Rome season 1/2 for my dad. He finds the roman empire to be one of the most interesting parts of human history (so do I).
Hey, you don't have to be a fan of Roman history to appreciate Rome. That show was flippin' outstanding; acting, writing, plot, sets/costume. Absolutely brilliant. And then they cut it, just like Deadwood because it was "too expensive." Shame.
Now all HBO has left is Entourage, which is an ok show, but veeeeeeeeery stale. I mean it's about some spoiled B-list actors and their agent partying in Hollywood. Wow. Gripping
ShowTime is what HBO used to be. When Sopranos ended and they decided to slash anything else that was good just because of the production costs, they failed.
You either love it or hate it.
Word. I love the sh*t too, especially when you make it hard.
I like to mix it up with spiced rum.
