Sorry the thread is a little late for those in the East who wanted to chat about it.

Well, that was interesting face-off that Spartacus had with Ser Gregor Clegane.

Another good episode.

Nice to see Gannicus get his Rudis back.

Nice to see Spartacus get Argon's people on his side. Oenomaus was kicking some butt too.

Even the gore of seeing a man's face cut off worked. It was shocking, but not overly gory. Kind of like the opening scene to Cube. It felt necessary.

Ashur continues to be as strong in his own way as his brothers in theirs.

It's hard to believe Lucretia is playing along with Ashur. What defilement. Violated by her former slave. It didn't make sense to me that she'd confide her plan to Ilithyia.

Heck of a way for Gannicus to give his decision.

One of the more shocking kills yet. Nice and gruesome too.

Sedelius: "Spill Roman blood? The cock hardens at the thought"

Wow, that scene with Spartacus slicing off Sedelius' face gives new meaning to the word facial. It was indeed shocking, but I think it worked for the context of that scene to help Spartacus control Agron's people.

I loved the last scene where Gannicus made his "decision"

It was great to see Oenomaus back on his feet and of sound mind again. He was kicking some ass in this episode.

Until he decided it was time to part with it again.

I'm actually liking the Gannicus character more than Spartacus.

Great episode.

The face slicing was in the final trailer, so I can't say I was shocked by it. Still an awesome kill though.
