Vikings: Valhalla poster

Vikings: Valhalla is a Netflix historical action-adventure set in early 11th-century Scandinavia and England, following figures including Leif Eriksson, Harald Hardrada, and King Canute across three seasons of dynastic warfare, exploration, and political intrigue. The show trades on high production values, period costuming, and large-scale battle choreography inherited from its parent series. It functions primarily as ensemble spectacle — enjoyable, bingeable, and polished — rather than character-driven prestige drama. Its core audience is fans of the original 'Vikings' and comparable medieval epics who want immersive world-building and action, and who will calibrate satisfaction by comparing it to that predecessor.

From the reviewers

Great acting, good action, an enjoyable pace and depth in character development.
The 3rd season and ending felt like a little bit rushed and maybe even unsatisfying.
The production, acting, costumes, and setting maintain the excellence of Vikings.
A black countess in Norway is absurd; there's no need for forced inclusion.
some are very well-developed and interesting, like Canute or Leif, while others, like Freydis and Harald, never quite convince.
