As a fellow ROME fan, I watched the pilot of Sparty Blood & Sand also.
IMHO,
it's more 300 than ROME, very little plot and more violence and slow motion gore.
Theres no Politics where as ROME had the politics of the Caesar vs The Senate and in domestic it was portrayed brilliantly by the conflict of Attia and Servilia.
Sparticus has a limited plot , he is going to be Crucified at teh end of series sheven, eventually, but ROME had a Grand canvas that, unfortunately, the budget did not allow.

The makers of this show want to make this show into a spectacle, just like the Ancient Games!
