He didn't defeat them. He ran a guerilla war in which still the Vikings had most of England, just not Wessex and after a few unfortunate battles for viking generals, they agreed on a peace so long as each settled on their land, with Christian conversions by one of them.

He abandoned Lagertha for new pussy, then betrayed Lagertha by not supporting her when she was usurped, and then he alienated Aslaug by dropping her at home and finding himself some new pussy, one of which included Yidu.

Could have sworn Finehair was from Norway, not Finland?

Seemed obviously French to me.

I don't say start sugarcoating. I'm talking from an emotional perspective, fuck that show. Even the actress in interviews was devastated because just now she was starting to get some backstory on Nina, from her childhood and husband to the person she had evolved to be. And all that crumbled.

Well, fuck this show. Logical or not, they killed Nina in such a horrible way.

I'm just gonna miss Dawson's character since she's been carted off to a far inferior show (Jessica Jones is so painfully bad, and that's terrible considering the cast is amazing).

Elektra is the worst aspect of this storyline by the end of the season, and her trainwreck of an arc completely derails The Punisher's storyline and leaves a fairly unresolved, scrambling season 2.

When did Aslaug get ruined so horribly as a character? She got turned into such a flat, one-dimensional creature.

I love Harbard. I love Kevin Durand in this show, perfect personification of a trickster god.

Maybe Paige is not smart enough to be that calculating, but I felt like Paige angled to make that confession as insurance for Pastor Tim.

Jesse was such a farce this episode. Great example of convenient dramatic schizophrenia to drive a character into another show.

I'm not sure I understand the Lagertha plot. Ever since she had become earl, she was despised over there, which made it easy for Kalf to usurp her.

Always refer to him as The Vapors.

She's basically followed by people who enjoy watching her be an asshole to people.

They are supposed to be people you dislike. Stuffy, pretentious white liberals who drank the deconstructionist Kool Aid in their undegraduate years and just parrot the dogma to fellow white liberals as social posturing to earn progressive points to climb up the ladder of progressive sainthood by being the most…

That's an issue with circumstancial evidence being given the same weight in court as direct evidence.

When Bjorn comes to offer you the option of going with him, or that scrawny little dipshit. Such a difficult decision….

The empirical truth is ALL that matters in a justice system that deals in real punitive measures. As well as the social sphere in which a school's reputation and funding and the students within all pay for the outcome of a media circus over a claim that SHOULD be investigated and acted upon.

Really, an A-?
