re: "Rome" falls tonight
The Brits did their usual great job of theater, the Italians aced the art direction and production values, and HBO deserves the highest of praise for making it all happen, but once again the American viewing public will get blamed for not really wanting excellence. Maybe they're right. I can't think of anything I've seen on TV in years with as much relevance to what's actually going on in the world right now. So, do you think Vorenus and Pullo will face off in the last episode?
We need one more season to get us to where "I, Claudius" begins.
