I saw some of this last night.  It is like a Fangoria magazine crossed with an issue of Playboy with some really bad acting mixed in between.  I loved it!

Mr. DS

This week's ending was sadenning to say the least.  I love the twists and turns...it seems no one is to be trusted.

Yep, the episode "Delicate Things" has a nice long shot of them.    :thumbup:

Wow Lucy Lawless is way more hotter in this than Xena. :buggedout:

Season ONe came out on video last week, and I'm on the third DVD - just finished the episode entitled "Whore".  Wow, I am conflicted here . . .

On the one hand, I will admit the story has completely sucked me in.  I can't wait to see the great slave rebellion get underway!

On the other - is that much nudity REALLY necessary?  I mean, I'm no prude, but this thing should be subtitled BLOOD AND BOOBS!  And I must admit; I have seen enough gladiator weenie to last me a lifetime!

But the story gets better with every episode . . .

Neville

I'll confess: I ended up watching the entire season, an enjoying most of the episodes. A lot.

At first I was taken back by the visuals and its exploitative tone, but once John Hannah's character becomes a regular I was hooked. Couldn't get enough of his schemes.

And the boobage ammount certainly didn't hurt.
Due to the horrifying nature of this film, no one will be admitted to the theatre.

Mr. DS

This show, as already mentioned by myself repeadedly above, is simply awesome.  As Neville said the visuals were kind of odd to intake at first but they really scale back a bit in later episodes.  Of course this is in lieu of awesome plot twists.  Every episode held something shocking.

Side note, they're working on a prequel to the Episode 1 story because the actor who played Spartacus had health issues.  I can't wait.  :thumbup:

I finished Season One last night.  For those who haven't seen it yet, all I can say is . . . it's entitled KILL THEM ALL!

It was by far an awesome ending, probably the best finale to a season ever

On a side note, I can't even think of the word "Spartacus" without that s**tty Menudo song from the old Nickelodeon cartoon going through my head.
