I have no problem with Sura. Yes, the audience never really gets to know her, so we never really understand on a deeper level why Spartacus was so smitten with her. BUT I think the audience is supposed to understand that for most people there exists that one person who is loved above all others, who makes life worth living, and who you would be entirely lost without. We're just supposed to enter into the show with the assumption that this is the type of bond that Spartacus and Sura have.

I always had a hard time relating to the character change that Spartacus undergoes... switching from SuraSuraSura mode to being able to start any kind of relationship (whether physical or whatever) with Mira or Laeta. I think if my One Person was gone, that part of me would just shrivel up and die forever. But then that's just me.

Maybe I would have bought the transformation a bit more if it hadn't occurred at that pivotal moment between two actors. I'm sure it would have read much more seamlessly if by some glorious miracle we'd had Andy Whitfield for all three seasons.

I think the show definitely tried to point out that Spartacus wasn't really in love with Mira, though. She certainly seemed to be with him though, and while I don't doubt he cared for Mira he definitely didn't love her, at least not to the same degree as Sura. And considering the amount of weight that Spartacus was under, I don't think I'd blame him for seeking comfort where he could, though he did lead Mira on :/
