I'm confused by that review. It seems to me to be mere ramblings. Once I read "...HBO’s forgettable “Rome” (predictable betrayals spiced up with toga parties)...", how could I take anything else she wrote seriously? I wonder what she thought of I Claudius? No doubt because it was a BBC production and shown on PBS she absolutely loved it.
In one of my favorite movies (didn't see the play) Biloxi Blues there's a scene wherein Eugene has his journal read aloud and at that point he realizes that people will believe whatever is written. That was one of those milestone moments in my life. A candle in my consciousness which continues to shine to this day. What she wrote was bunk. No need for it to upset anyone. Although, the fact that she wrote if for a prestigious publication is, upsetting.
