It's not historically accurate woman wise, and I think it's trying to cater to female viewers as well.
You have to be an idiot to think Vikings didn't rape. That's what they did. Pillage and Rape.
Love the show otherwise though. The cast is almost perfect.
Hoping to see more seasons? I only wish more money and interest went into stuff like this instead of BS shows we see nowadays.
Yeah, that makes sense, aren't women the predominant viewers of fictional television and buyers of fictional books already?
I remember when the more educational networks (TLC, Discovery, History) came out, and compared to where they are now, it's so watered down.
TLC especially is just garbage reality shows. Quick wiki search gave me this list, wow, didn't even realize it was that bad:
"The channel has been criticized for departing from the original nature[10] of its programming, by airing shows of a controversial nature with what is described as having no educational value.[11] TLC programs that have come under fire from critics and the media include Toddlers & Tiaras,[12] Sarah Palin's Alaska,[13] LA Ink, Extreme Couponing, 19 Kids and Counting, Kate Plus 8, Sister Wives, Long Island Medium, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, and My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding."
I still don't know what/who Honey Boo Boo is, and I'm doing my best to keep it that way...has anyone dropped a post yet on the ridiculousness of modern celebrity culture?
