I would like to thank Syco and Fisk for introducing me to such a fantastic series. Enjoyed virtually every minute, was quite refreshing.

Plus, the way absolutely nothing is censored made certain aspects quite unpredictable. E.g. when pullo smashed that kids face into the wall repeatedly until he died, was totally unexpected and shocking and that arena fight has the most realistic gore i've seen this side of 'A history of violence'.

You obviously haven't watched all the episodes then. Caesars death was quite horrific and sorrowful in my opinion.

2007... That's a long time. Good thing we have SG and BSG in the meantime.

Just watched the first episode and I can say it's amazing right from the start, the boy playing the future emperor doesn an amazing job! Not to mention the awesome duo made by McKidd and Stevenson.

Also, watching the ending credits I realized this was filmed in Cinecittà! So Much Win

yeah season 2 was originally supposed to be 2 seasons, but they compacted it into 1, which makes the plot advance rather fast (rise and fall of Marc Anthony).

I loved this series, true Season 2 was weaker due to them rushing but still much better than most stuff they are/were airing

Nope, he had an "epithany" with some hallucinogenic drugs and has since been doing "scientific" "research" with school girls. Laughing

Don't we have a remake of I Claudious coming soon?

Same people involved with Rome apparently working on it?


I'm hoping it will be just as good as Rome....

yeah, it's easily one of the best tv shows ever made. And yeah, most of the details aren't historical accurate (heck, almost every character is made up (altered) to fit the tv format and still (or because of).

Oh and they use the "star wars" formula (which was copied from some chinese movie), i.e. folloing the 2 lowliest characters through all the episodes (replace r2d2 and c3po Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo) and it just works to perfection.

fuck, i wish they would make a show about every time of the history of rome like this lol.
