Spartacus - Blood and Sand (1 Viewer)

I thought Episode 2 was better than 1 also. I might watch episode 3.
 
Like watching a bloody video game.
No historical accuracy, weak acting and tired plots.
Rome was much better...
If I wanted this much violence and poor acting I would watch more news!
 
I caught episode one, this series is a must miss. There will only be one Sparticus, Kirk Douglas, nuff said.:)
 
Things really picked with the last couple episodes. "Shadow Games" was my favorite so far. This is clearly not a show for history buffs, but oddly it does convey a sense of violence and decadence of the era that you don't find in most mainstream efforts.
 
Heaven help me, I am beginning to enjoy this show. Initially thought it was crap but it is growing on me.:eek: -- lancer
 
Episode #9 ("The Wh*re") for this weekend is a real humdinger. Just watched it On Demand.
 
I wish modern man (and women) was built like our ancient forefathers.:D:eek::rolleyes:

This series is what I call a soap-opera with attitude. The characters are sure an unpleasant group of "people". Makes me glad Rome fell, but it sure is entertaining. What the heck do these people do for relaxation, eat their children? The gladiators are the nice guys in this show. -- lancer
 
I heard that season 2 is postponed due to the fact that the actor that plays Spartacus has cancer.

That's too bad. The show really picked up steam with the last few episodes.
 
Am I the only one enjoying this show? Just watched episode 11. Have liked most all of them except the first one.
 
Once my subscription to Netflix began...

I cancelled all my premium channels...

everything but HBO...

Showtime...Starz...Cinemax...Encore...etc...

saving about $25.00 a month...

or $300.00 a year...

enough to pay for Netflix easily...

with plenty left over...

I watched the first two episodes on starz.com.

but they have stopped showing them for free...

I endorsed it from the beginning...

I really liked it...

I guess I'll order the years worth when Netflix gets it next year...
 
Mike,
When you had Starz didn't you have on Demand.It's free on that.

I cancelled my Starz some 9 months ago...Netflix's 3 DVD rotation gives me all the movies I can handle......but never had "On Demand"...

I am a little confused, I joined netflix a month ago (just got One at a time option, I get two movies each week, One on Monday and a second one On a thursday or Friday), But on top of that. I also got the Instant/ Streaming, whenever I go into the netflix website. and they have Spartacus (there is a delay of a day, from the Friday Broadcast). Doesn"t everyone get this??

I have watched them all. But, jeez, they sure aren't very nice people, are they? If this sries has any bit of reality in it, living in Roman times must have been akin to swimming in shark infested waters on a daily basis. -- Al

Spartan....you're not confused...instead it's me who is...surprised...

I just looked up Spartacus on Netflix and there are 11 episodes ready for "watch now" viewing...

I did not know Netflix was offering these for me to watch...

Of course I can't order the hard copy DVD in the mail yet...

but I can watch them on my computer or television now...

uninterrupted and at my leisure...

stop, rewind, pause, etc...

very very very cool...thanks so much for taking the time to post this info...

you just made my day...

so...

since I have only seen 1-2 off the Starz website...

I got 9 episodes ready to watch for free now...
