Yup, I'm watching ROME, very well made series. apart from the adventures of Lucius Verenus & Titus Pullo it's very historically accurate (right down to the graffiti on the walls). The acting is top notch, & it's just that bit shocking (but the sex & violence are mean to, to give the viewer an idea of what the Roman Empire was really like. This show is comparable to I, Claudius for the excellence of the writing & acting. I wonder if the series will go all the way to the crowning of Octavian aka Caesar Augustus as the first emperor. BTW I wasn't that impressed by the final season of Babylon 5, apart from the very last episode, it suffered from the absence of Ivanova (Claudia Christian was sorely missed).
