Wow, you guys actually watch this stuff. I thought I was the only one interested in watching it. I don't get HBO, so I'll be keeping an eye out for it in other forms.
Let me know if it's any good.

it's like a man's soap opera. lot's of blood, homo and hetero sex and violence along with paganism, etc.
you know the usual stuff
you'll be able to get it on DVD sooner or later

So this show is essentially anti-christian? Why does HBO hate america?

...and he asked them, "Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?" "Caesar's," they replied. Then he said to them, "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's." When they heard this, they were amazed. So they left him and went away...

(Oct 18 05, 20:02)fadeproof, what I want to know is how they looked exactly the sme 9 months later, what was there some magic gestation period in Ancient Roma? wtf...
I think it's Caesar's baby, but you know Antony and Cleopatra. This show get's it going. Watch out Caesar.
I did like that Caesar still had respect for Pompey.

The woman who plays Niobe is half Indian! I totally knew it.

seriously, they should have had a shot of a forest changing seasons or something, some kind of measurement to show a def. change of a chunk of time -
but i had read once that Ceasars policy of "clemencia" extended mainly to enemies that were of his own people - home grown enemies, when defeated, were never to be treated with shame or humiliation, thats why he got so emotional over Pompeii (and shit, they used to be friends too!) - when it came to foreign enemies, well, u see what happened to Ptolemy - face down in a fuckin ditch!

Wasn't someone else supposed to be part of the Triumverate (can't spell) with Caesar and Pompei? I thought his name was like Magnus or something. Anyway, there's only Caesar and Pompei right now, and there are supposed to be three men. From my knowledge.

Makes me wish I had HBO. I am boycotting cable for the last year and don't miss it. I will have to get HBO by the time the 6th season of Sopranos comes out though.
