Norsemen on Netflix is very Funny
I gave a look at Norsemen several months ago, and just couldn't get into it. But I know why now - the relationship between a character and his wife... it just reminded me of some painful memories. But hey... it is what it is. This is a funny show. Reminds me of Monty Python in many ways. The show has no laugh-track, or studio audience, so it's just the actors and the dialog.
What's so funny about this show is that the dialog is straight out of the current day - but the actions and people are still in the year 790. It's just what you'd expect from something like The Holy Grail. Very funny.
References to things like "Free Speech" and the jokes... it's just really funny, and the actors are just amazing. Worth a look.
UPDATE: OK... in the second season, the scene where one character talks about the dominos falling, and then explains it with "a chain reaction" - it's just too funny. I really like how they don't wait for people to laugh. They just say things that make no sense for 791 AD.
