    I always wondered how this series is being apreciated in the US, because there are so many tits and cocks displayed. I mean you guys definiteley have no problem with gore(as opposed to our controlling organs in germany) but your media freaks out abouts someones nipples being shown?

    pause a 0.02

    the start of that is Spartacus giving a speech, and you can see Agron standing in bandages, behind Spartacus

    Grey, that is only on network(over the air television) that anyone cares. Sex and nudity is just as prevalent on premium channels in the U.S. as it is in any other country. Culturally Americans are not tolerant of public nudity such as nipples or 'swear words' on billboards or in places that children can access without making an effort. However, America spends billions on pornography and more adult entertainment. Individuals are not as prudish as the public image we prefer to present if that makes any sense.

    This level of tolerance varies from place to place in America and there are places in the US where prostitution is legal just as there are places in the US where swearing in public can get you fined. It is a big place with many very different people.

    Due to history being well.. history... we all know how it's going to end. Every time there is a dramatic battle, and as it gets nearer and nearer to the last episode I've been progressively white knuckling my way through. x_X

    I've been watching Rome while Spartacus is taking a two week break. So sad this is the last season : /

    I really like the Spartacus show and have been watching since season 1. It was so weird when Tiberius raped Caesar.

    Fucking hell. Litterally shed a tear when crixus died. He was my favourite character in seasons 2 and 3, because i dont really like the new actor of spartacus.

    That's not how the actor who plays him sees the story at all. There's an interview out there (on AfterElton) where he gives his view on the 'breakup'

    I just downloaded it from piratebay. It had like 28k seeders, so it just came out.

    E: Talking about the 8th episode.

    While sadly Spartacus obviously won't be back, it looks like there will be a continuation (Ceaser) since the show is quite popular. At least there have been multiple tweets to this effect.

    Could not of put it better myself. Made me think of Doomhammer from Warcraft with the whole spear thing.

    Anyone else also catch how Spartacus comes in just in time to prevent Crixus from getting speared from behind at the beginning of the episode. Yet because he's not there at the end, Crixus has no one watching his back and he gets speared. Wonder if they did that purposely?

    As to Agron, I understand his POV. He wants Nasir to live a happy life, and sees that he has that chance with Cestus. I think he also believes he owes it to his brother to die in battle to Romans and does not want to burden Nasir with that.

    I was actually just thinking that earlier today, I hope they do that. Ceaser's character is so great, I'd love to see some of his campaigns.

    I love how they are bringing down Crassus and showing when he doesn't get exactly what he wants despite all his meticulous planning, he gets a 'fuck you I'll just crush you beneath me' attitude. You can expect that type a personalty from someone who amassed a good chunk of the wealth of an entire empire and always gets what he wants. He was possibly one the richest, and therefore greediest men in history. Even historians mention his immense greed often.

    The shows doing a good job of showing how all his plans unravel during that conflict and the situation ends up being very different then he wanted it to be. He loses his military glory to Pompey and Spartacus being elusive, which was the whole goal of his involvement and was supposed to elevate him in the senate. Now he's going to have to cut a deal with Caesar and Pompey because the senate is annoyed as fuck with him. We all know where that leads.

    You can see how this weakness is going to be the end of him one day as well eg)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Carrhae

    I knew Crixus was gonna die, since they somewhat follow how it went down for real 2000 years ago, but it still makes me a very sad panda when my fav character for 3 seasons get killed :'(

    And so abruptly. And they'd been sissifying him hardcore with how Navea basically has had him curled around her fingers. His death should have been more glorious. Like him shanking that horny piece of shit Tiberius before he went.

    And they even have a great "script" full of violence written by the real Ceasar himself. Commentarii_de_Bello_Gallico

    Sissifying Crixus? Are you joking? He's the one all season that has been like "Let's go kill Romans!" and has been the one actually killing Romans the majority of the time. Saved Spartacus like three different occasions this season. Yet people think he's more sissy to Spartacus who has been "let's retreat" all season in nearly every situation. Why is Spartacus not sissy for doing what he thinks his wife would want and fighting for her, yet Crixus is one for doing the same thing? Crixus is acting exactly how Spartacus acted back in season 1 and 2 when he did not have his vengeance yet and was fueled by thoughts of his wife and freedom for all. Crixus used to be the one talking caution to Spartacus yet now the roles have reversed in the show.

    Would of been nice to see him shank Tiberius I agree but he also would have killed Ceasar if not for Tiberius' backstab so there is that.
