Having started off loosely, with several loose threads at the beginning of the season; the finale is a multi-sided mirror to the sheer brilliance that is Spartacus.
This is one episode that summarizes several finales rolled into one. Having completed a few series such as House MD, Lost and 24 among others had the feeling most of them are forced after the shows have been milked dry. But not this one.
This one traverses history as is; with a few minor alterations armed with cinematic/TV-show-astic license. But the sheer nonchalance of bringing together everything, including the red serpent, that bodes the first victory of Spartacus is but, a gentle nod to the journey we have had for the last four years.
Liam McIntyre, take a bow; stepping into Andy's shoes was no joke. But let us not mar his acting and emoting with any form of comparison. The creator along with the other actors and crew, have stepped it up for future shows.
A great and a fitting finale. And do catch the credits; the music and the final scene is a shot to the arm.
I am still reeling from it.
