I would say only in that they are both excellent.

So far there's not been huge amounts of treachery and deceit in Rome.
There's that stuff going on, and that young Octavius is a very sharp kiddy
- no limp or stammer though. :)

Its too early for me to compare the two, but Rome is well produced, well
shot and well acted. Whether todays school kids will be talking about in
30 years though is another matter. :)


All the best,
