Just wanted to say thank you guys again and tell you that I picked up Season 1 
.
Have viewed part of Episode 1 and I really like what I see so far...could have done without the sex scene right off the bat no less than 12 minutes into it LOL but Im afraid thats more the military historian in me...MORE BLOOD AND FIGHTING! LOL Although I will say the girl was certainly exquisite and good looking. So far I also really love the guy whos playing Caesar, so far its just as I imagined him when reading about him, he just seems to have captured the character and made it his. (Ala Johnny Depp and Jack Sparrow)
Its a shame they portrayed Cleopatra that way...everything Ive ever read on her said that she was brilliant but perhaps not as beautiful as described, that rather her beauty was her intelligence and thats what attracted the Romans to her.
Then my g/f called and asked me what I was doing and she quickly reminded me that she had wanted to try it out with me (shes not too big on Military History stuff but love and intrigue she loves)...I was shocked I had forgotten such a momentousness occasion that she actually wanted to watch something like this with me. LOL So I put it back in the box to be viewed by us during the weekend . All the best, Jonathan
