Norsemen

This is essentially Vikings with laughs. Very well done and markedly funny. Entertaining and also very timely, what with the recent finale of Game of Thrones. This helps to fill the medieval gap but with a new twist, so this isn't just another poor copy as we've seen start to crop up. Bravo to Norway for producing this great hit, and extra kudos to the cast and crew for filming each scene twice (and most likely many times more) in both Norwegian and English. Hopefully word spreads on this hidden gem and Netflix picks this up for the 2nd season (already filmed).

I have to be honest, I never heard of Norsemen while it was on. This last season just ended and I just recently heard about it and that's because of the incredible word of mouth surrounding this show. Most of the reviews here all say the same thing...this show is funny. And they're right. It's gotten great reviews from both the audience and critics, it has a 90% of Rotten Tomatoes right now. The first two seasons were incredibly funny, the third is still funny, just not as good as the first two. It obviously is a show making fun of shows like Vikings but it's more than that, it's a good show in its own right. How they made Vikings funny is beyond me but they did it.

I had an amazing time watching this series. It's gory, gritty and surprisingly full of great humor.

The characters are well developed, from the great Chieftains right down to the slaves.

It's just a shame we only got 3 seasons. Hopefully another platform picks up this option, because it deserves more screen time.

I heard such great things about Norsemen for awhile now but still put off watching it for some reason. I'm so glad that I finally gave it a chance because it's hilarious! It's a Viking comedy that's equally funny and violent. It's a sendup of Game of Thrones. It just has such a tongue in cheek, nonchalant approach to everything they do and where the entire cast gets a chance to shine. It will have you laughing throughout the entire series. Each season is as funny as the others. The writers of this show are genius. I've never seen Monty Python but I've seen this get compared to that a lot. At least as far as the humor goes. Don't be like me and go watch this incredibly funny show immediately!

I always enjoy a good Viking serie / movie. But I really like this one. Great characters and lots of great humor. In Dutch we call it "lekker droog". I am looking forward to more episodes because I already watched them all that are avaible on Netflix!
