HBO's Rome
That show had great scripts, great acting, and great visuals. I can't think of one area where the show had a serious deficiency. It was the quality of Game of Thrones before Game of Thrones. It just never caught on. I give it a rewatch once every few years.
RIP Ray Stevenson. 13!
Pullo was the best character ever.
As great as it is, you could tell they had to cramp two season's worth of story into the second season so that it felt very rushed and important side characters died off screen. And then of course the sets burned down ironically, making any continuation impossible.
