Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2007 I'm going to have to watch again today. I saw, of course, when Pullo was plowing her, but missed the story around it all. On a side note, I'd plow her too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
World's Worst Man 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2007 That whole Gaia thing is just incoherent. The lead-up to Antony and Octavia's wedding was funny to me. I guess because it was tongue-in-cheek or something. Lepidus being ignored by the other 2 triumvirs was also humorous. I wish this season was 13 episodes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2007 That whole Gaia thing is just incoherent. How so? Gaia wanted Pullo, he turned her down, so now Gaia is taking it out on Eirene. Eirene tells Pullo, so Pullo confronts Gaia, but Pullo is (sexually) frustrated because Eirene isn't giving it up for him because of her pregnancy, so he gives in to the temptation & fucks Gaia.

I don't think she has any desire for Pullo. It seemed like her and the 3rd in command guy (forget his name) were plotting something in earlier episodes, and what she's doing doesn't make much sense given that. First she tried to get with Vorenus, and now Pullo, and if they really wanted to get rid of those two, that seems like a woefully inadequate way of doing it. I suppose if she's only in it for herself it makes sense to partner up with the top guy in the command chain. Maybe I was just reading the earlier episodes wrong and she really only wants power for herself. She has a great rack in any case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2007 I don't htink she was planning anything other than attaching herself to the person w/ the most power. She latched onto 3rd, and was trying to trade up to Pullo or Vorenus. At least, that's how I read it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So yeah, I think she's trying to sleep her way up the ladder. This will end up very badly if she causes Eirene to abort Pullo Jr. and he finds out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2007 I'm guessing the series culminates with Pullo and Vorenus killing pretty much everyone associated with their group, and leaving Rome together, or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2007 This show has passed everything to be my favorite...Heroes, The Wire, Dexter, 24, everything. I've been downloading and am finally caught up fully.

World's Worst Man 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2007 Is it just me or has Octavian become the ultra dick heel this season? He was quite cutthroat before he ascended to power. The proscriptions being a prime example. After the war was over it was a different story though, as he ended up being quite virtuous and benevolent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
World's Worst Man 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2007 I liked the call-out to Tiberius in this week's episode. Atia's face turn is totally complete. Gaia playing a face at the end is ironic. They didn't really play up her antics much at all in that episode. The mini-battle at the end was fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spicy McHaggis 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 Titus Pullo has been unleashed! You have to hand it to the writers, as we're now rooting for Antony and Atia (somewhat) and against Octavian. Oh, and Agrippa is a woman, a straight up pussy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 Strong episode last night...maybe the best of the season so far, just about. Really good ending with Antony meeting Cleopatra again in Egypt.

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2007 Antony is such a cock. I definatly root for him when he's at odds with the kid Octavian: "Here is a list of the most prominent supporters of Brutus and Cassius left in Rome. We should... kill them... before they learn what we're about." Mark Anthony: "You ARE a ferocious little cunt... with a pen." ------ Atia: "If a marriage was to happen between our two houses..." Mark Antony: "I don't care if all Italy burns, I'll not marry him." (pretending Atia means Octavio and not herself for marriage.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2007 Another really good episode this week. I really liked the parallels between what Pullo did (killing Erene's lover and then marrying her and being happy) to what Gaia did (poisoning Erene and being happy with Pullo). It's like neither one deserved to be happy, so they just got a taste of what they wanted and then got it taken away. Anyway, most of all, I'm sad to see the show end. There are so many really, really well developed characters that each have their own interesting side stories. At the very least, it would have been nice to see a couple more episodes squeezed in, but I guess this is the end of the line. Too bad Antony can't win at Actium.
