I started watching it with low expectations since it was HBO but I've really gotten into the series since I saw it a few weeks ago. I didn't expect a documentry and Im not watching it to learn history but I like the story and the characters are interesting to me. Since I've been gone for a nearly two months with the Katrina operation it's the only thing I've actually watched on TV on a regualr basis. Anyway, I'm sure some of the history purists here will loath it but it's pretty good. It's definitly in the HBO tradition as of late.

Anyone Watching Rome On HBO

We are evil men in the gardens of paradise, sent by the forces of death to spread devastation and destruction wherever we go. I'm surprised you didn't know that. --Saul TighTags: None

I've been downloading it.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

Well usually I don't care so much (maybe karma will take care of mp3 downloaders ), but in this case, I'd rather have people pay for HBO so that they could continue to bring us shows like Rome. Rome isn't cheap for one and neither are the other shows they have on (Carnivale got canceled because of the cost combined with low ratings ).
I think people that put out good work should be rewarded and not have their product downloaded for free.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)

irrelevant...
if it wasn't available for download, then I just wouldn't be able to watch it...
it's not like I'd just go out and subscribe to HBO...
it's a good show, but not worth the extra money I'd have to pay monthly for HBOTo us, it is the BEAST.
