Haakon Jarl is just wasted in this show. They missed out on the best character of the viking age. He was a ladies man, and the best warrior.

I lost interest in Vikings when Ragnar himself died but now I am watching Valhalla because of this character called Leif. He is wise, smart and he read people very well and when I look at him I see a real Vikings like the original series and he remind me on Ragnar so much because he even speak like him. I am watching this new show because of this character Leif and I believe they have a big plan for him in coming seasons. People I have talked with about the show love him already and they want to see more of him in coming seasons.

[@seadee2834]

Yeah me too. I am really interested in his character and what he will do. From his friendships, relationships and actions he is a very likable character. Can't say the same for Freydis though. Don't know shit about her except what happened in the past and she's now "the last". Didn't even mention her own brother (who went to england for her debt and kattegat for her revenge) after the battle and if he was alive or not.

[@MAN59724]

Really enjoyed this video. There was a lot of bits I didn’t realise that resonated so much with the original series!

[@kristianvejrup5808]

I still can’t believe they skipped the era where Harald Bluetooth lived… Bluetooth ruled both Denmark and Norway, and is famous for being the viking King who was convinced to make the vikings Christians. He was a powerful King who built many great forts in Denmark and Norway, and had a great stone placed in Jutland, with runes reading: “Harald made the Danes Christian. The Harald who United all of Denmark and Norway too.” You can still go and see the stone to this day. At the end his own son, Sweyn Forkbeard, rebelled against him, and it was a kind of civil war thing, where Harald lost, was hunted out of Denmark and later died. Could make for a great tv show, but they chose to skip forward some hundred years…

[@sewing0192]

Occurring 100 years after the original Vikings, I noticed that the Vikings had not advanced that much technologically. Not that I could see.

By constantly peppering the show with woke race and gender role swaps and woke messages like “I believe her” the show creators degrade a viewer’s ability to immerse in historical realism and transport oneself back in time. It’s not total fealty to the history that matters to me (though I do appreciate broad historical accuracy) it is telling a great story with great acting that is utterly and truly historically plausible that makes for a great show. That is the kind of movie magic is utterly lost in this show with its undertones of propaganda interspersed throughout which transport viewers to the crappy reality of today’s culture wars and not the Viking and Anglo Saxon history of the past. I stopped watching in the middle of episode 2 despite being a fan of the original series. Wokeness is a cancer in our culture that ruins everything.

Im not even white but I dont like it when they put non white characters in these roles, it makes no sense. Takes you out of the whole experience. Its very distracting

[@nas5610]

this show gets the history so bad it’s hard to watch knowing the characters are supposed to be based off real historical people.

@Nay Sayer I'm here. He's in my family line. Vikings used a lot of oral history through their own families. But we have done our geneology. And once done the oral history was correct. Ragnar and rollo werent brothers but I'm from his line to. All 3 of my grandparents are descendents of vikings. 4th grandparent I haven't done the line yet.. And my one grandma was Rus and she even carried on a lot of their traditions she taught me and my daughter. When the guardian of the young king said he'd cut his tongue off with shears for teasing him was spot on. We died laughing. My grandma told me that as a kid when I stuck my tongue out at her. She really wouldn't but scared me to behave. After doing my geneology there's some theories from scholars I'm finding aren't even accurate. Like they don't know what happened to certain lines or families after a certain point, they immigrated to America as early back as the pilgrims time and were farmers, inventors, preachers, some helped build the colonies here, ect.

@Nay Sayer the njals saga and hjemskrigla sagas is a recorded history of norse hero's and battles. Also his son is buried in Sweden how was he conceived.

[@alfonseklyne9027]

@Nay Sayer yeah dude your not wrong back in the days of vikings alot of different nomadic tribes existed. Like as picts(scots),celtic(irsh)and germanic they worshipped similar gods.

Is Leif the secondary main character Cuh I feel like they advertised him as the main to draw fans in but their actually just showing his sister

[@slicedbread4553]

He should be! Leif was one of the best Vikings of all. The son of Erik the red. His sister was also a great Viking but this season is so WOKE! It’s all about girl power crap. i like the tie ins to the original cast but this show doesn’t come close to being great like the ragnar ones

[@NordicDan]

How about the fact that one of the greatest Viking rulers was race and gender swapped for MUH DIVERSETUH. Crap gaslighting and insanely disrespectful to Scandinavian culture. Just as bad as if Shaka Zulu were to be played by Scarlett Johansson.

I can’t believe they have taken the woke fake feminist route to ruin one of my favorite show. This is a straight spit on everything that was amazing about Viking. The hard work of the actors and writer. This is obviously just picky back / riding on the success to push a woke narrative in hope for this show to make them money. Viking original did Feminist justice. Vahala is just 🤢

[@kca_randy]

I still hate Rollo.

[@simeceleski9700]

Ragnar would not be happy if he knew a black woman is in charge of kattegat. Always an agenda with shows these days...

[@realleftover]

Honestly I give 0 fucks about that there was a black woman in the show as ruler. What pisses me off is that historically speaking, it's complete BS. They should've made up a character if they wanted diversity, but not take Jarl Haakon and display him in such an inaccurate way💀

[@mrhumble2937]

Almost all the shit they do isn't historically accurate, go read a book or watch a you tube channel if you want that.

[@realleftover]

@@mrhumble2937 I agree... The show was never historically accurate lol but at least the characters were the same ones from the original sagas. Sure Rollo wasn't ragnars brother etc., but he existed, Lagertha existed, Aslaug existed, Ragnar and his sons too, etc. And Jarl Haakon existed too but they just turned him into someone completely different. It's also the thing that they probably did this for political reasons which is just ridiculous cuz they should've known that their target group is not necessarily filled with the right audience for that material.

[@MrRayRockstar]

Kattegatt doesn't even exist. Wah wah wah 😢

[@mrhumble2937]

@@realleftover by why is that the line. Why aren't people mad that Rollo isn't his brother. Or the hair color is different. Has to be skin color that crosses a line for some.

[@realleftover]

@@mrhumble2937 because there was no political agenda behind using Rollo as Ragnars brother. I was born and raised in Germany as a son of Italian immigrants, and having dark features here or a non German name (which I happen to have lol) means constant confrontation with racist comments or direct racism everywhere. And nobody gives 1 F. Especially on the countryside. I will never be accepted as German. I know racism. My grandfather was a prisoner in the concentration camp. + I learned Nigerian Pidgin for my volunteer work with refugees from west africa. And i love them and srsly this has nothing to do with race. Idgaf where anyone comes from as long as they are a good human. This is all about the political agenda they were trying to push in such a series.
