They are about to start filming (or at least looking for extras) the second season in NZ, so I guess if you don’t like it then that sucks for you.
The show hasn’t even screened it’s first episode over here yet, but apparently the main actress was super-hot and super up-herself.
One of the guys I work with and some others from the gym have been cast as extras. Sounds like the money is good, but the agents and the travelling costs f-u-in-the-a…[/quote]
Do you think they aired it in Austria?
Just download the episodes from a torrent site, where is the problem?
Anyhow, it is not all tits and violence. I like it for the same reasons I liked Rome, they show a culture with completely different mores and customs without being in any way preachy about it.
F.E one of the gladiators is gay and has a little toy boy and nobody even mentions it. They do not really show nudity for nudities sake, most of the time it is far from being sexual, they are just people with their clothes off that have not really been indoctrinated with 2000 years of Christian puritanism.
If someone only sees tits and blood in this series that is not the fault of this series.
edit: Plus, there are of course some spectacular tits and so much gore that that alone would make it somewhat entertaining.

Right on all counts. Im eight episodes in and the character develop ment has been great and the battle between Spartacus, Crixus and Theocules was one of the best fights I’ve seen.
If you have Netflix you can stream this show right to your computer, PS3 or 360.
