At least I'm (halfway) hiding my eyes more. But there is something artistic (beautiful, as you say) about the ritualistic and spiritual aspects of their traditions, as violent as some of them are. I read an article this week saying that perhaps much of the violent behavior attributed to the Vikings as marauders was bestowed upon them by their victims, who wrote the historical accounts handed down to us. But certainly not all of it. I was loving Lagertha so much in episode 4!!! Ragnar is very lucky she is willing to help him out. As for SoA, it is on my list of shows to binge watch when I get a chance. I hear so many people raving about it! I think my neighbor just bought DVDs of all the seasons, so I can borrow them. My reading time really cuts into my tv viewing time, and it's hard to find enough time for either one!

And I have to say I actually prefer watching Vikings because this violence is... more beautiful in a strange way. Anyway, amazing post! xxMae.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15640196700282105450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3488044569882591569.post-89963985680992726482014-03-07T22:10:20.407-08:002014-03-07T22:10:20.407-08:00What a great post, Kathi!

Between Vikings, The Walking Dead and Sons of Anarchy I have more than enough violence and gore, but also a kind of beauty, though I can't count how many times I averted my gaze during violent scenes.Merit MacFraserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11606727596242443504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3488044569882591569.post-38423712902605112502014-03-07T21:12:08.822-08:002014-03-07T21:12:08.822-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Merit MacFraserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11606727596242443504noreply@blogger.com
