I just watched it and it makes me sad just like last season... waiting next week always pains me. Multidirectional hostilities always make me happy. Temporary alliances and the like. Good times.

I watched 24 instead. Im catching the re-run at midnight.

I was trying to enjoy it at the time, and not be too nitpicky.

The only thing that seemed to stand out as strange to me was their continual portrayal of Cicero as the absolute lowest pond-scum.

I like the series a lot. And if the relative attention to detail inspires a few thousand kids to go out and learn more about the real history of the times, then it has done a great service. Compared to most of the TV/Hollywood baloney, this series at least tries to depict the people and the mores of Late Republican Rome as something different, instead of the usual "everyone throughout history thinks and acts just like 21st century Americans".
