Watched 11.22.63. based on a Stephen King novel about a guy who goes back in time to stop the Kennedy assassination.

It was ok but i felt it kind of dragged a bit.

New season of VIKINGS starts tonight, double 8.30pm-10.30pm, repeated saturday night.
Ragnar is back, hmmmm

And it looks like somewhere in this new season Lagertha may get some revenge on the bitch queen :):):)
I seriously watched the marathon last week to catch up, all HOT night long, great stuff for a night too hot to sleep, but weary
 
Ah, was going to post something in response to "poor" Ragnar, then I realised it could be a spoiler for some. This show just keeps powering on!
 
Don't you love it @Tuttle, I love everything about this show so much.
The Floki/Ragnar stuff was so awesome.

and bring on the day of Laegertha, god I love her.
Boneless is pretty damn good
 
Actually, Floki I sit on the fence with, perhaps too stuck with the old ways (great acting though!) Basically, every character relevent to the story and so interesting with their reactions.
Been team Lagertha from the start, always hated the homewrecker! LOL
Ivar is terrifying! Played so well.

Yeah the evil queen, will be good to see her demoted, bitch she is.
Floki, amazing actor, and yeah I don't agree with his ways, but the love was gorgeous closure.
Ragnar is on a suicide mission, this Aussie actor has been astoundingly good, I wonder what he is up to next.

Did you watch the real vikings history specials? With some of the actors involved, Laegertha was so fun, so thrilled to find evidence of the warrior shield maidens.
