Anyone else been following this series?

Without a doubt one of the best shows I've ever watched. Up to episode six at the moment and it just keeps getting better.

If you like blood and guts, nudity, incest (come on I know you do too), foul language, bad ass sword fights and amazing scenery, this is for you.

Yep, bloody good series. If you're looking for something new to watch, can't recommend Game of Thrones enough.

Oh damn! I didn't realize it was out. Gives me something to do on a miserable Welly evening.

What's it like compared to Spartacus: Blood and Sand/ Gods of the Arena. Cause I enjoyed both very much. If it is in the similar category (blood, guts, violence, adult "interaction" and nudity) then might check it out

Haven't seen Spartacus but it does contain all of those essential ingredients.

FYI, it's a web-streamed copy not a HDTV rip

Yeah not bad, not as good as the TV rips but looks alright, of course I haven't slapped it up on the 46" screen at home yet, so it might piss me off yet!

Its 740X420 @ 862kbps (410MB) whereas the TV rips I've had are 624x352 @ 1334kbps (550MB)

If ya got a big screen, you really need HD rips. Anything else looks just horrible in comparison. Any HDTV episode rip should be at least 1.46GB, 1280x720.
