Rome (the series) is returning to HBO! Any DU fans?
http://www.hbo.com/rome/

This series is awesome and I highly recommend it. If you have HBO, it's Sunday, January 14. This is the second season for which I have waited a LONG time.

It's back! Yay!

1. So that's why they're rerunning the first season ...
... but yeah, I liked it.

I'll have to buy some more popcorn.

2. Yeah Rome is a very good show.
The episode where Titus has to fight in the pit as a sentence for his crimes and Lucius comes in to save him is one of the greatest episodes from any show ever. Brilliantly done. I absolutely despise Atia.

3. I loved it!
It's kind of sleazy, but in a very good way. And the sets, costumes, and cast of thousands are AMAZING. :thumbsup:

4. I enjoyed season one very much too
I'll probably have to use torrents since I have no idea when the BBC will show them.

5. I'm really looking forward to it.
And since I don't even have a working TV I figure that says something. Thank goodness for the internets, I should see it sometime monday I figure.

6. I think it's pretty good.
It started off with a lot of soap opera bullshit but it got better towards the end.

8. Very much looking forward to premiere!
How many episodes in an season? thirteen? That seems to be the run for an HBO season, the lazy bastards! :)

This will be it's last season, and in interviews the actors have said that knowing it only had this final year really freed them up to go all out, and go to a really visceral place.

Apparently Vorenus gets a new career this year...

I'm really sad that it's going to be the last season though, and that there are only 10 episodes. :cry:
