Last night, on the History Channel, viewable to USA and Canada, the premiere of the show "Vikings" aired. I could not help but draw obvious similiarities between the two (clearly Skyrim has Viking inspirations). The lead character is the infamous Ragnar Lodbrok. I could not help singing Ragnar the Red from ole Roriksted. Additionally, I noticed some of the same skyrimy war paint on many of the characters, like Floki had the deep black eyeliner with lines coming down the ends of the eyes, like tears on the opposite ends.

So did anyone see it? Anyone keep thinking of Skyrim while watching it? Any parts of the show you wished were added to Skyrim?
Here is the trailer:

I instantly thought of Skyrim when i saw the promo.

Another "This reminds me of Skyrim" moments.
