the last 2 episodes were better, but overall season 3 was disapoiting. No real naevia, no real spartacus, too little surprises, nothing that draged me in. In season 1 the plot was way more twisted and I liked that the most. You could see the characters evolve from episode to episode and this was totaly lacking in season 3. The great optic is cool for a 2 minute trailer, but in a 50 minute episode you need more than that to keep the audience excited. Maybe they shouldn`t have made season3 at all after Andy died - his aura was immensly important for the series as a whole and the character of spartacus.

As much as I disliked this season, I found myself eager in anticipation for the next episode from five onwards (even though I was eventually disappointed). It managed to keep me in suspense. Shitty Spartacus is still better than no Spartacus. The manga series Bleach is an exception to this rule.

now that im unbanned I can say a pretty solid season overall just like season it started out a little slow and people were concerned but just like season 1 I felt like it built up and got stronger and stronger cant wait for the next season.

Liam doesn't bring the same feel that Andy Whitfield did... And I feel that the drama doesn't have the bigger scheme of things.. I'm just eagerly awaiting the Slave War that Spartacus actually brought with him.... not a small Robin Hood group doing guerilla warfare again and again and again.

Don't worry, that has been said many times before on the first 3 or 4 ish episodes. Gets crazy in the last 5. Slow start, epic ending.

This season lacks Batiatus' epic quotes (as well as many others from the previous seasons)

Didnt enjoy this season too much. The new Spartacus wasnt bad...just not as good and it was noticable. Wasnt as big, didnt have the square jawline and didnt demand the the scenes very well. The only thing which kept the season decent was Gannicus and Anamaius(?).

I think Spartacus Vengeance wasn´t nearly as good as B&S.

But I wonder if Ashur´s loss to Naevia was intended by Ashur or not.
...He was far stronger than naevia, he saw the love between naevia and crixus, he saw the "noble gesture" of the rebells and finally he knew that he would die there.

There was nothing to win for him. Maybe the act of losing the fight by bringing himself into a weak spot was a "good" one.

By any chance, has anyone heard any news of this going to a 4th season?

Yes there is going to be a 4th season, and they were recently doing castings for Ceaser, so we'll see him in the show, I'm fairly certain that we'll also see Marcus Crassus in the show.

I love al three of the series but i really do believe they need to pay attention to hows been killed or seriously injured in big battles as I always see at least one person get killed twice in every battle.

Awesome non related Spartacus news:

With Spartacus drawing to a close with its upcoming final season Spartacus: War of the Damned set to premiere on Starz in January, we're left to wonder what series creator Steven DeKnight will do next. Starz answered that question when they recently announced that DeKnight has a new sci-fi project in development called Incursion. We spoke with him about it on Friday when we had the opportunity to sit with him to discuss Spartacus at Comic Con and he had some interesting details to share on what they have in mind for the series.

Well, to be honest, this season was a big disappointment to me. The new actor for Spartacus just doesn't fit, a million other guys would've been better. The plot wasn't really very intriguing to me either, but does anyone really watch spartacus for the plot?
If only Andy didn't die, oh man. Poor guy.
I hope that I'll adjust to the new guy by the next one, but it just doesn't feel right. Andy really had something special about him, everything was perfect.
