We’ve watched all of Rome and Deadwood now. Ian McShane will always be Al Swearengen to me, in the same way that Jason Alexander will always be Costanza or Ratzenburger will always be Cliff Claven. Less so with Lucius and Titus from Rome, I think, but time will tell.

What next? I may be able to get Sherri to watch The Sopranos, but what other HBO/Showtime series are we missing out on? We’ve watched all of Entourage, too, and we tried to like Weeds but failed after 5 episodes.
