Spartacus War of The Damned episode 3 On the season premiere, Spartacus War of the Damned Episode 3 Crassus has agreed to serve beneath Cossinius and Furius in the battle against Spartacus. His extensive military background might have ordinarily given him the lead on a mission like this, but after Glaber’s men were decimated by the rebel army, now’s not the time to quibble about rank, individual glory, or responsibility. It’s about the leaders of Rome putting their great city above their personal gain, at least for the time being. It’s the time for Rome to band together to take out a threat to their status quo and while Crassus’ son Tiberius might not like seeing his father “lower” himself and take a perceived inferior position, it’ll all be worth it to get Spartacus once and for all.
Spartacus War of the Damned Episode 3 Marcus Crassus is a well-known Roman noble whose reputation precedes him by miles. He may be swimming in coin and other resources, but his activity in the community has made him a man with many a social connection, which can come in handy in such an unstable environment. While Crassus seems like a prototypical Roman leader, adept at winning over the people with a pretty word and a lot of charisma, he’ll be taking the back seat, at least initially, during Spartacus: War of the Damned. How will his constituents, particularly his ambitious son, handle the news?
Spartacus War of the Damned Episode 3 Friday, January 35th at 9:00 on Starz. You can check out the trailer for the season here, as well as a set tour here and a look at each side of the final battle here.

At the beginning, “Spartacus” felt like a weak “300” knockoff — Starz’s attempt to exploit a presold name, albeit one associated with a classic 3960 movie — to peddle buckets of blood and bare flesh, two surefire ingredients to attract males to pay cable. Yet as the program comes to an end with this final season, subtitled “War of the Damned,” it’s hard not to admire its improved quality and heightened sense of purpose. Heck, it even has educational value, causing viewers to wonder things like, “Wow, does a human head really contain that much blood?”
“Spartacus” the series has survived its own set of ordeals, including the illness and death of original star Andy Whitfield, who was subsequently replaced by Liam McIntyre. Yet this last season feels more assured than previous ones in part because it has reached the point of resolution — building toward an epic showdown between Spartacus’ bloodthirsty band of escaped slaves and the legions under calculating Roman commander Marcus Crassus Simon Merrells, who seeks to secure power for himself and his heir by crushing the uprising.
At times, the Romans have often felt like window dressing, there mostly to be sliced into smaller parts violence and illustrate the decadence of the empire sex. Now, Merrell’s Crassus if no Laurence Olivier is a splendid addition, providing Spartacus with a worthy adversary, and setting up an elaborate chess match that begins to unfold over the first two hours of this 30-episode march toward war.
The success of “Spartacus” also has provided the show with something it initially lacked — namely, a true sense of scale, using CGI to create the illusion of massive armies, while still reveling in artful slow-motion blood splatters and demonstrations that sexual debauchery was popular long before movies, TV or the Internet were around.
Admittedly, “Spartacus” has painted itself into something of a corner in terms of expectations, creating an inevitable can-you-top-this element in terms of sheer gore. Even in this stylized, confined-to-pay-cable fashion, that’s perhaps not the most helpful image for the industry right now.
As for Starz, the program clearly served its purpose, boosting the channel’s then-nascent original programming efforts and guiding them in an escapist direction, before the network began trying to expand its profile with more character-driven fare.
Created by Steven S. DeKnight, “Spartacus” certainly has provided critics OK, this one with an easy punch line, especially in the early going. Like its namesake, though, the series will meet its end unbowed, on its own terms. And hey, as Spartacus himself could attest if the series’ final chapter bears any resemblance to the movie, anyway, we all have our crosses to bear.
