Vikings: Valhalla

... to "the last kingdom", which is my standard for these types of shows. No idea about historical accuracy, but simply found myself getting bored with it after 3 episodes. I'm sure a lot of work went into it, but just not for me.

Being a huge fan of the original Vikings I was really looking forward to Vikings: Valhalla. Now, even though it's not as quite as good as the original it's still a really good show that absolutely holds up as it's own great series (as long as you don't compare it to the original). It takes place 100 years after the original show and makes references to all the great characters from that show like Ragnar, Bjorn, Lagertha, Rollo, Ivar, etc. It also mainly takes place in Kattegat, which was home to all those great characters. The new heroes in this show (Leif, Harold, Freydis, etc) are all really easy to root for and do a incredible job pulling you into the show. After finishing season 3 (the last season) I can say I've been thoroughly entertained throughout the entire series and I'm so glad they were able to give it a proper ending instead of of a cliffhanger.

Season 3 is the best by far,normally the series tense to take the downfall but not vikings valhalla,every episode was better than the other.

I have enjoyed the drama,conspiracy,compat fight,the love with the characters and the eagerness that everyone has for POWER When it comes being a king there are no feelings, brothers against brothers and families falling apart in a day just foe the characters to please their ambitions and dreama.

WHICH I didn't enjoy that much are few details, like black in Norway, I mean I understand the inclusiveness etc but come on we talking about Norway,try to make it realistic I know that the story is made up but I don't care is not a documentary.

I love this genre; I watch all series and movies set in past eras. Some are spectacular, while others are lamentable. This case has some lamentable aspects and others that are excellent: The production, acting, costumes, and setting maintain the excellence of Vikings.

A black countess in Norway is absurd; there's no need for forced inclusion.

The plot jumps very long distances and sometimes seems illogical.

Among the characters, I think some are very well-developed and interesting, like Canute or Leif, while others, like Freydis and Harald, never quite convince.

I have to say that it is far from the level of *Vikings*, but it is still a good series.

When I first heard about Vikings: Valhalla I couldn't wait to see it. I knew it was going to be hard to live up to the original but this not not only met my expectations but surpassed them in every way. Of course it wasn't as good as the original, I wasn't expecting it to but it's still a very good show that can stand on its own. I actually liked it so much that I binged the first two seasons again before watching this last and final season. I just did the same thing with Season 3...I binged it as fast as possible. Even though most of the reviews are positive there are some that didn't like it as much as others and I'm really not sure why. If you liked the original then there's no reason why you shouldn't like this one too. I hope they do another spin-off because the more Vikings the better.
