And if the IMDb allowed one word reviews (they do not) that would be the whole review.
This reviewer grew up on the "sword and sandals" epics.
And this reviewer was lucky enough to catch the latest iteration of that genre in TV productions like Spartacus (a series so solid that even though the quality lessened as the series wore on, no one really noticed or cared) And now we have Vikings, from the History channel no less.
This could be one of the most perfect hours of TV ever created. It is hypnotic. Part of you wonders whether you are watching something even close to historical fact, and part of you is having so much fun you don't care.
That is TV at its best.
