At first I thought that it might be difficult to write about Spartacus: Gods of the Arena without revealing major spoilers to the Spartacus: Blood & Sand series that Gods is a prequel to. But then the first episode of Gods aired and, lo and behold, the ending scene of the first series is the opening scene of the prequel.

Now in my opinion that wasn't a very smart thing to do. After all, it basically assumes that there will be no newcomers to the series, right? I mean what if you were new to the series, you watched the prequel and were drawn into Blood & Sand only to now know the fate of the main characters of Blood and Sand that took 13 episodes to reveal with one of the best and most memorable season finales that I've ever seen?!?

I don't know, but I think that's kinda sucky.

I think we all approached this prequel, Spartacus: Gods of the Arena, with great trepidation after watching Blood and Sand. I can tell you GOTA does not disappoint. Episode 1 blasts out of the starting gate with over-the-top action and does not let up until the end credits of episode 6. The mini series answers many questions posed in B&S: What happened to Doctore's wife; how did Battiatus and Solonius come to be at odds with one another; what happened between Crixus and Ashur resulting in Ashur's injury; how did Crixis become Champion of Capua and Lucretia's lover? These questions (and others) are all answered while the writers continue to ramp up the intrigue, action and sex. Outstanding performances by Lawless, Hannah, Murray and Tarabay.

Buy this. You won't be disappointed.
