HBO's Rome is probably my favorite show of all time, even 6 years after it ended. Anyone else a fan? I was feeling a bit sad today (looking through some youtube clips) that they only made 2 seasons because the show was just awesome. I was pissed off at HBO for canceling it, but I forgave them a little when they made Game of Thrones.
Here are some of my favorite scenes. There is plenty of violence, gore, and bad language in this show, so NSFW or around kids if you click the links, but it just wouldn't be Rome without it.

For a couple of years there was talk of a feature film, but I am kinda glad they didn't because they couldn't have done it justice.
