Yeah, the old school pharoahs did it too, although they benefitted from the new blood introduced by concubines (so your husband might only be your half brother, ew) I don't think the Ptolemies continued that practice.

I really want to own the DVDs but HBO makes them so expensive

If the season premire for next season doesnt contain something stating that Verenus is alive, I will not watch Rome anymore.

Unfortunately, that was the last episode of the series. I don't know why they are calling it quits after just two seasons. I really liked it.

From HBO:

"Don't miss this series finale, Episode 22: De Patre Vostro (About Your Father) this Sunday at 9pm ET. Plus, tune-in this Friday starting at 8pm for an encore presentation of the last three episodes of Rome."

I wish it were continuing, apparently it's incredibly expensive though. But so worth it. I wonder if it was more HBO and their ratings or the BBC and its funding...

Even though Rome is gone and it was a very excellent show. Cable tv are sure not to let us down with excellent series for exmaple the upcoming show The Tudors. I believe this show will become the next cable fan fave.

I loved this entire series from start to finish, yes it was gory and bloody and Sex was pretty much a part of the norm then. Atia had me dying from start to finish, she always got her way even when she didn't, i was on my toes the episode that boy poisoned her soup and her cook tasted it, broke out into a sweat that night and i loved the end when she walked ahead of octavians wife that was funny as hell. i will be buying this series as a xmas gift for the hubby
