Friends and Romans

[queenrikki]

I just watched the first two episodes of Rome and boy did that show have some bloody moments. The violence was visceral and I felt quite a bit of sympathetic pain. I laughed a bit and I thought it was kind of great to see something that was set in ancient Rome that actually looked like somewhere people actually lived. I rather liked it and I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the show.

Ooooh, yeah. I think by around episode 5 or 6 I was completely hooked. The first couple of episodes I was just trying to keep everyone straight.

But it did seem real, didn't it? You're right - this felt like it was inhabited by real people in a real setting.
