I've found this to be by far the best TV series for several years. It could easily have been a cross between Gladiator and the 300 but failing miserably but somehow it has made it.
I agree about Batiatus. He's a nasty SOB but he's my sort of guy. He has all the best lines but you can relate to all his business and political problems.
Whatever Spartacus does next, you've got to think that Crixus is going to go totally ballistic given half a chance.
When it first started I thought the sex, violence and swearing were masking poor writing and plotting but as it continued it seemed to get stronger and stronger with plot strands coming together with satisying conclusions and the development of varying characters being thoroughly entertaining to watch. Hannah was a revelation.
By the conclusion, it was great to see many get their comeuppance in wonderfully violent means. Top draw entertainment and I look forward to the short prequel and the next full series which I believe starts shooting in October.
On a side note I have to say how impressed I am with Andy Whitfield, the lead actor. Obviously he's battled and beaten cancer but I love his 'normaln-ness'. None moreso portrayed than him seeing some videos on youtube that he thought looked cool, emailing the creators to ask if he could appear and then fitting it into his schedule. Brilliant.
Thanks for not using spoiler marks for all your previous comments !!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad: Not worth watching it at the weekend now... :mad::mad::mad:

Not worth watching now?.
Sorry, you are completely wrong.
And "spoilers" are only good manners, but for programmes not yet shown, not because you havent watched them yet!.

If you haven't watched a programme then I suggest you don't come on here after the series has ended if you don't want to know what happens!!:rolleyes:
Your post would suggest that everyone's comments should be covered by spoiler tags.
Yeah Spoilers should be used when discussing things that you know about but they haven't been shown yet.
Once they have been broadcast I'm afraid there's no requirement to use them. If you choose to watch a program later than it's broadcast date then it's entirely up to you to stay away from the forum.

i was actually surprised, i didn't think that they would do what they did...awesome!!!
Many early PR pieces about Xena stated that she had "died her naturally blonde hair dark for the role" and she was rather vague wheneever interviewed.

You mean Ilythia - played by Viva Bianca.

Admit I am Spartacus, go on, admit you are wrong, because.

Batiatus: How many men would you kill who said they were Spartacus?
I would kill them all!
I AM SPARTACUS!
Still worth watching the finale
it has to be seen - written words don't do it justice
when is the blu-ray released for this?
