Viking Ragnar Lothbrok is a young farmer and family man who is frustrated by the policies of Earl Haraldson, his local chieftain who sends his Viking raiders east to the Baltic states and Russia, whose residents are as poor as the Norsemen. Ragnar wants to head west, across the ocean, to discover new civilizations. With assistance from his friend Floki, Ragnar builds a faster, sleeker fleet of boats to help him make it to the Western world. Through the years Ragnar, who claims to be a direct descendant of the god Odin, continues to struggle with Earl until the two face each other in a final battle for supremacy. Following that, Ragnar goes on a search for new lands to conquer.

The best of what Vikings has to offer, besides artfully, horrifically staged sequences of warfare, is fierce Lagertha. Played by Katheryn Winnick (a black-belt tae kwon do teacher in a past life), she may be the most exciting feminist character on TV. Go to Full Review Maureen Ryan HuffPost 03/04/2014
This gorgeously shot drama -- and it's one of the most visually striking shows on TV -- is simple but not simplistic, and that's a crucial distinction. Go to Full Review Hank Stuever Washington Post 02/27/2014
Vikings exceeds expectations, so long as those expectations aren't up in Game of Thrones territory. What could be a silly exercise in quasi-historical swordplay is instead an earnest, tightly told family drama. Go to Full Review Tim Surette TV.com 03/02/2019
Floki is one of Vikings' most fascinating characters because he scares the bejeezus out of me. Go to Full Review Courtney Vaudreuil TV Equals 03/04/2014
One of the things I love most about Vikings is how visually arresting it is. It has one of the most haunting opening credit sequences that I've ever seen. Go to Full Review David Griffin Screen Rant 03/04/2014
The reasons for Vikings success stem from its stellar casting, and top-notch writing from Tudors veteran Michael Hirst. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
