Do Scandinavians watch Vikings /int/?
>>57273172
hope not
>>57273172
no, its a shitty show.
>>57273172
Harald and Halfdan are Finns so I have to watch. It's the law.
Best waifu on the show tbhfam
>>57273308
They aren't savage and barbaric enough to be liked by a Scandinavian community
>>57273172
Why would anyone watch that crap? Seasons 1-2 were sorta okayish and even then they were a huge historical mess.
>>57273328
Shes a cancer whore who needs to die
>>57273328
Literal manface
Yeah I still watch it, even though I don't really like any of the characters anymore. I'm enjoying the English plot more than the vikings desu. Just waiting for Ragnar to die already, I dont know if that happens this season or next.
>>57273328
Ayyslaug
I have, the first two seasons,
But i am also an Archaeologist, so I...
It is not really... well, I see many faults, wrong chronology on houses, items, Typology on works, that didn't exist yet and so on.
It is fairly intertaining, but one must show criticism upon watching it.
Best character
>>57273328
>Liking this troll looking whore
>Not Lagertha
stopped watching after Rollo and his brother are in good terms again. I wonder how many did I miss
yes, but I view it as a work of fiction
>>57273500
Still better than literally Everything else I've seen about vikings that wasnt a documentary, it's Always been capeshit and stuff like that. At least they're trying even if the order of people and events are off as you say. It feels slightly less like I'm wasting time watching this than say, GoT.
>>57273172
Probably
This fanfiction helps them to cope with their shameful real history
>>57273172
no
i wish they instead did a show about 1500-1700 Sweden
>>57273512
Just one of the many historical characters they shat on
Rollo
>in reality: A charismatic warlord who despite losing most of his battles in Francia was still impressive enough to make them want to use him to protect French coast in exchange of a swamp
>in the show: Some vicious treacherous faggot who's so jealous of his brother (despite owing him everything) that he literally massacred all his men in a heartbeat (while real one settled Normandy with them)
Count Odo
>In reality: A young and charismatic Frankish lord who heroically defended Paris with 200 men against 30,000 vikings, thus leading him to be elected as the next King after Charles the fat died
>in the show: A disgusting fat old man with BDSM fetish who plot in the dark to overthrow his emperor
Æthelwulf
>In reality: A great king who was essential in stopping vikings from entirely taking over England
>In the show: A beta fool cucked by a monk and his own father
>>57273671
This.
Also, I like the part where it shows the great France governed by a pussy. Good anglo propaganda to be Frank.
WE
>>57273324
>Forgetting Kauko
I do not like it.
>>57273596
tl;dr Rolo is a Frankish vasal and Ragnar is addicted to Chinese medicine
>>57273172
No idea what goes on in this but my mom is obsessed with it. My family is 5th generation Mexican-American. Recently did a DNA test to track a weird genetic condition that runs in my moms side.
Turns out the German-Mexican part of our family are actually Swedes somehow. Mom finds out we're 1/8th Swedish. She now watches this shit religiously.
>>57273786
But Charles the Fat WAS a pussy
The one character they butchered is Odo
He was a 25 years old war hero who raped Rollo at the Paris siege of 885, and they made him a fat old faggot with weird fetish
>>57273970

Tell your mother the show is incredibly innacurate and that her ancestors were farmers not vikings
>>57273970
Well, just explain her that vikings were Danish, Faroese, Icelandic, Finnish and Norvegian, not Swedish
>>57274115
too monocultural?
I enjoyed the first seasons and the battles scenes are still good but it's becoming silly.
At some point, having everyone trying to backstab everyone just become boring.
Despite not being a Scandi, I'll answer anyway: I like the show. It's quite cool and, even with innacurate moments, it's as >>57273671 said.
Also, Ms. Winnick is so beautiful I can't say nay to her.

>>57274049
>Charles the Fat
>the Fat
He's the skinniest actor they could get for such persona. I think there's some kind of irony in there.
Not Scandinavian, but I kinda hated it. I feel like it lacked excitement (that maybe GoT has). Felt like I was watching Medieval Seinfield or something.
>>57273786
To be honest yours like many countries has had some shitty rulers. Charles VI thought he was made of glass.
>>57274235
I'm starting to like Athelwulf a lot too he was awesome when they rescued Kwentrith from that fort. He seems to be the least degenerated of the English characters.
I don't get why everone likes Lagertha so much though I think Gisla is easily the cutest girl on the show.
>>57273172
I find most of the actors performance cringeworthy. Especially on the scandinavian side, but others aren't much better.
Floki is the cringiest, especially in the more recent seasons.
>>57274916
>Floki is the cringiest
At least he's played by an actual Scandinavian
>women rowing in boats

who the fuck thought it was good idea to include those things

>>57273172
>Do Scandinavians watch Vikings
Why would they?
They don't even have horned helmets in the show
>>57273308
Agreed.
Americanized shit.
>>57274836
>Lagertha
Well, she's beautiful, determined, not vicious, doesn't cuck her husbands, is an Earl, has a host of shieldmaidens and doesn't look like a man.
>>57274189
Real Vikings were Swedish.
>>57274235
I watch the show for her desu.
>>57274916
I agree, he plays Floki like the caricature of a madman. The autistic giggles trigger me especially, and it's sad because I think the actor looks great for the role. But I guess since the point is that he's the pagan version of isis he was always doomed to be a cringy character
Shit show that only appeals to people who hold an obsession with scandinavia and vikings.
>>57275174
It's not American. Go bitch to the Canadians and Irish.
>Watch this because of muh heritage
>It's a just a bunch of fags who can't colonize for shit and just raid and pillage
Weak.
Plus girls are ugly jesus christ.
>>57275004
I don't know when people are going to come to terms with the fact that it's the physical equivalent of including 13 year old boys
then in an argument they'll always cite some outlier example or case where a woman did competently as if it proves anything
like the fact that someone surviving a failed skydive means that surviving a 4,000 foot drop is common or a rule
I like this show
>>57275287
Yeah, just like how real swedes are not a thing because that's racist.
>>57275336
Canada is America's hat.
>>57275287

Not the ones raiding the Isles and France. Swedes were lording over a bunch of dirt farming Balts and Slavic tribes.

