Rome, Sweet Rome

Seems official that HBO's stellar, and too short-lived, ROME, will receive the big screen treatment. A phenomenal program, with top-notch talent and writing, that has been promised to be back. Still not sure where they'll pick up, as many of the main characters died off, inevitably, with the show ending around the time of Antony and Cleopatra's suicides.

If much of the cast is to be brought back, they'll either have to employ flashbacks, or tell a story set somewhere in the middle.

With A Game of Thrones greenlit, what more can we wish for? DEADWOOD season or previously promised mini-series? Let's hope.
