The episode is full of great ensemble scenes with everyone on hand to discuss the situation. Last week there was a bit of fear that having Gaia be The Frigg would be too easy, but it seems this show isn’t going to make it half as straightforward as we feared. It looks like the whole Gaia thing is going to get a lot more complicated than we thought. We expected this plot to be carried through to this week and once again this show hits us with a perfect curve ball by having Gaia kidnapped right under Axl’s nose. Gaia’s rant at Axl at the end of this week’s episode is completely understandable she’s had her whole world turned upside down and her destiny is laid out before her whether she likes it or not.

That she uses the branch to heal Mike’s injured back with ease means she seems to know how to control the branch by episode’s end and we wonder what else she might coax the branch to do. We know something happened to her when she healed Axl two episodes back and here she’s obviously interested in finding out more. (More on this below)Īfter being discarded as useless by Anders last week the branch from Yggdrasil is back in the spotlight as Michele steals it.

Eggther is also worthy of note, Oliver Driver brings far more to the role than the simple “heavy of the week” the character could have been. It’s nice to see Zeb getting to do more than just be the comedy sidekick now and then.
Zeb gets his moment to shine as he talks a desperate Eggther down. The resolution to the Eggther-kidnapping-Zeb plot is as mad cap as only this show can do with a Norse God stand-off which soon descends into hilarious mayhem. The through line of antagonism between Bryn and Thor about how many giants Thor’s killed and the hammer-wielding God’s constant suspicion of all things relating to giants in general – and to Bryn in particular – is a constant comedy highlight of the episode. Thor’s arrival is as memorable as we hoped, he’s the kind of character that you could soon get tired of, but used sparingly like this he’s an absolutely fantastic addition. But with all the doom hanging over them we wonder how comfy they’ll get and just how long they’ll have until disaster comes calling. Ty even comments about how nice Anders is being to her and Helen does seem to fit with the rest of the Gods pretty well. Anders and Helen do come across as perfect for each other they do make a good looking couple. Olaf’s cryptic “Apples” advice is as amusing and useless as ever. There’s a mix of alarm bells and apathy from Ty about the prophecy concerning any relationship the two have. on Mondays.Meanwhile at the pub: after Anders and Helen got to know each other in the toilet stall in the last episode they are properly introduced this week. on Mondays, and in the United Kingdom on Syfy on 17 September 2012, airing at 10:00 p.m. on Fridays, in Canada on SPACE on 14 January 2013, airing at 10:00 p.m. on Fridays, and on SF on 22 March 2013, airing at 9:30 p.m.

Series 1 holds a "100% fresh" rating at Rotten Tomatoes, critics giving 8 out of 10 points, and 88% from audiences. This section contains spoilers! Reception Matters are complicated by the presence of three Norse goddesses who are trying to find Frigg before the Johnsons do to prevent the restoration of the gods' powers (which would vault them above the goddesses), as well as an antagonistic reincarnation of Norse god Loki, and the appearance of a Māori deity pantheon toward the end of the second series. The problem is, they do not have full control of their powers and it is up to Axl (the reincarnation of Odin) to restore them and ensure the family's survival by finding the reincarnation of Odin's wife, Frigg. The show follows a student named Axl Johnson, who on his 21st birthday discovers his family members are reincarnated Norse gods. The show was cancelled in December 2013 by a radio announcement on Radio New Zealand by TV3 programming boss Mark Caulton.
