    Its on episode 5...I think....of third series....I just came across it by accident...like the gods had planned it ! Not sure what it is about it that has me hooked...maybe its surreal storyline combined with a hint of toungue in cheek approach and great cast....hope you can get to catch up with it...

    Great show. Almost at the end now though. Network tried to can it after series 2, but produced the third after a fan revolt.

    I'm a big fan of this too. I've been watching it since it first started on Syfy but don't know anyone else who watches it. The best characters have to be Colin (Loki) and Olaf (Baldr).

    Yeah same here, i saw it by accident & somehow just made time for it as there was nothing else on & still watching it.

    Yeah Colin's a bit of headcase alright & Olaf is certainly goin thru the women, Mike is finally usin his powers, without his morals getting in the way as it was holding him back in earlier seasons.

    I didnt know that it was headin for the chop, i missed that bit, as its not overly hilarious, but is compelling to watch for some strange reason, it's probably Anders doin his mind trick thru the tv :D

    Watched the last one tonight. Going to miss it. It is hard to say what its appeal was, but it was just a bit different and I liked the humour.

    Yeah, it was just different than what was on. I didnt realise it was the end, until you look at the name of the last ep, although some of the characters were unbearable like Ty but the others made up for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    Came across this via Netflix recommendations. Like the rest of ye liked it and not sure why. Watched the two season within a week. Didn't know about the whole cancellation thing and that season 3 is the end.:( Will hopefully get to see it sometime anyway.

    Maybe when its finished they'll repeat it one w/end or you could watch it on SkyGo?

    Enjoyed the first 2 series, was just going to start into third. Does it come to a decent end? Do they tie up loose ends. Hate when series aren't given the chance to conclude properly.

    does Odin find frig ?

    Started watching it when it started, and thought it was a little lacking. Held on in, and have to say thoroughly enjoy it.

    Have just finished watching ep 13 of season 3 last night. With the cancellation attempt after season 2 i thought it was great tosee season 3 and that it would go on to season 4, etc. but can find no info about the possibility of a season 4.

    Won't ruin the thread with spoilers so will just have to wait till everyone has seen it to discuss.

    I hope so too, as was posted it was gonna get canned, so maybe they going to finish it up knowing this is the last series?
    does Odin find frig ?

    Well the 1st series was all about finding Frig
    2nd Season Afaik
    they found Frig at the end of 2nd series, as i cant remember what else happened Frig was the girlfriend at the end of S02
    3rd season
    told him to 'Frig' off & give her some space after what Anders/Braggi after sleeping with her


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,133 ✭✭✭Patty O Furniture


    Well all good things come to an end, & it ended on a high note, Frigg finally chose the right man & what a looker she was :)

    Have to say enjoyed it mostly, while sometimes it was a bit strange at times. but everyone went the way they wanted before departing, including

    Olaf who says he'll be old before he goes, while joining in a threesome! :D
