love 'rome'...there isn't a miscue about it. i particularly enjoy repeat viewing of episodes, when i'm familiar with the plot development and i can scan the backgrounds for details. i recall one street scene in which you could see, far into the background, a pair of butchers stringing up a hog carcass and cutting it up....completely unnecessary for what the two characters were doing in front of the camera, but nevertheless contributing to the overall sense of viewing a camera mounted at the big end of a time tunnel into the past
