Spartacus in The AnswerBank: Media & TV

Spartacus

Blood and Sand.

Anyone else watched this?

I admit I'm late finding out about this brilliant series, but I watched episode 1-6 last night utterly hooked.

If you've not seen it, and you like blood and guts, this is the one to watch :-)

Yeah, i was checking this morning, im in the process of downloading another 6 episodes of series 1.

I'm glad I persevered with it, I was put off at the beginning by the fake blood thing spraying everywhere.

The ones I've seen have been very good (if you like the Gladiator type thing) and not just blood and guts but some of the most riproarious sex I've seen on TV.

it's a really good series.
The 2nd and 3rd series were shown in the reverse order ot how was originally planned as Spartacus (Andy Whitfield) died form cancer and was undergoing treatment as the original 2nd series (that eventually became the 3rd) was being filmed
The new Spartacus in the last series looks pretty much like him

Worth watching to the end though

Spartacus is played by Liam Mcintyre isn't he OJ? Who have to say is pretty easy on the eye ;-)

Lol yeah Prudie, it does have it's share of sex scenes doesn't it? Along with the blood and gore, tis right up my street :P

Yep, in series 3 he is - they're both easy on the eye ;-)

Actually most of 'em are lol

jno

here's the tagline from IMDB

Watch the story of history's greatest gladiator unfold with graphic violence and explicit sex. This is Spartacus

not a fan of violence, myself, and I suspect explicit doesn't mean explicit, but apart from that it sounds fab.

Compared to www.youporn.com, the "sex" scenes are seriously tame...
