Game of Thrones: The North Remembers, Episode 1 Preview; New Characters of Season 2
If there’s one thing we learned from the first season of HBO’s Game of Thrones is that the quest for power is dangerous and unforgiving. A simple error in judgement, strategy, or character flaw such as gluttony, impatience, arrogance, pride, or even nobility can be fatal. So with the passing of King Robert Baratheon, Viserys Targaryen, Khal Drogo, Lord Eddard Stark and many more into the afterlife we welcome and introduce new characters of Season 2. Know your enemies, know yourself, know you have no allies or die with your head upon a spike! Minor Spoilers ahead:
Review: Spartacus Vengeance: “Monsters”, Season 2 Episode 9
Glaber discovers the location of the rebel camp in the latest episode of Spartacus Vengeance!
All That Remains
In Season Two, Spartacus, played by actor Liam McIntyre, hasn’t had the emotional resonance of the first season when he tragically lost his wife, killed his best friend Varro as commanded and fought each day for his survival. Spartacus’ journey this season of becoming a leader of the rebellion that could possibly bring down the Roman Empire has progressed slower than expected. Although the rebels have freed Naevia from the mines, rescued Crixus and Oenomaus and burnt down the arena in Capua there hasn’t been much in a way of a strategic plan of action other than recruiting German slaves to their cause. On the other hand, Spartacus’ philosophical and moral beliefs have been well-defined this season but some of his actions are questionable. His belief that every life has its worth is underscored by the fact that hundreds of people died in the destruction of the arena although one could argue that the citizens of Capua who cheered for the execution of rebels Crixus and Oenomaus are not innocent bystanders.
