roadjet Champion Author Baton Rouge Posts:15,473 Points:2,091,675 Joined:Jul 2007	Message Posted: Jan 12, 2012 12:08:05 PM Ignore roadjet Report Abuse I have it set up on my DVR. It was awful when I found out Whitfield died. The previews for this season seems to pick up after the first ended, not years before the first like Gods of the Arena mini series.

DRIVESFAST Champion Author San Bernardino Posts:17,770 Points:3,304,775 Joined:Mar 2004	Message Posted: Jan 13, 2011 4:43:52 PM Ignore DRIVESFAST Report Abuse Key point from the producers of the series. Despite the initial uncertainty over whether Whitfield would return or not, series producers say the Season 2 storyline they had planned will not change. So the order of what we will see is Season 1 (already aired), this Prequel coming up, then Season 2. I have already seen promos on Starz channel and it looks good. Season pass is set up and it returns next Friday, the 21st at 10PM. [Edited by: DRIVESFAST at 1/13/2011 5:46:25 PM EST]

DRIVESFAST Champion Author San Bernardino Posts:17,770 Points:3,304,775 Joined:Mar 2004	Message Posted: Jan 13, 2011 5:21:44 AM Ignore DRIVESFAST Report Abuse The reason they are going for the prequel is that the lead actor is fighting cancer. The other reason is to keep us interested in the series.
