Rome


I was walking through Future Shop this morning, and noted that an HBO series called Rome now has it's first (and apparently only) season on DVD. I've heard of the series before but never watched any of it, and since I've taken an interest in historical fiction (mostly surrounding the Roman Empire, thanks to A Dream of Eagles), I might rent it from Blockbuster and perhaps buy it should I like it.

According to the brief descriptions I've read, the series takes place around 52 B.C. and ultimately deals with the decline of the Republic and rise of the Empire.

Have any of you seen it, and if so, what are your opinions and impressions of it?
