Probably the funniest bit on the show for me was when Floki couldn't stop pouring more and more wine out in the chapel in Season 1 since every time he did it the parishioners would gasp. Just giggling away, with no idea that to them he was spilling the blood of Christ.

The traveler (who looks like he wants to tell you all about his time photographing hair metal bands back in the '80s) is not a good hype man ("wingman"). Shouldn't his introduction have included the fact that Rollo (excuse me, Rolfe, or Robert, if we're doing that) has been baptized? Maybe that doesn't sound as good…

I don't know if I belong on this committee as a heterosexual male but I'm going to have to stop you at Bjorn being better looking than Ragnar ..

That's exactly the enduring appeal of the show to me. The show's at its worst when it's a bland drama stuffed with court intrigue. (Are those scenes what The Tudors was like?) I kind of would rather the show had a rule where every scene has to have a "Northman" in it. There are some Athelstan and Ecbert scenes I'd…

I feel as though that interpretation is too generous to the show. Was it your impression the payoff tonight was supposed to make the viewer feel anything much more complicated than "Ragnar, you magnificent bastard, you've done it again?" I understand they can't repeatedly show the vikings doing viking things and keep…

I think the point was the show waters down viking violence against women by (since Season 1) having it occur off-screen while taking every chance to display Christian abuses. It's a bit of protagonist bias.

Dear Ragnar [Michael Hirst]: Were you not serious about wanting better farmland for your people / learning new methods of farming? Why, if the show is going to make Rollo that Rollo, the first Duke of Normandy, wasn't the land he handed your brother to fight you a condition of peace with the Franks? How would you raid…

Wetting your pants while drunk is known as a "Boston Stillsuit."

"We were a family. How'd it break up and come apart, so that now we're turned against each other? Each standing in the other's light. How'd we lose that good that was given us? Let it slip away. Scattered it, careless. What's keepin' us from reaching out, touching the glory?" — Charlotte McKinney narrating Terrence…

Each strand of hair lost was grabbed by an expelled Body Thetan on its way out.

There's a 90-minute documentary to be made about the hair pieces men like Travolta and Cage use in movies. Is it the actor's vanity? Does the studio insist? Who picks them out? How do they decide? Are they specially made? Who makes them? What's that process like? I'm far more interested in this than I am The Forger.

With this kind of ending you want to be detached and dull the effect of it by going off on free-flowing tangents like The Flophouse but you can't help ginning up some indignation like We Hate Movies and that's O.K. because you're still able to joke about it but after too much time considering the implications of the…

"Can Joe DiMaggio drop TWO atomic bombs on them, Mr. Kramer?"

Maybe there are deleted scenes where Wilkinson congratulates the kid on becoming the world's first OT VIII and reveals himself as LRH. Then after seeing the result he's duly horrified and decides "I must hide The Bridge behind a paywall so this NEVER happens again."

Like any movie couldn't be improved upon by adding more sex, violence and homosexuality ..

So, we can expect Tagawa to take the kid for a swim in the ocean at the end then gut him and leave him for the sharks? While harsh that does seem proportionate to his crime, so I don't know.

Pepper the Japanese with radiation because he misses playing hide and seek with his pop.

At least there's a theological basis for supporting a movie that insists Heaven/God is for real/not dead. I don't know of a biblical passage where Jesus offered a position on carpet bombing but I want to say if there is one he'd have been anti-.

Maybe his father is by some contrivance in Hiroshima at the time or Tagawa's family is from the area or there's some repercussion or intended moral that isn't "leveling a city full of people is a wondrous act of faith."

This does sound a lot like the prequels. Dead-eyed blonde kid with supernatural powers commits atrocities in a misguided attempt to save a loved one.
