Carnivale i think was the best finale that I saw. No HBO episode though compares even slightly to the first episode (2 parts) of season 2 of deadwood. The faceoff between Swearengen and Bullock [/ QUOTE ] The Wire, Season 3, EP 11.

Re: That\'ll close the book on \"Rome\"
My tivo didn't record the last few minutes of the episode for some reason. My question (with spoilers) is below:
<font color="white">The last scene I saw was when the women were getting ready for Octavian's "Triumph". This was the scene immediately after Vorenus seeing his children for the last time. Did anything noteworthy follow these scenes? </font> If someone could PM me the answer, it would be appreciated.

Re: That\'ll close the book on \"Rome\"
Can someone make some recommendations as to the best books to read about the actual Roman history during this time?
I've loved the show and would like to read about the history to understand the show even more and see what they changed.

Re: That\'ll close the book on \"Rome\"
hopey (spoilers):
<font color="white"> you definitely missed one scene. it's cute but not all that important. The ending of the "girls getting ready scene" was pretty good and I'm not sure you saw all of it? </font> PS: we should get a mod to add a spoilers disclaimer to the title.

Re: That\'ll close the book on \"Rome\"
The episode has aired---why are people concerned about disclosing plot information? I thought it was only a "spoiler" if the show hadn't aired?

Given it is the series finale i see no problem being careful with spoilers for the next week or two.

Re: That\'ll close the book on \"Rome\"
Worthless: Just read roman history books. Literally. Livy and Tacitus are two of my favorites. Plutarch is less factual, but awesome. Enjoy.
