Welcome to the Legion!

History has renewed Vikings for a 4th season, thank God.

right???

right???

Of all the shows I’ve obsessed over in the last five years, Vikings seemed like it was in the running for the axe more than most. A scripted drama about Viking raiders on The History Channel. Surely my love was doomed- but NO. Maybe it’s a result of me yelling at so many people to go watch it, I’d like to think it is, but for season 3’s first 5 eps the show has been averaging 4.3 million viewers a night. Not. Too. Shabby.

We know we’re going to see Ragnar sack Paris, but a season 4 opens up the question of which historically-based storylines will we see next? Ragnar’s historicity is questioned, various deeds having been attributed to more probably sources, but there’s still legend left to mine, here. I am not, however, super jonesed about the idea of seeing him die, because ugh, my heart. Probably where we’re heading, though.

Whatever. Onward to Valhalla!
