In case you're wondering why the cultural appropriation and deterioration of Rome is being depicted in this horrible series, 4 out of the 5 producers and 2 out of the 3 directors are jewish.
Fantastic start to the series! Exciting fight scenes, interesting and complex relationships being set up! Looks great too. Can’t wait for the rest of the episodes to drop.
I can only conclude some of the previous reviews were for something completely different to what I watched myself. These first two episodes were a great time (the trick may be allowing yourself to enjoy things, perhaps without regarding everything through an 'anti-woke' lens). I possess not a moment's hesitation in saying that if you enjoyed the original series, you'll very much enjoy this. Strong performances, thoughtful writing and sharp fight choreography, as all featured before, along with enough humour, blood and sex to sate the senses. A most welcome return. Very much looking forward to seeing where this goes and if Starz have any sense they'll keep it around for a good long while.
This show embodies everything wrong with "modern" television. When I first saw the trailer for this, I thought surely this is some kind of comedy/parody about the real show Spartacus, mocking the absurdity & silliness of social propaganda programing but no, its just another in a very very long list of recent DEI enforced failures.
I watched this initally believing this was a comedy. While hilariously absurd, I soon realized this was actually made with the intent that it be taken seriously.
