Truly enjoyed Rome when it was on HBO. Thought Lindsey Ducan superb. Understood at one time a motion picture was considered. Guess funding fell through?
Maybe we should hang out in front of HBO’s office and repeatedly call for justice and more seasons of Rome. ;)
“Rome” was originally intended to run 4 or 5 seasons, but production was so expensive they had to shut down after two. Really enjoyed it as well; one of the best features is the way they intertwined the historical drama (involving larger-than-life-figures with whom few people could identify) with the lives of Pullo and
Vorenus, flawed yet sympathetic individuals that the audience could invest in emotionally.
