    No one has seen this? Or do you just not like it?

    Seriously, check out the first episode. It's really different.

    LOL! No, not that sexually graphic. There are some amazingly beautiful women on there who leave nothing for the imagination.

    I did just find a website that has all of the episodes online to watch for free for anyone who doesn't have Starz.

    I've been watching it since the beginning. Very good show. Naked hotties and lots of gore. What else do you want?

    I've been watching it since the beginning, too. Watching the most recent two episodes right now, in fact.

    It is what TV shows should be like.

    Wow, the actor who plays Spartacus has cancer and the filming of season 2 has been suspended.

    Bummer.

    Tattle: 'Spartacus' series on hold; star is ailing

    By Howard Gensler
    Philadelphia Daily News

    Daily News Tattle Columnist

    THE POPULAR STARZ series "Spartacus: Blood and Sand," which is sort of like "Gladiator" with a naked "Zena, Warrior Princess," has halted production because star Andy Whitfield has been diagnosed with cancer.

    Whitfield plays the title role in the show. He was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and will begin treatment immediately, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

    "I'm receiving excellent care, and am feeling strong, positive and determined with an army of support behind me," Whitfield said.

    "Our thoughts and prayers are with Andy," said Chris Albrecht, president and chief executive of Starz. "His health, of course, is our primary concern. He has our complete support during this difficult time."

    Whitfield's cancer is described as "very treatable" and was detected in its early stages. The second season of "Spartacus" was scheduled to begin shooting in New Zealand.

    Great show, you can get caught up on Netflix streaming since they are all available on there now. Lucy Lawless is pretty hot in the show as well.

    Wow last night's episode was really good. I did not see that coming at all. That blond biatch is such the trouble maker. I knew she was going to do something after last week's mind (and body) f'ck but wow! Fucked up.

    I'm still surprised at how hot of a pair of ta-ta's Lucy Lawless has. For her age those are very nice.

    Sucks they won't have a next season.

    Not true, the latest is that while they don't know when the filming of season 2 will start because of the actor who plays Spartacus is fighting cancer they have begun work on a pre-quel to the Spartacus story line that would feature a different actor playing a younger Spartacus.

    OK, and Star Trek Deep Space Nine was the same show as the original Star Trek?

    But DS9 didn't have the same writers, producers and directors as the original ST.

    If the same people who brought us Spartacus B&S want to do a prequel instead of just shutting everything I think that's a good thing.

    BTW have you seen the LAME Spartacus Blood and Sand cartoon Starz is doing? I found it on Hulu. Now that fits your DS9 analogy.
