Is this where we discuss Vikings?

I have three episodes of Vikings on my TiVo that I haven't watched yet. How's it looking? I have a fascination with the historical group, and a tattoo of a Viking longship on one thigh, but I haven't heard whether the show's any good or not.

So far I've only watched one episode. The leads are attractive, under the grime. The dialogue isn't insulting, and the sets are interesting (and dark). I'm not sold on the idea that the Norsemen of the 7th Century didn't know anything about the British Isles. And I'm skeptical about them needing only a compass to find their way.
Also, Gabriel Byrne is pretty two-dimensionally villainous as the Earl (which should be "Jarl", but whatever). He's playing him too suave and sophisticated for my tastes.
I'll watch some more. Thankfully, the battle scenes aren't nearly as grisly as they could be.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I've been meaning to watch it too - I love Viking stuff.

I didn't know Gabriel Byrne was involved. Tomorrow's supposed to be rainy and cold--I see a three episode Viking-fest in my future.

I'm enjoying the Vikings so far. I love the female lead.

I was kind of curious that no one seemed to have said anything about it yet. I haven't actually seen this week's ep yet, though, so I'd better stay out of the thread for a bit...
