One of my favorite series, ever, is Rome, which came out on HBO, in the US, and BBC2, in the UK. With twenty-two episodes overall, the series began in 2005 and ended after the second season in 2007. I understand there was to be a third season but the cost of the thing was just too high to get anyone to sign off on that. Pity, considering the garbage which comes out of Hollywood these days.

An outstanding cast, a well-told story, and very high production values, I daresay, they just don't make them like this anymore. More's the pity.

If you haven't watched it, you should. It's entertaining and doesn't stray all that far from the historical record.

Caesar commands it!

Really, you should make the time to watch this. I've watched all 22 episodes three times and am about to embark upon a fourth viewing. It is really good.

Trust me.
