Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'

And I got shivers when Antony walked into the palace in Cairo, and he and Cleopatra just said each other's names with all that will come behind it. I am *so* glad there are five more episodes.

I thought there were only two more episodes left.

Punishingly Intricate

I like SA's answer better! I can't tell from the HBO site at all.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I thought there were only two more episodes left.

I think you're right, unfortunately. I want MORE!

[Yep, just confirmed with DH -- only 2 left this season, and so far they're standing by their decision not to renew because it's too expensive.]

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Bleck! I thought we'd at least get a full thirteen. Frell.

I know it's expensive, but that's why it's so *good.* It's worth every penny. (I say, not paying for the subscription.)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Dude, only two eps to show the *historical spoilers*Battle of Actium* and all of its fallout, including the death of Marc Antony and Cleopatra and the foundation of the Roman Empire??? Not. Enough. Episodes.

Always Anti-fascist!

I was hoping you'd do that! Since my tech-fu is still weaker than a motherfucker and all. But I'm not posting from a damn stairmaster at least.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hey, I finally get that! Saw the Ray Cole wake last week sometime. Today, Hamsterdam got underway - so weird. The cop escorting Bubbles's friend down to cop "I hear that WMD is the bomb", so surreal.

And Avon is out. This is about to get very interesting, I think.

You can say that again.

It's still my favorite... One of the few things my mother doesn't even try to understand about me. Wanting Ray Cole's funeral, that is. Although the whole Baltimore thing confuses her, I think.
