Not a single redeemable female character. The moral of the story is women are evil.
>>
The slave girl was nice
>>
>>220300334
Pullo's? She was alright I guess.
>>
Octavia isn't that bad. Dumb, sure. But she tries to be decent most of the time.

Also that one peasant girl that Anthony randomly bones didn't do anything except not cum.
>>
>>220301219
Not cumming from old cock's old cock is a grievous sin
>>
>>220300292
Sometimes I do have to admit that 4chan is just sexist.
Niobe didn't really do anything wrong- she was a single bitch with 2 kids and the legion told her she was a widow and stopped sending her money.
She was actually loyl in the end and she ragained her honour in the traditional British tourist way.

And yet you refuse to leave. Just cope with the fact that you find the sperg site interesting to post on, and stop putting on airs.

>>220302821
Pullo agreed, and so did Octavian. Her crime wasn't cheating but who she cheated with. She fucked her sister's husband. And then Vorenus' boys murdered him and dumped him in the fucking sewer after hours of torture.
>>
>>220300292
young octavian was so handsome hot
>>
>>220302891
I wish it was that easy now
>>
>>220300292
the male characters were also all evil, i think the nicest ones are octavia and augustus

Pompey's new wife is ok

Did anyone else think Servilia was hot

In a you can tell she was a total dime piece 25 years ago sorta way, yea

Funny how of all Caesar’s enemies Cato was the only one who actually had principles and wasn’t a total faggot

>Cato was the only one who actually had principles and wasn’t a total faggot

Both sides were ready and happy to mutually disarm and disband but Catos raging hateboner against Caesar made him ruin that option. He put his personal feelings ahead of what was best for the Republic and the wishes of the Senate. Dude was a total hypocrite.
>>
>dudes murdering people left right and centre

>whole civilisation based on colonising innocent Gauls
Aaaaaah the women are so heckin evil because t-they cheat! And th-they LIE!

Incel retard
>>
>>220305683
if anyone in the senate or roman elite in general gave a shit about the republic they wouldnt have been importing slaves en masse.
they were no different than the gop granting amnesty
>>
What was the he point of the Jewish subplot that went nowhere
>>
>>220305876
Just wanted to show Jews have been plotting assassinations for thousands of years
>>
>>220305876
Le oppressed minority storyline needs to be shoehorned into every period drama. See also Boardwalk Empire constantly wasting screentime on Chalky
>>
>>220305741
atia had servilia raped and tortured. OP is a retard but you're not much better for swinging so hard the other way
>>
>>220305741
But there are still men on the show who exhibit honorable traits while basically every female character is a worthless trollop
>>
>>220300292
series did its best to be realistic
>>
>>220302891
That just turned her on more
>>
>>220300292
Roman history knows Roman women as either virtuous wives and mothers OR depraved sluts and evil schemers. no inbetween.
>>
>>220302891
Depressingly realistic. She was probably soaking wet when she saw he was so obsessed with her that he caved her bf’s skull in

How can one series have so many meme worthy quotes?
>>
>>220306427
very theatrical show
>>
>>220300292
While that is a great conclusion, Servillia did nothing wrong
>>
>>220305876
The original plan was for the series dedicate an entire season in Judea, Pullo and Vorenus were going to recreate their Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead pastiche with baby Jesus. Timon would have been a central character that season you would presume
>>
>>220302821
You could have just said that Niobe did nothing wrong without sounding like a redditorino frienderino
>>
>>220306289
I dont see her running or screaming. It wasnt rape.

Not even memeing, under that era she probably saw it as a way to make a few unexpected coins
>>
>>220306520
Antony can't rape. Women all want it, the might just not know from the start that they do.

>seduces her brother because she's in a lesbian relationship with a hag because she hates her mom
Honestly Jocasta is the best among them. Her only sin was dissing Italian kush and preferring the Macedonian kind like a dumb pseud.
>>
>>220302821
She fucked her sister's husband and got pregnant
>>
>>220302821
Fucked over her sisters marriage.
Didn't tell Vorenus about her son at the most opportune moment when he would have forgiven her
Killed herself because she didn't tell Vorenus, and did it in a way that would make their legitimate children hate Vorenus
Vorenus MAY not have even killed her when she chose to do it herself. IMO he was about to break and not harm her.

She's in good company though, almost everybody in Rome is a selfish asshole.
Lydie did nothing wrong other than being barren, which isn't really her fault
>>
>>220306465
caesar didnt pimp slap her for nothin
>>
>>220306465
>Servillia did nothing wrong
Her lust for Ceaser cock and revenge caused a civil war. Not to mention she was retarded for punishing/hating Ceaser when it was clearly Atia's fault that he had to cut off contact with Servillia.
All her talk to Brutus about upholding the republic was bullshit. She fucked over her sons life super hard too. Also she was wrong for thinking she could go the distance against Atia. Only good thing she did was kill herself, but only after she brought ruin on Rome

>Brutus is a cowardly little bitch who only joined the conspiracy because Caesar was gonna send him to Macedonia
Pleb opinion
Brutus felt betrayed by Caesar and conflicted between his loyalty to his father figure and his perceived duty to the Republic
In the show he's also manipulated by his mother, because in the show everything was basically due to a spat between his mother and Atia

Cicero was an elitist asshole who supported the 1%ers who had fucked up the Roman Republic, literally forcing Caesar to take care of business.
>>
How about the chick that ended up married to Anthony's main slave? She was kind of decent.
>>
The funny thing is that Rome actually made the famous women involved much less heinous and evil than they were in real life.
>>
if more mothers worried about their son's virginity like Atia the world would be in a better place
>>
>>220310726
Cicero has literal millennia of simps romanticizing his apologia for corrupt oligarchs as being a martyr for the Republic. Cicero merely defended the interests of his patrons. He himself did not come from old money, but his career was made in thanks to the backing of those old patrician families.

Caesar WAS born to an incredibly old patrician family, but essentially betrayed his class interests to side with the Populares faction to push for "radical" land reforms, including such horrible ideas as not allowing a few hundred rich old people own most of the arable land in Italy.

Well technically it wasn't murder since he was just a slave and all. More like destruction of property. Just a bit of vandalism. Give him a fine and tell him to stop scribbling on walls.
>>
>>220300292
you "learned" a lesson from fiction
>>
>>220300292
It's funny how both Atia and Octavia were in fact morally impeccable, beloved, and pious Roman matrons. I guess they tried to make at least Octavia into a sympathetic, but certainly not perfect character here.
