Vikings!

[theperfessor]

Is anybody beside me looking forward to the third season of Vikings on the History channel? I loved the first two seasons, thought it was a really well done show in all respects.

[Hannibal]

Watched the first season, got busy and missed the second. If I can figure out how to catch up, I'd watch a new season.

[FISH4BUGS]

If I had TV I would probably watch. Haven't had it for 25 years. I do like the History Channel, The Military Channel, and the Weather Channel. That's about it. When I travel, I don't need to go to bars for entertainment. I just channel surf. That's enough for me.

[FrankG]

Just finishing up watching them again on ROKU and getting primed for the next season .

[DeadWoodDan]

My wife and I are LOL. We both have gotten sucked into it. Even started watching some of previous seasons. they are running them non stop.

[Hamish]

I'm watching right now!

While their third season was better than the first two seasons...it was still pretty Lame

Already have our DVR set for the coming new series.

Keith, If you happen to have netflix look up a documentary called "Viking sword" it shows how some of their swords had superior metallurgy. It was very interesting. FB

I'm looking forward to seeing more dragon ships too! Firebricker I imagine you are speaking of the Ulfberht sword, one highly prized weapon of that era.

[quilbilly]

Excellent serious. We are also looking forward to it. There is a lot of real history mixed in including the some of the story of that English king. We especially like the scenery and photography.

[Bodean98]

For me it's the best series since The Sopranos! I have even read different versions of Ragnar's Saga, the story on which it is loosely based.
I am watching right now also. I love it!

[jaystuw]

I love the Vikings series and am very much looking forward to the start of the season! Jay

[Nazgul]

My ancestors came from an island in Sweden that was noted for Viking activity.

Love the series.

Vikings & Hell On Wheels are two of the best series out there.

For network TV the only one I really like is Blue Bloods on CBS.

Vikings is one of my wife's favorite shows. If given the oppurtunity I am sure she would run off with Ragnar.

[wlc]

Waiting on it impatiently myself. One of my favorite shows.

[Hannibal]

You can catch up at history.com

Yes, thank you. I should have been more specific. It's still the 'busy' problem. I'd likely have to stop casting and shooting, and THAT'S not gonna happenl LOL!

[MaryB]

Watch it when it isn't on at the same time as one of my other favorite shows.

[tward]

Gettin ready to watch tonight, interesting series Keith!

[bobthenailer]

justified??? I grew up in Harlan Co.,all my family still live there.Brother, believe me,that is not Harlan Co.,Kentucky.However he is a good actor.

Kentucky Justice on the other hand is real,and that is Harlan.I grew up with Marvin J's family.His dad was Chief of Police and was a friend of my dad.He is not the Sheriff anymore,didn't get re-elected.According to my brother,he arrested the wrong person.Marvin J was good people.
A quick story-One day my mother was giving him a pat on the back and telling him what a good job he was doing in cleaning uo the trash.After the conversation,and they parted ways,mom thought...hell he has one of my son's in jail.

[Taylor]

Sorry I got off track on my last post,waksupi's fault,I miss my mountains.Yes,I too am waiting on Vikings,good show.Did you see him in Baytown Outlaws?

[ballistim]

Just finishing up watching them again on ROKU and getting primed for the next season .

Yep, me too. I ran out of patience with the cable co. about 5 years ago, bought a Roku & never looked back. I keep getting letters in the mail to come back, don't think so.

[winelover]

Fastest one hour of TV-----really looking forward to it.

Vikings, Justified, Hell on Wheels, and Longmire are the ones I like to wait until available on my Roku then watch an entire season in a marathon session, not very good at spreading them out!

[Lloyd Smale]

we watch it every week.

Darned right I am, been watching the Athelstan's journal shorts. I'm behind by three but I have them recorded to watch.

My wife got me a netflix subscription for Christmas so I can continue to watch Longmire now that A&E canceled it and Netflix will be continuing it.

[John Allen]

I am fired up for the third season. I watched the last two seasons over the last month. It is a great show

Another great one. I did not realize Longmire is coming back

You're right there ! Ya cant just watch one episode and quit !

[perotter]

I watched the first season, but for some reason never watched the second season. I guess I have a little catching up to do.

[starmac]

I thought vikings was a ball team. lol The only show that has been mentioned I have seen, was Longmire and they didn't bring it back for some reason. I enjoyed it, but sure won't be getting netflix just to watch it.

[Taylor]

We have been keeping up with Vikings,Walking Dead,Game of Thrones.There is one other,but for the life of me,can't remember the name.If the wife was awake,she would know,but it is based in St Louis.

[1Shirt]

Waiting anxiously!

I enjoyed it, but sure won't be getting netflix just to watch it.I will miss Longmire as well. It had good ratings but, according to there Wall Street Journal, the people who liked it were too old and the channel wanted a different demographic.

Longmire was picked up by Netflix for another season.

Since there is such an interest in Vikings you might find the contents of a Viking Tool Box interesting. It is called the Mastermyr Find and much has been written about it.

Here is the story of the find:

Defiance!!! I remembered,only took 2 days

[mummer1973]

Yes I am looking forward to season three. I am right now as I type watching season two. I thought I was the only one watching it. Started watching it when SOA show ended. Now I must say I don't watch them till the show ends or three or four seasons has gone by.

[Ken in Iowa]

I'm a big Vikings fan. I am of Danish ancestry and find it fascinating to see what my ancestors were doing a thousand years ago.

[Dale in Louisiana]

I watched a couple of episodes. I thought it was like a soap opera with swordplay.
