Amazing series but..

Love this show. One of the best series I've watched in some time. Amazing character development and as the seasons progressed; bigger budget with better action and scenery.

My only major complaint with this season and the time jump, is that characters like Uhtred didn't age a day. Some characters have aged by 10 years and he remains as young as when we met him in the first season.

I believe he would be somewhere in his 60's at this point in the story. I'm not saying they needed to go full throttle with the makeup, but some minor aging would have made a bit of sense.

I am willing to stretch my imagination for other holes; like their ability to basically teleport and be in various parts of the country within a matter of hours or less.

If you can get past little things like that, man is it an epic series.
