I can't say I'd heard of it but after reading this in Metro:

Spartacus 'too rude for British TV'
Spartacus: Blood and Sand features graphic sex scenes, full-frontal nudity, explicit orgies....


and the fact that I can finally get to see Lucy Lawless in the noddy, it won't be long before I can offer some critique on the subject.

I just watched episode 1 of this. It was mostly awful. The dialogue is horrendous, as was most of the acting. On the plus side, there was plenty of female nudity on show, I lost count of the number of sex scenes, 3 or 4 I think, and the fight scenes were okay.
The worst thing about it however is the fake cgi blood effects. Every time a wound is inflicted it is shown in slow motion and unfortunately this highlights how bad the blood effects are.

4/10 (one for each nude lady)  :D

Nudity in film is just not the same without a good narrative and some quality thespians.

That's 'thespians' I said..

I'm not watching it unless I find out there's lots of equal amounts of male nudity.

I believe episode two has plenty of full frontal male nudity.

and the fact that I can finally get to see Lucy Lawless in the noddy, it won't be long before I can offer some critique on the subject.

I think she was the only woman in that first episode who kept her clothes ON!  :(
