Featured review
Entertaining drama, fun/random context, full of alcoholic characters
The concept of Norse gods using New Zealandeers(?) as vessels is fun, really. It attracted me partly because I'm a Swede and I've always been interested in the mythology. Acting is pretty good, story lines aren't always so predictable, which I like (although it was very obvious who was Frig). The only thing about this show that really bothers me is the insane amount of drinking. I'm not against alcohol per se. I drink it myself. But it is glorified like it's holy water in this show. EVERY SINGLE character drinks beer/whiskey in just about EVERY SINGLE episode.
What the hell are the writers/directors thinking? The more alcohol the cooler a show? Having watched two seasons in just a few days it becomes very disturbing and remarkable how people are drinking in just about every scene.
But, the alcohol aside, it's a good show and I recommend watching it.
