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

So I think this episode of Rome should be subtitled "Portrait of Mark Antony as a Rent Boy."

I have no idea how I'm going to deal with only one more episode of this. I just desperately wish they would film a third season.

Also? Watch Pullo's eyes through the whole scene with Gaia. He went from love to confusion to horror to hatred to fierce, unyielding resolution in mere seconds, and then followed it with self-loathing and then hatred again. I cannot believe how much he conveyed with his eyes and the set of his mouth without saying a word. Incredible.

And poor Vorenus. That is the look of a man who misses his boyfriend.

Also, Vorenus telling Caesarion about his father. Beautiful.

There really should be more.

Punishingly Intricate

Should say a lot about a show that years later, I still feel sad for a fictional teenage drug runner.

After erika's comment about the commentary I was going to say that I really need to rewatch the Wire from the beginning but I really don't know that I can live through some of it, like Wallace's death, again.

Also, Vorenus telling Caesarion about his father. Beautiful.

loved that so much. I am so sad there is just the one episode left. And I'm really worried about what's going to happen! Although I was sure that Antony was going to go through with killing Atia & Octavia in this week's ep.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I really don't know that I can live through some of it, like Wallace's death, again.

I rewatched the whole damn thing right before S4 started and regret it not a bit. In fact, I'll probably rewatch it again later this year, just because I miss it.

Punishingly Intricate

I think I will rewatch before season 5. They're starting filming this month! Weeee!

I know! And I'm glad you're rewatching. Relive the highs! Relive the lows! Relive the, um, mediums!

Always Anti-fascist!

For such a serious show, there is always so much comedy...one of the millions of things I love Bunk Moreland for.

I recorded Season 3 when they were showing it last summer, and started watching it once I got through the S 1&2 discs. When I hit "Back Burners", I discovered that I had recorded something on TLC instead of The Wire. Woe. So, waiting for a Season 3 disc to get here from Netflix before I can go on.

The stuff I want to see should really be On Demand. The name does imply it.

You would think, but in this post- Mission Accomplished era, who can say?

I expect more from my cable company than my government.

The Premium channels, anyway.
