I love this show sooooooooo much.

My favorite show of all time.

Such an amazing plot, based on reality, violence & gore, sex, orgies, you name it.

Such an awesome show.

Anyone else watch this?

This is a great show!! I don't know what the deal is, but HBO has it down! I absolutely love this show along with, The Sopranos, The Wire, and Six Feet Under. All have top-notch writing and acting. I know, this one's different because of the factual history, but if you haven't checked out those other shows, you're missing out!
 
No...becuase I haven't had a chance yet. Because I want to.

But as you can see from my handle name and avatar....I'm a fan of all that was the great roman empire. Such a strong group of people who had honour.

Most definitely my friend.

Watching this show has given me new found respect for the Roman Empire.

The last few episodes of the 1st season are literally the best TV show episodes I have EVER watched.

That is coming from someone who has watched 100's of TV shows, I mean this show is just beyond words.

Did anyone see the episode with the guy who fought in the arena for the 13th and his boy jumped in for him?

The 13th!

So well acted, so well written, so realistic, just unbelievable.

I have Comcast On Demand, and I watched 7 hours of this show in a row last night, without stopping, it is that good.

It is better than the Sopranos, and I fucking LOVE the sopranos.

Hell it is better than Weeds, and is LOVE weeds.

When you watch it Trichomus, you will not believe it, it is fucking ridiculous, right up your alley to say the least brother.

P.S.

Yeah I love "The Wire" too, not as much the last season, but the season with the Unions, and the "Greek", that season was awesome.

P.S.S.

Seriously I am not a fan boy of any show.

This show is fucking amazing.

It is so entertaining, it is the best show ever made in history.

No exaggeration.

This show has made me cry.

Fucking brilliant.

I dont doubt it would be up my alley, bro. I just can't wait to see it. Who's the emperor in the series?

If it's better than the Sopranos than I'm in for a real treat. Because the Sopranos has to be my favourite show of all time. Did you know that it has characters and ideas based on people a from the Gambino crime family?

First season, the Emperor is the legendary Julius Caesar.

This show really is better than Sopranos.

And I LOVE the Sopranos.

It is totally 100% realistic, they don't leave ANYTHING out.

Wine, Opium, Whore addictions.

Murder, organized crime.

Corrupt politics, you fucking name it, they have it all.

Rome is pretty good. I heard its the most expensive produced show on tv. Dexter on Showtime is pretty good too.

The trailers for the new movie 300 look pretty good too.
 
ahhhh....Julius Caesar.....the inspiration for my handle name. Triiiiiiiiii-ppy

He was he reason why the Roman Republic expenaded to become the Roman Empire. A great, cut-throat military leader.

Now I KNOW it's a great damn show.....
 
Cool Verite, I didn't know it was that expensive to produce, I wouldn't doubt it though.

Quality is top notch.

I am waiting for the next episode like a crack head waiting for a rock.

Be warned, when Caesar gets assassinated, you just might cry.

The show really shows the reality of what he was trying to accomplish.

Giving away land to farmers, social justice, racial equality, and just murdered for petty bullshit.

Bomb shit. I love the show... couldn't wait until it came back on! Antony is a great character, smug bastard, loves to bone and fight.... And Pullow and Voernous, how can't you love those dudes. This is going to be a good season... too bad you kinda know what happens in the end cause it's historical, but shit they have so many subplots going on it doesnt even matter.

I have watched rome from the first show.. Its amazing. I also loved deadwood but hear they arent extending it and making a movie instead. I predict pullo somehow ends up with Octavian. they were friends.
