I've watched the first two episodes.

It's some sort of Scandinavian (or something) show about Vikings, back in the day... the Leif Erikson era. It's a show about Viking life. With Curb Your Enthusiasm--style awkward humor.

So far, it's worth watching. I'm getting a chuckle here and there, in the middle of badass vikings being badass vikings.

Yes, boobs were spotted in ep 2.

Also the hot chick Viking had a necklace of weiners that she took from all the men she raped.

I don't know if you know this, but those are not boobs.

Good observation.

I thought of her because of the scene before it... when her fellow raiders are describing what she does when she rapes... it is hard to explain. Just funny.

Not that rape can ever be funny, of course. It's just terrible.

FInished both, short seasons.

Worth watching, the out-of-place humor is worth it, mixed in with viking baddassery.

COnsider the following joke-spoilers, trying to describe what kind of show this is.










In one scene, the viking men all seem to fail to get erections when trying to rape a particular woman, because she's so unpleasant and off-putting.

In another, they anachronistically say, "This is the year 791. The technology for which you're asking won't exist for centuries."

And, in a peasant revolt, the vikings get outnumbered, but are super-competent fighters, and mop up the superior odds, in spectacularly violent fashion, in about 20 seconds. One of the vikings asks, "Were we just attacked?" Laugh-out-loud kind of stuff.
