I have not read the books, but I've read about them a bit.

I like the show...

but is Uhtred one of the biggest idiots in history? He honestly drove me a bit insane with his pride and stupidity.

No. not at all. His arrogance sometimes gets him into trouble, but his intelligence and sheer ferocity bail him out. Esp as he gets older, he's rather brilliant as a military tactician. But that's why he's a great character, and here's where you need the books to really understand him. He's a heavy mix of aggression, intelligence, arrogance, and loyalty.

My favorite thing about Uhtred is he is unapologetically a medieval warlord. It's what he is, and what he always strives to be. None of the tiresome moral debates that seem to plague every character these days when it comes to violence.
