A truly well-done show that quite accurately represents the period in Rome’s history between Caesar’s attempt to seize power and Octavian’s ascension to the throne.
The only real gripe I had with it is that the show has few surprises for you if you know your history beforehand.

The plot is not that gripping if you know your history
