Spartacus has really gotten good.

I stuck through this show, even with it's first two absolutely horrible episodes and it has really paid off! Less blood and gore and more really good story telling. Each and every week gets better, it's a shame but I believe the first two episodes probably lost it 60% of the orginal viewership.

I have then all on my EHD ... sorta waiting to see what y'all say about it before I either watch it or deep-six it.

It's definitely worth watching!

It's up'd the sex scenes too. ;)

Actually, viewership has been creeping up since the premiere:

I know the numbers don’t seem like much, but for Starz, these are a pretty big deal. It might have outdone Caprica on Friday (still haven’t seen those numbers) — it’s better than Caprica’s viewer totals from last week, and Starz is available in about 22 million homes versus Syfy’s 96+ million homes.

Glad I have them all on EHD. I feel a marathon in the making! :D
