What do you think? Will you watch the new series when it arrives on Netflix? Are you a fan of the original Vikings?
I will definitely be watching.
Can not wait!!! Sometimes it just takes way to long from announcements to actual show time. The ANXIETY it creates just waiting for the release kills me.
Absolutely excited . Season six left questions such as the group leaving Iceland and also Ivar’s fate
Most definitely be watching
Most definitely I will watch. LOVE this show so much. I was sad when they said it was ending. So excited fir more great stories & characters. Can’t wait
Why not carry on the vikings, the new show could have carried on where the old left off. I will still watch out for the new show though, when will it be out?
I dont understand why the new show has to start 100 years in the future,sort of no different than just canceling my favorite series
I just found this series and have fallen in love with all the characters would be very happy to have it continue.
I truly enjoyed the Vikings and hate to see it end. I was hoping the 3 brothers left would meet again. It looked to me like Bjorne’s wife survived as she dove into water, we know the brother and his tough wife in Iceland survived… was hoping those 3 would take off against the Rus and other 2 brothers! Anyway, yes I will watch Valhalla!!
I will definitely be waiting for this!
Yes! Will watch and look forward to the sequel as I loved the Viking series
I have enjoyed the Seasons of Vikings with much anticipation waiting for the outcome. I hopeful that it continues.
Yes-can’t wait!
