“Spartacus: Blood and Sand” is the upcoming series from Starz that promises to make the most of its safe-from-censors status on premium cable. Basically, it looks exactly like Gladiator if Gladiator were filmed exactly like 300 (watch the trailer after the jump). In short: both awesome and unoriginal.
“Spartacus” is also making waves because it promises plenty of nudity, both male and female. Lucy Lawless has already admitted that she’ll go topless — about a dozen years too late for those of us who masturbated to syndicated TV in the ’90s. And as for the male nudity, welllllllll…
“Some guys aren’t as well-endowed as other guys,” explained executive producer Steven DeKnight. “We had to create ‘the Kirk Douglas,’ so it was aptly named. It was a prosthetic the guys could wear to feel more comfortable.” [...]
DeKnight then explained actors will actually have to share the prosthetic. Which means viewers might end up seeing the same exaggerated member on more than one character. [via THR, emphasis added]
I don’t think I’d want to wear a prosthetic cock or cock extension or whatever it is. Especially after it’s been on other wangs. No, if I had to go fully nude on TV, I’d rather people see me as I am, warts and all. Uh, so to speak.



Xena! Nude! Take that, Wretch Dude and Slobber Girl!

They only decided to film this after surveying the Boogie Nights prop department.
Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?
I just call them ‘pleasure bumps’. You know, for the ladies…
*calls DirecTV. orders Starz*
Why would you care if some other dude tried on a penis extender before you did? You didnt care that about 60 different guys tried on your girlfriend’s vagina before you got to it.
Burn.
I just watched the trailer and this show could be called “Entourage: BC”
Vodka – while your at it check out party down. starz is putting up some respectable original programming ala AMC. Now if only I could make my tv stop receiving the broadcast networks…
