Spartacus

[an dee 51o]

This is seriously my new favorite show. I watched the first 12 eps in like 3 days

. Everything about this show is amazing. Plot, action, women

. Pretty much zero boring parts throughout the whole thing.

THE PIT?!

Ashur is both my favorite and least favorite character. Always scheming

What he did to Crixus and Naevia.... damn.

Pretty sure that I read that Spartacus' wife has cancer, that's why it's delayed.

Finale should be amazing.  Spartacus and the rest of the gladiators slaughtering everyone.  I hope he gives Mira some action too.  He treats her like crap but you can tell she still wants him.  They need to get rid of the corny special effects/blood spatter for next season though.

yea it's ridiculous. Same thing happened to Michael C. Hall who's the title character on Dexter. Top billing on pay cable is starting to get cursed.

Son, this is hands down the most slept on show.. I mean, hot women, gratuitous violence, great non-linear storyline. Let me say that again, storyline is crackkkkkk.

You can only use OnDemand if you have the HDVR though, no? I have DirectTV and I think a HDVR is needed so you can stream the show online.

This show is awesome. Spartacus is that dude. Story is pretty good, and then you throw in boobs?!?!?!?!? WIN!

i have been watching this from the very start... it really is a great show... it's a mixture between 300 and Gladiator.

Yeah, with DirectTV you need to have the HDVR so you can stream the show through your TV. 
As for the finale, I was a bit disappointed.

SPOILER ALERT

Although all the action and overall scheme of escaping and killing everyone, the twist with Crixus and Doctore being a lanista, it still felt uneventful teh way it ended.

Outside of Ashur surviving, it felt like it could have concluded better or at least throw a teaser for what is to be expected next season.

It just felt like the series could end there and that was it.

Yup, you finally get to see what's under that armor

 

[play2much2004]

Will be catching the last episode tonight

 

[me4u2night]

By far the best show. Every episode has you yearning for more.

I'll go so far as to say this show is better then Dexter and Lost...

I see where you are coming from, but it's just the beginning!

Spoiler

Spartacus and company (all the slaves and Doctore) are bound to be going to lead a revolt, as they stormed out of the House of Batiatus to end season one. I hear in the movie from the '60s (if the show has anything to do with the movie), it turns into a war and not just a revolt.

 

[brum90]

For those asking where to see it, if you've got netflix, all the episodes are available to stream through netflix.

Andy Whitfield (Spartacus) was diagnosed with cancer. Not his wife.

For those of you saying you felt the deaths of Lexrica and Legatus were a bit underwhelming - take this fact in... Lawless (the actress behind Lexrica) is married to the shows producer in real life. I bet she lives somehow. She's the only one who knew about that blonde lady killing the other one.

SPOILER
Ashur knows and he is still alive.
I think Mira knows too, same with Naevia.

 

[ridingonlorenzos]

^^ Trueee I forgot bout them

 

[calypso chanta]

Just seen the 1st episode of season 3. It looks like ishh just got real.

New actor for sparticus is straight, he's not andy whitfield great but he's def not bad. He just has to grow on me some. With that being said, seeing familiar faces helps gel it all together smoothly and it looks like a great start to the new season. Anyone else check it yet? You can see it ondemand if you are subscribed to stars.
