I really liked Norsemen. You need to like monty pythonesque humor to enjoy it though.
The village , clothing & weapons in Norsemen are probably more accurate than in Vikings.
Vikings is not historically accurate. Some of the characters existed , but not in the time frames of the show, or what they achieved .
The timeline in vikings is like having George Washington fighting alongside Abraham Lincoln against Winston Churchill. While it has some enjoyable story lines please don't think there is much real history in Vikings.
