R.I.P. Andy, you will be greatly missed! I will continue watching Spartacus in your memory.

I just read this like 10 minutes. I've never been more shocked about someone's death. I mean I know he had cancer but everyone just seemed so certain that he'd recover and return to Spartacus. I think his age shocks me the most. Too young and and too respectable to lose. RIP Andy. We miss you.

RIP Mr. Whitfield.

D: Damn! R.I.P. :/

RIP good sir. You entertained mightily for the season of Spartacus that we did get from you.

Sad to hear he died. We always hope people will beat cancer, and we believe in them, so it comes as a shock when they don't. We experienced this last month with the death of Jack Layton, whom no one knew was as sick as he was. I wouldn't be surprised if we're having this conversation about Steve Jobs very soon (though we're all pulling for him).

@shuabert yeah hopefully steve will pull threw

Cancer is insidious. Unfortunately the medical community would have us believe that most cancer is beatable when in truth cancer always has the last word. Each case is unique and like Josh said, we always hope it's beatable, but sometimes it's just not. It's sad to have lost someone that was making it because it shows us that everyone is vulnerable.

@movientvfan -- Nicely said, sir.

R.I.P. :(

God bless his soul. At least, he is not suffering now.
