Another good episode

Good episode with new storylines.

Some of the timelines didn't match. Some parts of the episode sounded like it was right after the season ending, others seemed like a year had past.

Overall, good episode.

Great show!!

I love this show so much!

Really glad I discovered the series. It has the perfect amount of everything. Drama, romance, battle, history, humour.

The actors are great and there are a bunch of characters you fall in love with. Be prepared for some tears because as it is in these stories not everyone survives.

1 also do love the pace and the music of the series.

There is action in battle and there is dialog with beautiful sceneries.

I feel like this is even better than game of thrones or vikings because it is less violent, but we still see the brutality of these times.

Another aspect I liked is the realness of the characters. Men cry too. They're strong warriors and man enough to show themselves vulnerable.

Poor start

The opening episode of the second season of last kingdom was underwhelming. New faces and conflicts are introduced are but they are too confusing and uninteresting at the same time. The plot is all over the place.

God save the king

Season two starts off with all the right people returning but has a decided lack of purpose. The prophecy is odd but it's cool to see that Hild is getting a key role.

The weakest episode so far ...

What happened ? I was looking forward for this new season but i had a big disappointment. The first season was great bat this episode is nothing like it. Poor screenplay and bad acting, not convincing. I hardly resisted till the end. It's the same director, same writers, same actors but everything went south. I hope the next episodes will be better.

Nonsense

Terrible, romanticizing history into utter nonsense.

The last season was interesting and enjoyable, if you didn't mind that religion being forced fed down your throat. However this season has started awful, and where it will lead from here is heresy. Nude nuns don't turn into assassins. The priests weren't swinging swords, which is how its religion spread, from martyrs, they fell on their swords for the name of their god, proving its message was more corruptible than any tyrants. Until of course people grew tried of its greed, meaning inquisitions were used to route any unbelievers often through committing genocide, controlling by keeping its corporate power-base intact, those taxes and the restriction of everything else scientific from rewriting historic records and changing the into its mythology. Until renaissances branched it into other faiths, and still it sought to force conversion upon any savages, taxing them.

My complaint is anyone else apart from a nun, the same gender using a different title, because what are you feeding me here, apart from utter nonsense. Next she will be beguiled by the deviltry abandoning her faith, as seen, or are you simply going to cut that character lose, pointlessly? Yawn.....
