So ten years ago when I
was a dilettante of cable and had HBO I watched Rome, in parts. Today I binge watched Rome Season 1.
Compared to a lot of
dramas this six-disk set was entertaining, informative and great drama.
Produced by the BBC and shot
in Rome, it was a great 720-minute experience.
It took a day and a half to get through this library rental.
I hope that I can find
Season 2; I read the Wikipedia season two recap and that season looks even
better for Cleopatra is in four episodes.
I’m not sure why it took
another two years to produce this series with 10 episodes but season one is spectacular
featuring two heroes of the 13th Legion who tag along with Octavius,
Pompeii, Cesar and Marc Anthony.
The writing is very
tight.
10/10
