EPISODE REVIEWS

Leif finding Thorfinn after all this time should feel like relief and it mostly feels like grief. Bjorn's farewell to Askeladd before their final fight is quietly one of the most moving scenes of the season. A true friend's exit.

Episode Context

Coming directly after 'Crown,' where Canute's transformation into a decisive leader reached a turning point, 'Reunion' deepens the interpersonal stakes among the series' three central figures as the endgame approaches with only three episodes remaining. This episode serves as a critical bridge, it crystallizes shifting allegiances and unresolved grudges before transitioning into 'Lone Wolf,' where those tensions erupt into more personal, individual confrontations within the broader political power struggle.
