The "slave girl" that slept on his floor made her debut in that episode, so don't get your hopes up for her in older episodes.

The series just started, but it's amazing how different Spartacus' stature is in the episode you just watched, compared to where he was in episode one. You'll enjoy the irony of the "soft porn" scene more when you go back and see the relationship the two had leading up to that point.

Holy crap, the last episode was powerful.  I have not been so moved by a fictional tradgedy since I was 12 and I thought Gandolf had died in the Mines of Moria.  The intensity of the Sparticus character is at the level of William Munny when he finds out that Little Bill killed Ned and put him on display in front of Greeley's Bar (Sp?) -- except that they have had ten hours to develop the plot instead of one.

This coin declares Caesar is "Dictator for Life." He did serve as Dictator for the remainder of his life, but his life would end only a few weeks after this issue. For Caesar to put his image on coins and essentially declare himself king was too much for Brutus and his republican allies.

The series is on hold though because the star Andy Whitfield has been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and is scheduled to begin treatment immediately. That news came out 2 weeks ago.

"In June 2010 it was announced that Whitfield completely finished with his treatment, has a clean bill of health and is expected to be back on the set of Spartacus: Blood and Sand by October."

Okay I just finished watching the episodes I had stored on my DVR.

Thanks to Katrina Law I am a fan and look forward to season 2. With this much sex and violence how one not like it?

I haven't watched some of the more recent horror movies to come out lately but I have to say I don't think I have EVER seen anything as graphic as this series has been. The battles are brutal!

Overall though it's just good! Two thumbs up! Can't wait for season two!

There is a prequel coming out this Fall, which I think they put into production when they found out Whitfield had cancer.  I imagine very few of the characters survive.

Whitfield will only have a cameo in that series.

It's supposed to feature Crazy Lila from Dexter (she was Dexter's nut job addiction sponsor). I liked here. Should be a sweet filler before season 2 kicks in. Lucy Lawless and her husband will be in the series also.

Spartacus: Gods of the Arena is the series name. It will only be 6 episodes, and comes out in January.
