I loved the series, but I wished for a censored edition. If anything, the series was a testament to the benefits of censorship. I found out more about coitus from that series than I had ever known before and more that I ever wanted to find out. If I could only have been warned.

Well, I gotta say something on this...

My favourite scene was when Antonius "met" the sheperd woman at the wayside.
"Rome" was more accurate than "Battles B.C." will probably ever be
If they can make people watch historically more or less accurate programs by inserting lots of sex, it's just perfect. They will see the sex and learn something at the same time. No need for "300"-style combat any more.

HBO has made quite a bit of accurate miniseries, although I do think that Rome does have an abnormal amount of racy material

You are absolutely, without a question correct. How could "Battles B.C." have taught me so much about sexual positions and fornication?? I mean really, there is no way it could have done that! Not to mention Rome's frank and down-to earth depiction of intercourse. What other porn flick could have done the same?? Obviously they are not as realistic. Only Rome is. That is why we should always watch Rome when we ant some pornography and read books when we want some history. Because the days of accurate, unadulterated history on television are irrevocably gone.

I would not say perfect. The fact that learning history, for most people, necessitates copious quantities of either sex or violence, then I am not altogether too impressed with the today's state of our society. It truly does not say much about it. I wonder how it was in the old days? What drew people to television and films back then?

But seriously, are you not bothered by how we are seemingly turning into something out of those multitudes of fictional, future dystopias where people are zombies of television that is filled with nothing but pornographic material?
