What do you get when you take the action of 300, setting and story of Gladiator and then mix in drama that rivals The Sopranos??

This show.

It's on Starz and Netflix(streaming too!) My favorite series since The Sopranos and Band of Brothers.

(not for the kiddies- gratuitous sex and violence throughout this one)

Really liked the show. It will be intersting to see what happens next when it returns. It is nice to have Xena full frontal checked off of the list.

I thought it was going to be completely retarded... but I'm a sucker for the gratuitousness. The story started getting established by about the 3rd or 4th Episode and it's got some pretty good twists in it.

They ran with, but didn't really embellish history too much either. It isn't as fantastical as 300 is.

Word is the 2nd season is suspended indefinitely due to health problems with the lead actor(forgot his name). There are talks of a prequel instead.

I'm pissed. This show rocks.

Just got into watching this show and I absolutely love it. My wife loves it as well, which never happens(might have something to do with the gladiators, but I dont care). Season 2 is coming up January 22 :)

Not sure how I feel about it being a prequel, although I understand it given the circumstances. I really wanted to see what would happen once the gladiators were all free. But, I will still be tuning in religiously to the new season :rock:

yeah i watched the whole season about a week ago on netflix. awesome show. i hated to hear the lead actor got cancer. gonna be tough to find someone to pull off the part he played as good as he did.

i really wanted to see more of her as well.

Watched the new episode last night. Was afraid I wouldn't be able to get into it as much due to it being a prequel, but the first episode was pretty awesome. Lots of sex and some sick fighting scenes. Hopefully a good season.

Gods of the Arena is off and running. It's interesting to see where the characters started.

Also, Andy Whitfield (the actor who played Spartacus) has been replaced because of his battle with cancer. Not sure how I'll feel about the show with a different actor in the role....

I really like this series. Started it when I was sick and finished all the episodes on netflix. Of course the wife walked in during one "adult" scene and asked what the heck I was watching

Xena should have done this years ago though :naughty:

:lol: For a show that was half softcore porno/half action-adventure, the storyline wasn't that bad.

some episodes were a wash but the last two were really good. Hope to see more after the the second series on what happens next.
