The re-airing — dubbed “The Spartacus Saga: Uncut” — will deliver multiple episodes every week, with bonus footage that was previously available only on the series’ Blu-ray discs.

In addition, Liam McIntyre — who inherited the title role from original series star Andy Whitfield after the latter bowed out due to health issues — will host each night.
