I just now finished watching this and my god was it insane, just WOW, this was one hell of a finale, now I'm already excited for the prequel gods of the arena. quite honestly, I think spartacus is better than game of thrones, it has more of a fun vibe to it if you know what I'm saying, and plus, it's 300: the TV series, what more could you ask for? lol, I'm sure the prequel gods of the arena will be just as action filled, exciting, gore soaked, and thrilling as one would expect since it's a guy's show ;), here's how I'd rank my favorite episodes so far
1. the red serpent 2. the thing in the pit 3. kill them all
p.s. RIP Andy Whitfield, your performance as spartacus was great :-)
