Explain a little more. It's on my watch list, but, I have not started it. Should I skip it?

I find it really funny. It’s definitely NOT another Vikings like TV show. It’s comedy with a bit of blood. Vikings meets Shaun of the Dead?

Ugh. I was hoping for Vikings. I may skip this one.

I finished The Bodyguard last night. Not at all what I expected, but, I still enjoyed it. So, I need a new series.

I've watched both seasons. Great show. Funny as hell. It's a 9th century viking sitcom.

The bodyguard was decent. But yes if you want something more on the serious side with some ass kicking, then that’s not the right show.

Absolutely love it. The juxtaposition of the Viking dress and costumes with modern day cliches and speech is pretty funny and unique (like in the first episode when the chieftain hits the slave and then says that a fear-based leadership style doesn't suit him).

Love the show. if you look up the stats, the viewership figures in Norway are staggering. It would be like if 200 million people in the US watched Big Bang Theory

It's kind of like Vikings meets The Office. Its very funny.

I decided to give it a shot. Watched the first two episodes last night. I agree. Very entertaining. I’m in.

And the Norwegian accent (sorry, Halvard) makes it even funnier. I just love the casual delivery of lines that are sometimes cruel, or violent. Like the exchange between the slave who is about to be beheaded, and the woman holding the axe, or Arvid's holmgang is pretty funny. But there are so many lines that are so funny.

They say the first thing to go when you lose your hands is your fine motor skills, or the tree of exclusion can bear some bitter fruits.

Nine out of ten concerns are unfounded. So they say.

I watched this based on the recommendations here and got really hooked, really quickly! At 30 min an episode and only 6 episodes/season, I went through both seasons really quickly. Now I am on serious withdrawal! This is a ridiculous and ridiculously addictive series!

Um ... excuse me, but, what hell happened??? Seasons 1 and 2 were beyond epic. Season 3 kinda sucks!

What happened???

I haven’t started yet. I don’t like hearing that.

I know it has been out for awhile, but the Man in the High Castle is really good. My wife and I just finished up the fourth and final season. I'm not too happy with the ending, but it was a good ride.

You're high. Watching the maturation of Jarl Varg was great, everybody is saying it.

And who doesn't like a good public scrotum caning? That scene had me laughing out loud just as much as seeing the beans above the frank in Something about Mary.

You still talking about the Norsemen, or are you having Walking Dead flashbacks?

Stateless, a true story about this Aussie woman who is bipolar and checks herself into a border/refugee detention centre in northern Australia.

Covers a lot of perspectives, her, her family who are looking for her, various illegal immigrants, detention guards and the politics of their superiors.

Stranger than fiction...

Based on this thread and also that netflix is highlighting the show I decided to give the first couple episodes a try. I like it. Pretty funny. There are a couple scenes though, where I gringe and can't look at the TV. For example, the Slave asks for his cape back. Fucking disgusting but damn funny.
