Yeah, Blood and Sand and Gods of the Arena are definitely the best seasons, I think. The intrigue and machinations and of course the Batiatus couple were never quite matched in subsequent seasons.

As for the finale, they said they were gonna make us cry, but I was pretty dry eyed even as all the heroes were dying. Not that it wasn't sad, I'm just saying.

Spoiler:

Spoiler: Then we cut to the shot of Spartacus' burial mound at the end, and I just fucking burst. Wept all the way through the credits, which only enhanced it with all the old characters appearing, and that one last shot of Andy. Not ashamed to admit. I guess it just suddenly hit that it was all over. Oh, and that scene of Gannicus on the cross with Oenomaus and the crowd appearing before his death, that was another choke-up moment. And during Spartacus' final moments, I could have sworn Liam scarily resembled Andy. It was damn touching.
