Vikings will pillage and plunder for at least another season. Deadline reports the History TV show has been renewed for a fifth season.
It’s also been announced Jonathan Rhys Meyers will join the season five cast.
The renewal is a little bit surprising. Though History added four more episodes to season four of the historical drama, the current season has not performed well in the ratings. Only four episodes in, season four is averaging just around 2.1 million viewers per episode. For comparison, season three averaged around 2.45 million.
Despite the middling ratings, History has ordered 20 episodes for the fifth season, which is set to premiere in 2017.
What do you think? Do you watch Vikings? Are you enjoying season four so far?

I’m very happy that History has decided to renew Vikings for another season.
Got turned on to the series just a couple of months ago but I’ve been enjoying very much and can’t wait for the new shows.
I love “Vikings”. Sad that Ragnar has been cut out of the show. I watched for him but still a big fan. Please don’t cancel it.
Love it…especially new cast member Rhys meyers…keep them coming
Yes, love it! Keep it coming! When will Season 5 start?
Still in disbelief thag Ragnas is gone. Please bring him back. Only watched the show to see him.
Can’t wait for the season to begin. Love watching Vikings.
Can’t wait for season 5 to start.
Loss of Ragnar was huge! Extreme depravity and evil undertones stayed in my mind the next day. Will no longer watch.
Ragnar is gone. Cancel the series. Jill

I love the show but typically watch it after it has aired, on Amazon.
Do not cancel this show. Enjoyable and informative.
Great Show…the should live on!
