Sorry for the spoilers!!! I would recommend watching it though! It is more fighting and less drama then Game of Thrones. I think GoT has a better budget and is all around a more intriguing story. Vikings is neat because it is very loosely based on some historical figures and I've always like Norse mythology. Vikings also has Katheryn Winnick as Lagertha, who is a baddass, and one of my favorite characters. I'm sorry this thread is now completely off topic! Please move it to the appropriate place if needed! For everyone else reading please be prepared for any spoilers below! p.s. Why didn't they make Jonathan Rhys Meyers grow his hair out?!? And why did they need him in the show???
