The inaugural Critics Choice Super Awards debuted on Sunday with the new awards seeking to celebrate and recognize genre entertainment across both film and television. In 2020, while the COVID-19 pandemic certainly changed the entertainment landscape with production shutdowns and delays, there were still action series keeping us on the edge of our seats from week to week. And at the Critics Choice Super Awards, Vikings took home the award for Best Action Series.

Vikings beat out 9-1-1, Hanna, Hunters, S.W.A.T., and Warrior.

The History channel series first debuted in 2013 and ran for six seasons — the back half of which was released on Prime Video on December 30, 2020. The series was inspired by tales of the Norsemen of early medieval Scandinavia.
