- DirectorJohan RenckStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenRagnar goes on a trip of initiation with his son. Meanwhile, he thinks he has finally found a way to sail ships to the west. However, his beliefs are seen as insane so he chooses to go against the law.A nice introduction with some characters. But in the reality it was quite boring. I don't know why I would need continue watching this "piece of art", but this is only the beginning.
7.6 - DirectorJohan RenckStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenThe stage is set for the first journey west by Ragnar Lothbrok as he gathers a crew willing to risk their lives to travel into the unknown.Why priest... why?
7.5 - DirectorJohan RenckStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenAfter his successful raid, Ragnar and his crew joyously return home with their riches. Earl Haraldson doesn't hesitate to summon Ragnar to the great hall where he lays claim to the entirety of the treasure. He allows the crew to take one thing from the hoard and Ragnar selects Brother Athelstan as his slave. From Athelstan, he learns the political structure in England and wants to learn some of the language. Haraldson sanctions a new raid but insists that one of his men, Knute, join Ragnar's crew. Ragnar takes his wife this time and surprises everyone by putting Athelstan in charge of the farm.That priest is a funny guy.
It was foretold that divine punishment would fall upon God's chosen people for all our grievous sins, and so it has happened. Athelstan
My lord, it was easy to take all of these things. The priests in their temple, they had no weapons. They were like babies. Ragnar Lothbrok
If any harm befalls my children, I will tear the lungs out of your body, priest. Lagertha
7.9 - DirectorCiaran DonnellyStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenThe Vikings head back to England to see what other treasures this new world has to offer. This go round Ragnar and his crew sail out with Earl Haraldson's permission.Awesome...
Episodes conclusion: "fu*king viking king" or whatever he is called...
8.0 - DirectorCiaran DonnellyStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenIn the Great Hall of Kattegat, a seer reads Earl Haraldson's future and tells him that Ragnar Lothbrok searches for his death.Heh, that Swedish man... creepy...
The killers, they dug a shallow grave. And before they buried them... they cut their heads off. And when they laid them in the ground, they... they put their faces against their asses... as a sign of disrespect. If I ever find the man who did that... I will... I took these locks of hair from their heads. See Siggy... when you have such knowledge... being married to a rich, old man isn't so bad. Earl Haraldson
The earth was made from the Ymir's flesh and oceans from his blood, when the Titan was thawed from the ice. The gods, they made hills out of his bones, and trees from his hairs, and the sky dome is his skull. And out of his brain they shaped the welling dark clouds. Helga
8.1 - DirectorCiaran DonnellyStarsTravis FimmelClive StandenKatheryn WinnickRagnar, weak and still hurt, must meet the Earl head-on after it comes to light that Rollo has been tortured on Haraldson's orders.Oh yeah. 1vs1. And the first scene where I liked that Svein guy... You will know which one when you see it.
8.2 - DirectorKen GirottiStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenThree Viking ships sail upriver towards the very heart of power in eastern England: the Royal Villa of King Aelle.Girl or boy... or? And this was most interesting episode of this season so far.
Contend, o lord, against those who contend with me. Fight against those who fight against me! Draw the spear and javelin against my pursuers. Say to my soul - “I am your salvation.” King Aelle
How many christians did I kill, Floki? How many? Do you think Odin is still angry with me now? Rollo
8.6 - DirectorKen GirottiStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenThe traditional pilgrimage to Uppsala to thank the gods brings a torrent of emotions for Ragnar, Lagertha, and Athelstan.Sacrifice. Epic.
7.8 - DirectorKen GirottiStarsTravis FimmelKatheryn WinnickClive StandenAt the behest of King Horik, Ragnar assembles a small party to travel to Gotaland (modern day Sweden) to resolve a land dispute with the area's leader, Jarl Borg.Too much predictable. More sons? Ehh not interesting at all... but that is end of the season. Just watch.
