If the goal of this post was to get at least one person obsessed with the notion of getting into Spartacus then you have been extremely successful!!! Congratulations!! We don’t have it on Netflix where I live so lets do a viewing party next time we are all in NZ
Spartacus was soooo good, I love it so much and I don't even particularly watch dramas let alone ones with blood and rape??? Honestly I feel like it's never been given its due, particularly in NZ despite the strong Kiwi connection and the fact it employed thousands of film & TV workers for four years? In an alternate universe we could have had Lucy Lawless statues at Auckland Airport...
Also my Dad is friends with the special effects supervisor and she said a lot of the work was making the men look musclier; apparently some of the gladiator's legs and chests were not sufficiently swole for producers.
Also: For anyone whose interest has been piqued by this INCREDIBLE review, all four seasons are on NZ Netflix. Also THE FIRST THREE EPISODES ARE BAD, BUT KEEP WATCHING.
Clearly, NZ film and TV doesn't count unless Tourism New Zealand thinks they can slap it on a billboard...and a gory, raunchy show like Spartacus has no hope!
(remember that one genius on twitter saying that Tourism NZ must be SO MAD that Taika Waititi's Oscar winning hit film prominently and inescapably featured Nazi iconography and couldn't be used for advertising, friggin chef's kiss)

Imagine if we had a Lucy Lawless statue at the airport!!!! What the fuck, we were robbed!!!!
This article was recommended to me by Julia after I boldly proffered, at a party, "hey you know what's great? Spartacus."
