If i could trade places with anyone, Gannicus would be on my list.
"I am for wine and the embrace of questionable women"
As for the season finale, i hoped Oenomaus did get killed off, he had no place in the series anymore and was dragging on, he already passed the torch to Spartacus and his teachings and leadership although it was appreciated it was not needed.
Ilithyia/Lucretia's death surprised me to be honest, not so much the deaths but how it happened. We all knew Lucretia was back, yet it all seemed mysterious, is she really all sane? Why all of a sudden talk of gods, prophecy,etc? Most importantly, will she seek vengeance over Ilithyia, for the abandonment during the rebellion? Was the friendship ever real? payback is a b____
I was pulling for Ashur, yes i know he is scum and a snake, yet i feel he is just a victim of circumstance. He ultimately always wanted freedom, but more than that he wanted honor and royalty, even if it was not higher than the common man. He was the sidekick to both Glabar and Batiatus, he roamed through the villa as a freeman, yet he still wanted more; this was shown with his little treasure chest. Sucks, yet it was a lesson to be shown. Whether syrian, gaul, germanic or thracian, a slave is a slave no matter the race, unless he/she is roman.
Glabars death, like batiatus..you just didn't want to see him go, i don't know how they did it, but you felt for the guy. He was being ridiculed by his own circle of "peers", the senate looked at him as a joke, his wife is a notorious ###!$(much more than what was known in s1), his wife blatantly flirting and planning against him...and when you saw him kill Ilithyia's father i kind of cheered inside. However, once again we see the reoccurring theme, the ego, arrogance, and confidence the romans have, first with Batiatus and now with Glabar.
Spoiler-
We will see a young king this season... none other than Julius Caesar himself, i sure hope they play him like they did in Rome(HBO), the arrogance, wit and pretentious aura.
