Ivar the Boneless---now Ivar the God, because of course he is---has taken cartoon villainy to a new level. Meanwhile, the whole thing feels weirdly rushed like it's been stapled together and is about to fall apart. He was fine with Ivar killing Ubbe and Bjorn and that other brother that totally had it coming, but he's upset about the crazy Margrethe? Even the more likeable characters such as Alfred, Ubbe and Lagertha are all either shadows of their former selves (Lagertha) or of their predecessors. Ubbe is just a young Ragnar with a much less interesting story.
