I'm done. Seriously. I've waited patiently for over a year to see the conclusion to this story, fully expecting Björn to live, and now this?! It was already clear, after season four, that the writers have just chucked historical accuracy right out the window, but this takes the cake. Björn Ironside was a legendary king. Not only because he was a great ruler, but also BECAUSE HE DIED OF OLD AGE. Which was pretty unique in those days. And now he is slain by Ivar?? Worthless, horrible, psychotic Ivar?! It should have been the other way around, that would have been the only righteous conclusion to this series. And instead they let great king Björn be killed off by his psycho kid brother, 10 episodes before the ending. As if Lagertha being killed by Hvitserk wasn't bad enough, and now this...
Never before have I quit watching a show in which I have invested years of attention, interest and, hell - I'll say it - loyalty, but now I have. I will not continue to the end. Truth be told, the quality of this show has left a great deal to be desired since the death of Ragnar, but now my patience is officially up.
