Spartacus

This is about the TV series, not the old Stanley Kubrick/Kirk Douglas action movie and after seeing the trailers for the past week or so on Bravo ( a satellite TV channel here in the UK) I was looking forward to this a little bit. It's done very much in the style of 300-no bad thing, because 300, despite of Gerard Butlers' overacting, looked great- and this seems to have a least a hint of watchability about it, a rare thing on TV lately. I'll update you on episode 2 next week.
