It's overwrought and terrible. Like some fucking man-apes flunked Shakespeare 101 and decided, "Fuck it let's write a historical drama anyways. It's only fucking Starz..." Everybody uses the most shitty, fake-Latin derived bullshit with no possessives like "your" or "my." Here's a Spartacus drinking game for you, every time the word "a" could have fit into a sentence but isn't there because the writers are trying to sound all literary n' shit, take a drink. You will be dead before you see your first set of titties. Instead we get sentences like "This was but fucking test!?" (lol, butt-fucking) and "I would see words turned to action!" This whole fucking show is painful to listen to. An explosion of violence will go some distance in making the show watchable, and by all rights watching two people fuck while drenched in the blood of a recently murdered mistress would be the absolute highlight of a good series, but it does nothing in this show after I have to sit through a whole episode full of grade school play caliber political maneuvering on top of an already nonsensical premise (why the FUCK did it take an entire season for the Roman army to attack Spartacus' zero bedroom shack in the middle of fucking nowhere? This shit should have happened in episode fucking ONE.)
Fuck this show. I can't wait for it to be over along with TWD so I can be left with nothing but Mad Men, GoT and True Blood for the rest of my warm months.
