HBOs Rome Anyone Watching?
 

I've watched the first two episodes and am impressed so far.

Like most HBO projects this one seems well done. Power, Sex, Revenge.

Anyone watching -- what do you think so far?

Other than Julius Ceasar was blonde and balding, it's pretty damn good.

I thought it was OK, if a little convoluted. Who knew there was so much sex going on in ancient Rome?

I trusted HBO before and worked so hard to enjoy Carnivale that I'm very wary. I would be surprised if this show is a success - they're spending crazy money on it and I would think the market is limited.

I really like it. It's definitely better than 99% of the crap that the networks are putting out. After two episodes, it has me hooked.

Its good. Also, every review I read leading up to this show debuting said that the first two episodes were BY FAR the worst and most boring of the entire run...so I am really looking forward to the rest.

They're introducing the characters and setting up the plot, so it's no surprise that the first two episodes might be a little slower than the rest of the series. That being said, I found the first two episodes to be very good. If the next episodes will be even better, that's gravy.

Yep. Looks like Titus is going to end up siding with Caesar, and Lucius will reluctantly side with Pompey. Also, as an aside...I WISH I COULD BREAST FEED ON LUCIUS' WIFE. My God.
