hahaha good plan ;) If we're going by history we kinda can predict what will happen between Lagertha and Ragnar...

They still *could* show us what happened after the sacrifice (I'd be fine with a flashback) but I'm not optimistic we'll get it. I have a feeling they're going to want to charge ahead with the story ASAP in season 2.

I hated Thyri, I can't lie xD I feel bad about it, but she just grated on me as a character and it only got worse when she was randomly selected as Athelstan's plot-required partner. I know part of it is that I'm mad that she broke up my ships, but another part is that I just don't like her. And I don't particularly like Siggy either, oops :x (Though I did LOVE the scene where Siggy killed Thyri's husband) So I wasn't sad when she kicked the bucket.

Actually, they DID have to rewrite it later on; when they first started, it was going to be a miniseries, apparently with 13 episodes or something like that; when they were taken on as a series, they ended up only having 9 episodes but with the potential of having more seasons; and then midway through season 1 they were renewed. So I can't blame the writers for having to scramble to create a coherent story.

I can understand why Thyri might not be everybody's cup of tea. I personally felt for her and thought she was understandable and sympathetic. Part of it is, again, the wasted potential. You have this character who suffered horribly. How does she grow now that that's over and she's surrounded by strong and intelligent women? How does she function in a society without therapy or much understanding of the trauma of marital rape? Could she become a shield maiden? Policy advisor to L and R? That would be cool. Oh, we're just going to kill her off? Dammit.

And her going after A made sense. If you get out of a terrible rapetastic marriage, you're going to want to make your own choices. And I would guess you would be attracted to a genuinely nice guy, which A is. They're not my OTP ('cause it's not like we got many scenes of them together) but they could've been good together.

Siggy wasn't a favorite of mine either. The backstabbing got tiresome.

Huh. I didn't know all of that. Guess that explains some of the confusion.
