Series talk: Spartacus

Liv and I are going to Comic Con Amsterdam! We are looking forward to it SO MUCH and of course working very hard on our preparations! I have started to watch the series Spartacus last week, because we will see Manu Bennett (Crixus in Spartacus) at Comic Con Amsterdam! This series is about a gladiator named Spartacus. We follow him and everyone him in the arena. 

There are some great actors playing in Spartacus. So I'm definitely not just watching for Manu Bennett. I was happily surprised to see a big role for Lucy Lawless (as Lucretia). Most people will still know her for Xena. She's awesome in Spartacus as well! I would love to meet her at a on one day. 

But that's not the only familiar face I saw. Of course I already know Manu Bennet for example for Arrow. But I was also very happy to see Craig Parker (who I know as Narcisse from Reign), Katrina Law (She also plays in Arrow) and John Hannah. 

But I was also very impressed by a lot of actors/ actresses that I didn't know (so well) yet before. Of course Andy Whitfield was amazing as Spartacus! And I really liked Peter Mensah as well. o, all together I can say: i love the cast of Spartacus! 

I really love Spartacus! I had to get used to it for a few episodes. I am currently also watching the Big Bang Theory, so that's a completely different type of series! But now that I am watching ( I haven't watched all seasons yet) I can't stop. I binge Spartacus every free moment I have, so have seen as much as possible before Comic Con Amsterdam. I think the story is absolutely great and the characters and actors/ actresses are just as great! It's the combination of the fights, the intrigues, drama & politics. Every second of it is interesting!

I will definitely keep watching, even if I can't manage to see it all before the end of the week. ( I probably won't be able to, since I am still watching season 1 at the moment). The role of Manu Bannett as Crixus is awesome, so now I'm even more excited to see him in Amsterdam!  

There were 4 seasons: 

• Blood and Sand
• Gods of the Arena (prequel mini series) 
• Vengeance
• War of the Damned
