History‘s first original scripted series, Vikings, will debut on Sunday, March 3 at 10 PM. A family saga at heart, the nine-episode drama follows the adventures of Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel), a curious, compelling man who is always looking to break through barriers and discover new worlds to conquer. Vikings, created and written by Michael Hirst, charts Ragnar’s ambitions to discover civilizations across the great ocean to the west as well as his inevitable conflicts along the way. Gabriel Byrne, Gustaf Skarsgard as well as Katheryn Winnick, Jessalyn Gilsig, George Blagden and Clive Standen co-star. Here’s the first promo:
TV Editor Nellie Andreeva - tip her here.

Cool – surprised there hasn’t been a Viking series before.
Looks pretty good. Hope to get an even better trailer in the near future that gives viewers a better feel for the series as a whole. Love Jessalyn Gilsig but didn’t see her in the preview.
Ok, well, if no one else will, I’ll just say it- Someone in the History Channel promo department let Game of Thrones do most of the work.
As a promo guy, I totally understand why they want to give this a “Game of Thrones” feel. But when you make it this obvious, right down to the tagline, you risk annoying the very GoT fans you’re trying to reach.
Ya sure! Ima go yump in a fijord I’m so excited!!
Um, I’m looking forward to this, but how is this trailer not a rip-off of the Game of Thrones winter is coming trailer featuring flashes of a raven?
Wow! i can’t wait!….for season 3 of Games of Thrones!
OMG that awsome trailor
Can’t wait for that NOWWW
Either can’t wait for Borgia season 3 LOL!
Ravens are more akin to Vikings(Odin) than will ever be to game of thrones + this is based on something real people believed in!
I love GOT but life is a sad world if you only read one book….just as if you only watch one tv show
This looks awesome and can’t wait to see a proper trailer
