Synopsis
The Nordic satire rolls on: Norsemen (Vikingane, 2016), Season 2 is a Norwegian comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM — six episodes set in the year 791, with Norheim still squabbling over power and plunder.
Arvid and Frøya haul rich spoils back from England while Jarl Varg's eastern raids flop, leaving him itching for payback. Orm and Rufus end up in chains and get cosy with their fellow slaves. Liv comes home and shakes things up, Arvid slaps a "protection" tax on the farmers and earns a revolt, and a plot against the Law Speaker reshuffles who matters in the village. By the finale the map west slips out of Norheim's hands.
The writers keep crashing the Viking age into modern absurdity — from the sorry state of metalwork in 791 to petty office-style turf wars. This run plays meaner and more tangled than the first. Stream Norsemen Season 2 online on iFILM.
