On BBC America (no idea if it aired first though). Now with being on Netflix it's hard to say if it'll be a co-release with the UK or staggered. Given that Netflix is producing/co-producing I would assume it would release at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say it's the best one. Just to be sure we're talking about the same one: Spoiler It's the one with Uthred and Young Ragnar avenging their family! The whole situation in Northumbria was hilarious and incredibly entertaining. Compared to the other very repetitive books, it was outstanding.

Yeah even if you didn't like it there's still loads of material in it. Personally all the books kinda molded into one super book when I read them as there wasn't much difference in quality between them. I enjoyed all of them tbh. Still have to read Flame Bearer.

What's in my face? The non existent ratings of TLK on BBC America? Or the fact that Vikings is a top 10 series in cable, 8th most pirated in the world? That trailer looks like outtakes from season 3's TO THE GATES and Ragnar and Ivar at sea. Can't wait for the San Diego Comic Con Vikings trailer for season 5, playing in front of a packed auditorium of thousands of fans, with a Giant display of some kind on the convention floor. Im sure TLK will have a popsicle stand somewhere on the Con floor hocking key chains or something. One series has Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Katheryn Winnick, Alex Høgh, Gustaf Skarsgard... and the other has a block of wood. One series is culturally relevant in the world and one is not. Sad!

generalzod Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 I'll grant you this though, that trailer is a MILLION times better than that first pathetic teaser they released though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm excited for this but I have to say I'm not loving Uhtred's look. Wasn't a fan of it last season either (pretty sure I see similar 'costumes' on a slightly quirky night out, ymmv) but in the grand scheme of things I can overlook it as a minor gripe. Trailer looks awesome though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generalzod Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 You may not believe this (or even want me on this thread, but my name WAS thrown out there)... I will keep an open mind about TLK season 2. I do think the weird looking Alfred the Great actor David Dawson can act, and I am open to the show holding my interest even though the battle scenes (thus far) can't hold a candle to Vikings. I thought the pilot was promising, then lost me in a sea of bloodless boredom and derivative moments. But Butchard is capable of some juicy writing, his House of Saddam was quite good, and shows in general CAN improve...back in the day the first two seasons of TNG were godawful, and then it found its groove . If instagram is to be believed, season 5 of Vikings is literally covering the same rough time period as seasons 1-2 of TLK, so the already inevitable comparisons will become even more inevitable. I'm afraid TLK has likely brought a pocketknife to a gunfight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid TLK has likely brought a pocketknife to a gunfight. I think I'd rather have a pocketknife that's on target than a nuke that isn't. If both shows are covering the same period in the their new seasons then I might come back to Vikings in order to see the parody version - and there's a lot of TLK that's tongue-in-cheek to start off with! So "this spring" could be anywhere from tomorrow to May with the BBC. Maybe the US has a firmer date. The BBC is probably waiting to throw dice that correspond with a star chart before confirming anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
