HBO's Rome has returned. I again travel with Pullo and Vorenus. Across the Mare Nostrum, to Ageyptus. Casting eyes on the daughter of Osris and Isis.Cleopatra herself. We have travelled with them before. Across the Mountains of Gaul. Daring to march over the Rubicon. Lead by Caesar himself. Caesar was stolen from us, by the so called Tyrannicides. Caesar will be avenged. Marc Antony and Caeasars adopted son. Octavian of the Juli will see to it.

I do enjoy Rome. Its not a perfect series. I think it as been maligned, and poorly promoted by the BBC. It seems to have been better recieved in the USA. Which is not suprising to me. Americans have been watching more sophisticated Televison for a decade now.

Rome has some great actors. James Purefoy, Polly Walker, Kevin Mackidd.

Its odd. In the Way Rome would have been odd. It shows the crazy religions. The nudity, the filth, and violence. That was, the Glory that was Rome
