TV show description:
Created and written by Michael Hirst (The Tudors), this TV series takes place in the brutal and mysterious world of Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel), a Viking warrior and farmer who yearns to explore (and raid) the distant shores across the ocean.
Ragnar’s ambition puts him at odds with local chieftain Earl Haraldson (Gabriel Byrne), who insists on sending his raiders to the impoverished east, rather than the uncharted west. When Ragnar teams up with his boat builder friend, Floki (Gustaf Skarsgard), to craft a new generation of intrepid ships capable of conquering the rough northern seas, the stage is set for conflict.
Aside from warfare and bloodshed, the series also tells the story of family and brotherhood; capturing the love and affection between Ragnar and his wife, Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick) — a respected warrior in her own right.
Other characters include Ragnar’s brother Rollo (Clive Standen), a fierce fighter who simmers with jealously; Earl Haraldson’s wife Siggy (Jessalyn Gilsig), a dutiful beauty who may be less than loyal; and monk Athelstan (George Blagden), whose Christian morals clash with the Vikings’ pagan society.
Episode #69 — The Last Act
The epic saga which began with Ragnar Lothbrok, the first Viking hero to emerge from the mists of myth and legend, comes to an end in a spectacular and shocking series finale that finds tragedy striking in the new land and in England.
First aired: December 30, 2021.
What do you think? Do you like the Vikings TV series? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a seventh season?
Don’t cancel Vikings! The quality of this series is amazing!
Season 6 … Welcome. Do not cancel. Sagas’s not ready jet. Even after season 5. Must be more story of Vikings. King Harald Finehair, Ubbe, Ivar, Sigurd and Björn. Come on. Vikings sails America before KK.
I Love it. Do not want it cancelled.
Vikings must be renewed. It’s the best series that my husband and I have watched.
I absolutely believe that the History Channel should RENEW the Vikings for as many seasons as possible. Excellent cast, historical and extremely well done.
Continue the series but need some changes. Ragnar must die, Now he is like a man with super powers
Please keep Vikings on the air. It’s the first show I’ve watched every episode since “Call to Glory” which was shown during the very early 80’s. The non-verbal communication and body language in some of the drama sets are unbelievable ah and when words are spoken it is how they are spoken that gives so so much to this great masterpiece.
Yes, as a Scandinavian I really enjoy watching the stories of my ancestors. Please continue the series.
I really enjoy this series. Looking forward to Season 6
Yes !!! keep it going my husband and I both enjoy this series!
PLEASE keep the show.. This is the only show that has ever captured my interest a major way and I would be beyond disappointed if it got canceled.
Keep this show going. I binged watched it and now caught to current. I would love to keep watching it, and dying to know what happens next.
Vikings is a great enjoyable show. This is part of history and represents how things were. Need more of these “reality” shows and not the other “fake people” ones. Please do not cancel. I won’t have much of anything else to enjoy 🙁
Keep it, but concentrate more on the contributions by Vikings other than just extreme violence. That gets old after a bit. We’d like to think our ancestors were more than monsters.
Please keep this show going. I have watched every episode at least twice. We love this show
