	USATODAY.com - HBO's 'Rome' burns with realistic depiction of ancient life (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Every detail in its re-creation of ancient Rome may not be correct, but the spirit and the overall picture ring true — and the entertainment value resounds.
		But by moving outside the halls of power and into the city's streets, this series does create a sense of Rome as a living and breathing place — the vibrant, colorful, sensual, crowded center of the ancient world — that has never been matched on TV.
		Rome could be a rough and licentious town, and Rome exercises that historical license through throat-slashings, brain-drillings and full-frontal nudity, male and female.

	Guardian Unlimited \| Guardian daily comment \| Apart from vomitoriums and orgies, what did the Romans do for us?
		It is a cliche among modern critics that public fascination with ancient Rome is driven by politics and imperialism.
		The new Rome series has an awful lot of bonking dressed up as "an authentic glimpse of the ancient world".
		A BBC series which presented the French as garlic-reeking gluttons, tucking into frogs' legs and snails, or the Germans as a load of jack-booted cabbage eaters, might not end up with a prosecution but it would certainly prompt an appearance from the relevant ambassador on the Today programme, lamenting our dependence on these worn-out stereotypes.

	Ancient Rome - with dirty old men \| Theatre \| Stage \| Arts \| Telegraph
		The promise of that song is abundantly fulfilled in the delirious two hours that follow, as scriptwriters Larry Gelbart and Burt Shevelove adapt the comedies of the Roman dramatist Plautus.
		In an excellent programme essay, Gelbart, best known for the TV series MASH, writes that the aim of the show was to fill the "vulgarity vacuum" created by the more serious* musicals of Rodgers and Hammerstein, and Lerner and Loewe.
		The piece is a riot of sexy courtesans out of burlesque, gags that owe more to ancient vaudeville than ancient Rome, and such imperishable stock characters as the dirty old man, the dumb blonde and the bossy old bag of a wife.

		There were three series (not sure which just finished on Sky) and now HBO is allowing the makers to do a four hour miniseries to tie everything up, it will be two two hour eps being shown sometime next year i think (most likely this time next year when the tv season starts again).
		Sky just finished showing series 3 and I have enjoyed it but it just looked like they were going to leave everything hanging in the air which left a bad taste really.
