I seem to recall on another thread that a bunch of us listed Rome as one of our favorites.
I just saw the "series finale" last night (no spoilers, for those who haven't seen it yet), and my major question is how come HBO/BBC and whoever else is involved isn't continuing?
Two lousy seasons? I mean, jeez, they didn't even get to the part where Octavian was elevated to Emperor Augustus. Lots of great, juicy Roman war and sex and (literal) cut-throat politics left to mine for stories.
So what happened? Ratings not so good?
Anybody on the Brit side of the pond know the story?
And while we're at it, did Coupling end with the kid's birth? 'Cause I wanted more of that, too.
