I feel like this is a show that you definitely need to be in the mood to watch. It is really, really good, though. I won't spoil it for you, but Ilythia is deliciously cunning :)

I haven't watched anything beyond that first episode either. This is a show I have to pay careful attention to so it always is at the bottom of the DVR pile.

But I must say I do enjoy the porn aspect. I was telling the folks at work about the whore house scene and found myself getting too animated and too loud. I had to tone it down a bit.

I'm happy to hear it's reaching stride. Makes me motivated to watch - but I have four episodes of Once Upon a Time to get thru first. Not to mention several episodes of Revenge. There just isn't enough time in the day to watch all the TV I wanna watch. How sad 'eh?

haha. While not at the level of the whorehouse, there are lots of naked ppl doing sexually explicit things at an upcoming party. Is Once Upon a Time good? I want to break away from my unending love of trashy reality tv and get into some real shows, but Burn Notice and Spartacus are the only two shows that are must-see-tv for me.

Once Upon a Time is fabulous. As is Revenge.

Ok I'm damn near caught up but I still can't figure out who is who among the slaves.

I understand the angle Lucy Lawless is working pretending to be a profit or whatever.

I'm at the episode where they burn down the arena.

Crixus -which one is he? Is he the liberated one w/ the long hair who slept w/ the Black guys wife? Or is he the one w/ the short hair that got separated from the group on the mines and ultimately returned to the House of Batiatus?

It took me awhile to warm up to the new Spartacus.

Oleander - the party you refereed to was indeed off the hook.

For me the most interesting story line is not the slave revolt (too confusing) but the Lucy Lawless and the prego women and Glabor (that's the prego women's hubby right?)

Nevermind - I watched the next episode and realized who was who. Crixus is the short haired guy.

The long haired slave reminds me of Colin Farrell. Still not sure what his name is.

Gannicus! He is quite hot, no? I love this show because there is so much prettiness EVERYWHERE. The relationship b/w LL and Ilythia is amazing - there are so many nuances to it. I couldn't survive a day in ancient Rome as a member of the aristocracy or the elite - they are so damned deceitful and cutthroat.

Also, I want to like Mira - I think that's the name of Spartacus' new gf?? - but I just can't. Don't know why, but I'm just not into her.

If anyone saw Fri's epi, please let me know how it ends!!! I don't have Starz, so I watch it online. The vid I was watching cut off right when the horn sounded and none of the other vids will load for me right now. sigh.

Shopper - did you see the finale? Momo - how are you doing with the season? Have you still not watched it? I just watched last week's epi as well as Friday night's finale. I...I can't even..

I forgot about this thread - is the finale episode called "wrath of gods?" I couldn't figure out if I missed episodes or what b/c my DVR has that as the last new episode - but doesn't indicate it's a finale.

I have four episodes to watch, I was hoping I haven't missed an episode.

Did you start watching Magic City?

Yup - the finale is Wrath of Gods. Let me know what you think about it. Haven't started watching Magic City yet, but it's on my list. Do you like it?
