You know what? Fuck you and the horse you rode in on, Michael Hirst.
So, they kill off Athelstan. And not because the actor wanted to leave, having a new show, Versailles, but because the creator, Michael Hirst, decided this was a good way to solve Athelstan's "major issues" - see his readiness to embrace both Christianity and paganism. I shit you not: link.
Several weeks ago, I would've been actually upset about what happened on Vikings last night. I would've raged and cried bitter tears. These days? All I can think is, "Well, why I'm not surprised?" I'm done with the show and I sure as hell won't be buying it on DVD. Another series down the drain and good riddance.
Seriously, is there something in the water or something? All my shows are fucking up big time this season and I hate, literally hate the direction in which they're headed, all of them. I'm taking more and more of them of my list because how annoyed I am with them as of late. And now Vikings fucked up big time, too. Seriously.
