Spartacus: Gods Of The Arena

I think Gatticus (sp) will. I'm just guessing though.

Great ending. It wasn't the intrigue and soap opera shenanigans of the previous two weeks, but the show had only an hour to settle all accounts. I loved the creative way they got rid of Tullius (sp?) and the little creep. The best moment of the episode I guess had to be with the girl. I felt so bad for her.

The ending was a spectacle and a half. I wish I saw this on a huge TV not on my computer because that last Battle Royale had to be something to see. And I liked the ending to Gatticus' story. Now Spartacus is off for another year. I wish the show had been 12 episodes, it is the best show on TV and it isn't on nearly enough.

I just watched the finale and I'll come out and say it, I cried a little at some parts.

The ending of Diona story was ever so tragic, but I was so happy for Gannicus.

This is was a great series and I'm looking forward to the new episodes after the downfall of the House of Batiatus.

Yes, her story really resonated. I was reading one review where they they wrote that after Diona they are done with Batiatus. I just read an interview with the show's creator

I haven't been able to see the last episode yet. For some reason it isn't showing up on Netflix for me. Hopefully it will soon. I wonder if Starz regrets that this was only 6 episodes. It seems to be as well received as season 1. I really wish it had been 13 episodes and that Gaia had lived to the end.

this should work

[Juliajms]

Thank you, Q. That worked perfectly. Wow. That was a great ending. This has to be one of the few successful prequels in TV history. Usually they are a weak attempt, but this was just genius. I give the credit to John Hannah and Lucy Lawless, who played their parts to perfection. I've assumed that Batiutus died and Lucretia survived, but I wonder if there is any hope for him. The producers must see that that he's an amazing character. I would watch an entire show based just on Batiutus and Lucretia.

Me too, but I had the feeling she welcomed death. It was her only real way out. I felt really bad for her friend, too. Her name escapes me, but she had to be overwhelmed with guilt.

Would make sense historically.

Fantastic finale
