks of having the haunting Viking song on a continuous loop in my mind…

Froggy from the original Little Rascals/Our Gang comedies? He is kinda scary, but not as much as Mason Reece.
