Spartacus: Gods of the Arena

description

"Spartacus: Gods of the Arena" - different gladiator, same sex and violence. Starz' deliciously decadent"”salacious, violent, often flat-out brutal"”"Spartacus: Blood and Sand" recently went on extended hiatus, leaving its legions of loyal fans "jonesing" for their weekly doses of decapitation and bare breasts. The Spartacus team satisfied fans' craving with "Spartacus: Gods of the Arena," a six-episode prequel to the continuing saga of Batiatus and Associates. Starting with a flashback montage of "Blood and Sand's" greatest hits, more precisely Batiatus's life flashing before his eyes in the moment before his death, "Spartacus: Gods of the Arena" shows Batiatus's rise to prominence and power with the assistance and support of his all-pro gladiator Gannicus. Because these stories represent "a more ruthless time"¦where honor was just finding its way into the arena," the writers and producers feel free to elaborate and experiment with their already-established characters, and they feel similar artistic license with super-slow-motion gore and fun-fantasy sex. They clearly are perfecting their craft. One particularly insightful viewer concluded his review of "Spartacus: Gods of the Arena" with a sage observation: "I think that's one of the smart decisions putting it on a Friday night since it's an ideal end of the work week thing to watch."

The first season of this HBO-produced TV show is set in small town Treme three months after Hurricane Katrina has hit the New Orleans area. The leading characters in the TV series are musicians, bar-owners, chefs and Mardi Gras Indians and other odious characters, many of them playing themselves as a jazz trumpeter, singer and composer Kermit Ruffins who take part in the pilot episode and appears through all of the first season (he guests in second and third episode as well). As for Treme creators "“ you definitely know the names David Simon and James Yoshimura, who wrote a screenplay for another HBO TV show: Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets; Nina Kostroff Noble, who brought to you The Corner; Eric Overmyer, a talented writer and producer, who stands behind Law & Order, The Wire and New Amsterdam; Carolyn Strauss, an ex-President of HBO, who was responsible for success of The Sopranos, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Sex and the City. This professional team has delivered a buoyant and life-asserting television show about life and struggle of New Orleans residents trying to rebuild their homes, businesses, lives and relationships. These quite a serious, as per common sense things, are presented in very humorous light, making us to believe the everything will be OK with these nice Louisianan folks. The slogan of TV series is: " Hurricanes, Floods, Exile, Crime. Corruption. Betrayal. Greed. Neglect. Is That All You Got?" is colorfully reflects their life-affirming relation to reality, which is worthy of all respect taking to consideration all the circumstances they have been so unlucky to gone thru.

Saving Hope

2011
Drama
It seems like NBC decided not to give up with paranormal things in 2012. After the cancelation of Awake and realizing that Smash is not going to be a great hit, they decided to launch brand new supernatural-paranormal medical drama with far not first two-word gerund/noun title Saving Hope. But please, don't expect it to be a kind of chimera with mixed DNA of Saving Grace and Rising Hope. Not even close. To describe what Saving Hope is. Let's begin with the "complication" of the plot: two nice people are snuggling inside the wedding cab which is suddenly gets struck by the car. We see as the wedding couple acts absolutely professionally saving the life of the driver by using only medical equipment they have: a pair of common scissors and a tampon. This act of help reveals the newlyweds as the good doctors exactly that they are. The groom is Dr. Charles Harris (Michael Shanks) and the bride is Alex Reid (Erica Durance). However, the situation is getting worse after Alex realizes what a whack in the head Charles got during the accident. Shortly the traumatic brain injury sends Dr. Charles Harris to the hospital bed with the coma diagnosis instead of the honeymoon. As a side effect he receives a supernatural power to walk unseen and unheard between his former colleagues and patients. During his trips he immerses himself deep into the emotions of dying people and doctors trying to save them. He attempts to help both of them using his paranormal gift (which reminds us the CBS' Gifted Man). Charles also trying to get in touch with his ex-fiancee Alex, but all of these attempts fail frightening her almost to death. On the other hand Alex is trying to struggle for saving Charles' life, while he is in coma, but day after the day, she realizes the unfortunate futility of her attempts.
