Hold the boat...
Watch Gods of the Arena first, It's prequel of S01 and the order which the TV series was released in.
Soo.. S01 Blood and Sand -> S00 Gods of the Arena -> S02 Vengeance.

Yes S2 would confuse you a lot if you didn't watch Gods of the Arena first.

After all this setup at this point, it would be sad if Illythia backstabbed Lucretia to save Glabber, yet it WOULD be in her character to do such a thing. She is a vile shrewd, I've wanted her out of the show for a long time.

Glabber dying gives an immediate return for Lucretia (Asher has no power now) -- So that is a point in favor of betrayal. Although if Glabber dies, that loses the possibility of revenge against Spartacus and Crixus (whom Lucretia hates). Still a tossup, I doubt she would betray Lucetria, I'd rather have it the other way around for once. Either way, lots of uncertainty makes for a good finale!

This. I think that Glaber and Asher are both in trouble. Asher is a near certainty, Glaber is a tossup.... I just wouldnt trust anything Illythia says but maybe she does want an alliance

Edit: But it may also be possible that Lucretia had no idea Illythia was going to prevent Seppia from killing Glabber

Also I still wish Glabber would have looked Verinius in the eyes and killed him

Don't count out the mighty Ashur so quickly! At the end of Blood and Sands I thought he was going to get be-headed and he escapes... sneaky ass fucker might escape with his life and end up taking over the Ludus like he was promised

Just watched all of the first and second season in like, a week. Unfortunately, me being a classics major and reading a fair bit about the Third Servile War kinda spoils the show a bit but it's still extremely awesome. It's a shame Whitfield died because he was a truly great actor D: And when does the season finale aire? The anticipation is killing me :x

I definitely agree with this, Lucretia has nothing to gain through saving Glabber and alot to gain through killing him

This is wrong. Lucretia is kind of screwed if Glaber dies. If he does, Ashur has free reign to do as he pleases with her. Lucretia needs rid of Ashur, not Glaber. Glaber has her set up nicely. Illythia needs Glaber gone for what he did to her. She cares nothing about Ashur.

I think Ashur will live and Glaber will die though.

I am loving this second season almost as much as the first season.

I think that the actor who replaced spartacus from season 1 is a little bit worse (IMO) so that is probably the main downside but despite this I am still enjoying this season a lot and am hooked again!
Upto ep9 right now and very excited and things are getting VERY interesting!
Get into it, because its still really good.

Not for people who don't like blatant over-emphasis of blood and tits!

We've been over this. No one was going to live up to Andy, he was just too boss.

Liam Mcyntire is not a bad replacement though.
