HBO has some amazing documentaries too. Mostly about people, not really nature based or anything. Their "America Undercover" documentaries are always real good. super secret link

I'm pretty offended that Curb appeared at the bottom of that list. It should have been the first thing you thought of.

I saw a couple when it was new, mostly because she was in it, plus Chloe Sevigny as she is always in good stuff. What were you looking at?

I searched for a thread on Rome and this was the closest I got.

Just watched the last episode of the first season. Wow. HBO did it well. Even though I knew what was going to happen, I was so involved with all the characters that it had me properly sucked in. The bit in the senate was aggy! I liked how they didn't have Ceaser actually saying "et tu Brute" but the look in his eyes said it more than words could.

Very good show, shame it only got two seasons.

That weak attempt at an HBO stlyle production by Channel 4 called Camelot demonstrated how shit and stagnated the British TV content is. Thank christ for HBO!
