It's never been really easy to find too many programs on TV and cable that both my wife and I could watch together. As much as I’d like to watch Desperate Housewives, Wipe-Out and the ample amount of reality TV garbage we tended to feed ourselves on a weekly basis, there was really nothing on that we both could watch that garnered even a modicum of excitement. That is until we discovered STARZ Entertainment's Spartacus: Blood and Sand almost two years ago. The team of Sam Raimi, Rob Tapert and creator Stephen S. Deknight exposed unsuspecting viewers to what may be the most graphically violent, sexually explicit and most importantly, exciting series of all time. Unfortunately, Spartacus himself, Andy Whitfield, fell ill with a case of non-Hodgkins Lymphoma; any chance of him reprising his role as Spartacus in the near future was low.
