'Vikings' to end after season 6 but here's why fans aren't entirely disappointed

The History channel's flagship show was bound to come to an eventual end, but now, there's a silver lining to the news
PUBLISHED JAN 7, 2019

'Vikings' will head to Valhalla after season 6, but it will not be the end of it.

Since the show started in 2013, it did not take long for the History Channel hit to become a global sensation. Highly compared with 'Game of Thrones', 'Vikings' had its own story to tell, revolving around protagonist Ragnar Lothbrok.

Currently, in season 5, Ragnar is dead but his many sons have taken center stage as protagonists and antagonists of the season. Airing every Wednesday since the show resumed the second half of season 5 on November 28, the show continues to be a fan favorite despite Ragnar's departure.
