Rome

So, it looks like HBO has found its next dramatic hit in Rome. The first episode aired on Sunday and had just the right mix of action, sex and storyline to make it compelling. The first half hour was quite clutterred, but by the end, I was firmly hooked. It's quite an undertaking to do a tv show where only movies have tread before, but this one looks promising.

My main complaint is the show has an absurd amount of major characters. Check out the HBO.com profile of the show and you'll see there's 15+ characters.
