Not bad at all. There is a bit of a disconnect between being modern yet portraying historical accuracies. I like the little touches, the laying on the couches, the wardrobe choices, the toilet, and even when Livia is brushing her teeth. These are pretty amazing details yet in the grand scheme of things it feels more like a modern soap opera. I understand that the real events were pretty much like that, but it kind of comes across to me a bit "too" dramatic. Like they hired the script writers from CSI or NCIS. A bit too campy.
All in all I think it's really well done though. The production value, music, acting, those little touches make it worth while. I find it interesting that though this was 2000+ years ago, we still deal with the same BS from our "ruling class". Just goes to show there's nothing new under the sun.
