There is other ways to watch the episode that wont result in criminal prosecution. | ||

Last 20 min were pretty awesome though. Action: check, Blood: check, Illithyas boobs: oh hell yes, check. That last fight scene was pretty sweet. | ||

Then it goes into a long boring shlemp with gratuitious sex. At least in the first series the sex seemed to further a plot. Here it was just "hrmmm... Spartacus has a girlfriend, so they must have sex". The scenes in the whorehouse were also completely over the top ridiculous. The boring gladiator fight was boring on TV, not just in the arena. And finally we get some cool action with Spartacus versus Romans. If the rest of the season is like the end of episode 1 it's fine. If it's like the first 40 minutes or so... I pass. I think a lot of the sex in both of the preceding seasons was gratuitous and completely unnecessary. Still loved them both for the parts they did well! | ||

Last 15 minutes mind=BLOWN whoooaaaaaaa. Did not see that coming. I was a little apprehensive about the "Lucretia is still alive" plot twist, but now I'm thinking it's going to pay off big time and add a big layer of complexity to the story. | ||

Ask anyone why they liked first season and the answer will be the same, gore, blood sex and boobs. What season two is missing is the reason, and the build-up for the above. Like 6 roman soldiers show up at the gate of the villa Spartacus and Co. 30 seconds later blood and gore. In season one we would have a proper buildup to why 6 soldiers are walking around in the middle of the night, how did they end up at that particular villa`s gate, a little suspense on how will the fight end (yeah i know Spartacus is a historical figure, but the way whole season 1 went you were expecting him to die in every fight) ++ bonus feature++ of season one was that at LEAST one character that you liked, or hated in some measure both -- DIED YES, that was what made season one good. Every episode, someone you HATED OR LOVED in the series died. Blood, sex and whatever were just spices. Now lets take the Ilythia's whatever the slave is doing down there scene. A brief one on one with Lucretia getting handled by Naevia in first season scene. One is a free softcore porn scene in your favorite series, the other a a stumble-upon scene of two "evil" characters that share same believes, same problems, same hopes, and the joy of sex. With some manual start-up help. YOU ARE ALL A BUNCH OF PANSIES too afraid to admit that you liked the plotting and the gossips going back and forth like in a south american soap movie. You are hiding your manhood behind gore and blood and uncensored sex claims. You are all to afraid to admit that the new season is dull. There, I said it: this new season is HORRIBLE, so horrible that I only had to see two episodes to make up my mind about never watching a new episode again. | ||

The "plotting and scheming" you talked about in season 1 was at least 5 episodes in. Season 1 started off EXACTLY like season 2 did, with a lot of gore and linear storyline to set the context of the series. So how about you wait until they release more than 1 episode to come to that conclusion? Thanks ![]() | ||

(Oenomaus, the white face painted guy, and the younger kid) It was a retelling of Oenomaus's past into his current situation in the pits. For me, Ep 1 started a bit shaky and I was worried if the show would have as strong a plot and characters as the previous shows in this series. Ep 2, however, blew me out of the water with Oenomaus's story, the slave army's progression as well as the storyline unveiling in Batiatus's house. | ||