>>57275604
did you invent Finnish culture then? Did you invent sauna? I DON'T THINK SO
pay reparations or face the consequences *breaks beer bottle in half and takes off fedora*
>>57275852
easy pekka for vittus sake
>>57275724
Ragnar lives somewhere along the Kattegatt which is the small sea between modern Denmark and Sweden, at the time all Denmark I believe. They have exaggerated the landscape a lot in this show, I don't remember where the Scandinavian places were filmed but certainly not in Scandinavia.
>>57275798
Kattegat is in Norway, King Horrik was Danish. Harald literally says he is king of all Norway so he has to overthrow Ragnar which implies Ragnar lives in Norway
>>57275891
*teleports behind you*
>>57275798
Denmark had mountains back then
>>57275798
>an american show
We had nothing to do with it. Are there even any American actors?
>>57275852
We invented the sauna, or bastu as it's really called.
of course they do
you put vikings on anything and they eat it up
>>57275004
>women rowing in boats
Modern scandinavian women are more masculine than Scandinavian men so the women can portray the vikings better than the men.
>>57275896
>Ragnar lives somewhere along the Kattegatt which is the small sea between modern Denmark and Sweden
proofs?
I like that episode when Franks absolutely destroyed shit vikings
>>57275952
kek your bastu is a shit 60 celsius homotent
>>57273671
I agree.
>>57274235
>Also, Ms. Winnick is so beautiful I can't say nay to her.
>>57273514

>>57275925
>Kattegat is in Norway
>>57273738
I saw you on /tv/ yesterday, Pierre
>>57275724
> Ragnar is norwegian
No, just no!
If Ragnar end up as king of Norway i'm officially quitting this show.
>>57275981
Well it says Kattegatt on screen every time they show Ragnars lands in the show. If you want proof that Kattegatt lies between Sweden and Denmark, I suggest googling it.
>>57275782
>TV show of conquistadors going around absolutely rekking Indians
>European dominance, superiority and power fantasy
I'd watch it
>>57276027
because it's impossible for 2 places to have the same name. Especially for something that long ago. Also in the series Kattegat is never portrayed as an isle
>>57275931
True, we took them from them at the Peace of Roskilde in 1658.
>>57275798
Isn't Ragnar's history murky? They probably picked him for the protagonist because not a lot of concrete information exists.
>>57275287
Like who? Even Rurik was Haplogroup Mongol
>>57276095
You need to stop thinking this show is correct or educational.
Kattegat literally does not touch Norway. The sea between Norway and denmark is Skagerrak.
>>57275993
My bastu is at 100 degrees.
My country even invented the Celsius-scale, so without us your saunas would be freezing.
>>57276024
Would be sweet though.
But yeah a show about killing muslims or a show about invading and colonizing the Americas Asia and Africa.
Yeah people would go crazy. Would love it though.
>>57276135
He was named Rurik, not Pekka.
>>57275896
Tbh flat as shit Danish farms aren't quite as beautiful as Norway's Fjords. It was probably an artistic decision.
>>57276095
>Kattegat
>Isle
U wot m8? It's just a name for the sea you fucking retard.
>>57276130
It's true. He's mostly considered mythical character based on a real and far more mudane but "forgotten" leader who might have been named Ragnar.
>>57276092
Thing is, conquistadores and Iberians in that time didn't just wreck Indians.
We had such a naval and military superiority at the time we would go around the world just beating up people.
>tfw no tv show about this
Ragnar is not norwegian, but Rollo might be a noble who fled from king Harald.
Only reason I've seen it tbaqhwyl
>>57276203
how common is sauna there? In Finland about 95% of us sauna at least once a week. I sauna about 3 times a week.
I remember watching Welcome to Sweden TV show and they went to sauna and drank booze in a house next to the lake. How common is that in Sweden? I was surprised when I saw it desu, here we buy "summer cottages" next to lakes so we can spend summer holidays in them saunaing and swimming in the lake and fishing

Yep, and in fact I'd say it happens more or less in circle 1. In CK2, however, Ragnar comes from circle 2...

Never heard of the brand before. But it looks okay (might be artificially coloured though). If it taste okay too, then it's probably norwegian. We export our salmons all over the world. It's practically our second biggest resource earner

Pleb...
Here's what we true patricians watch at night

There's a certain iron-y in this

It is more like give and absolutely fake version of the history.
Anyway, I dindt expect anything better of the "History" Channel.

This. Fairhair tried to take Bohuslän from us Swedes in the 800s. Thankfully, we took it back 1658

Are you implying something about based Hotell Cæsar?

>How diffrent is Old Norse from Proto-Norse
Uh, fairly. The difference is about as big as between Shakespearean English and Jamaican English. One big difference is that Norse developed definite suffixes whereas Proto-Norse had no seperation between "an elk" (algiR, elgr) and "the elk" (algiR, elgrinn).
The source material for Proto-Norse is very limited and, in lack of a better expression, badly spelled and extremely difficult to interpret. There's a lot we don't know for certain about it.
>>57278754
Norway, I know you're just Tsundere.
>>57278058
