Definitely. The actors playing Vorenus & Pullo have a great chemistry together.

I wonder if the producers of this saw the dailies coming in and said..."damn, we gotta write more of those guys and put them into every important scene in history." But to quote another, they do seem to have powerful gods on their side. :)


I am so glad I stayed with this show. It is one of the few shows I look forward to each week.

living in the 21st century, it's pretty funny hearing ceasar threaten scouring and crusifiction as a form of discipline

Spoiler for those that are not up on their history.
Spoiler:
She waited for her 2nd Roman for love, I wonder if we will see her and Marc die this season, surely they will not just skip over that portion.

I haven't seen any advance synopses or episode listings for the rest of the season, but I have a pretty strong feeling "Rome" is aiming to end with Julius Caesar's assasination. The Antony and Cleopatra story doesn't pass until after Octavian (to be Augustus) becomes Emperor. There just seems to be too much stuff to cover to get to that this season. This season seems to be Julius Caesar's story. Maybe next year (if it happens) would be good to do the "rise of Augustus" story (and have an older actor take over the role).

The episode title for the finale is

Spoiler:
Kalends of February

Which would be February 1st I believe and a month and a half before the Ides of March

Titus Pollo now rivals Johnny Drama as one of my favorite TV characters. Both are amusing, but Pollo actually has the ability to back up his words.

How'd you miss it the first time? It's pretty obvious that they aren't mother/daughter if you've been watching the series.

Did you just catch this one espisode? I could see the misunderstanding if this was your first episode.

Great episode. I think Cleopatra is a total hottie. A bit of a mix between Jolie and P. Cruz.

My only complaints are:

The date isnt shown during episodes. This ep had a year pass at least and it wasnt stated (only verbally). However, since the first ep, years have gone by. I often forget that and think it would be better if dates were given.

Also, I hate that they dont show any battles. totally weak.

Well you just had to go and ruin her by mentioning my two most hated bitches in Hollywood. I cant wait to see her die now.

:lol: Ooops. Well I actually dont really care for the two "hollywoods" myself. Cleopatra looks like the better of the two.

Finally watched this off the DVR. I thought it was, by far, the best ep of the series. Really fascinating stuff and very entertaining. Rome is the one new drama series I'm watching and boy, it's getting better. Who knew that Cleopatra was the Courtney Love of the first century BC?

And for those who insist on the most meaningless spoiler in the history of the world :
Spoiler:
Time Magazine, in their review of the series, stated that the season ends with the assassination of Caesar. Though of course they could have been wrong.

I just hope his buddy Brutus doesn't have anything to do with it :) .

Groucho 10-25-05 09:06 AM
That spoiler is wrong. Here's how the series will end:

Spoiler:
Caesar resigns as Dictator in order to market his new Salad Dressing.

Decker 10-25-05 09:39 AM
Here's the exact quote, which I include because I found it funny:
Spoiler:
Season 1 traces Caesar's rise to power and the events leading to his assassination. (None of this should be a spoiler, unless the educational system has truly failed us.)
