14:30 —
- Odysseus
- The cyclops in that story is Polyphemus.
- 24:00 — This works out. Whatever side wins, the one of them can vouch for the other. One has vows to the senate, and the other vows to the gods and marriage. Both are admirable traits.
- 33:00 — Why would he be blue like that? It was recent, and I thought bodies were still play for a while.

- 52:30 — That wall has never been explained.
s01e07 – 2005-10-09 – Pharsalus ∞
Spoiler
- 3:00 — The same fake horse sound has been bothering me for some time. Enough for me to want to start keeping track.
- 15:00 — See? Urr.. hear? There’s that fake horse sound again.
- 18:45 — I was hoping the one guy who thought of Caesar like a father would have turned on them.
- 22:30 — Was I not paying attention? I thought that leader was sure to be killed..
- 22:45 — Why aren’t they going inland, at least to scout a bit?
- 25:30 — A raft of corpses is so awesome.
- 28:45 — Oh, thank you. Unnecessary, but thank you. I’m totally on board now.
- 30:00 — So how come all of his men left?

- 41:00 — This is terrible and uncomfortable.
- 41:45 — Never stick your dick in crazy.
- 46:15 — Were I the bad guy, I would have gone after his friend. Then if I were the writers of this show, I’d have friend-guy be going for all his various hidden sword stashes in one big awesome drunken fight.
-
50:30 —
s01e10 – 2005-11-06 – Triumph ∞
Spoiler
- 26:15 — Doesn’t he know exactly what he has to live for? How hasn’t he freed that slave and married her? If he didn’t have the money, he would be readily given it by his best friend.
- 29:30 — Why go through all that? Keep him alive for so long, only to kill him like that right then and there? Any symbolism wasn’t explained at all.
s01e11 – 2005-11-13 – The Spoils ∞
Spoiler
- 17:15 — It’s probably a bad idea to get horribly high and murder someone.

Spoiler
- 4:30 — Unnecessary humor.
- 4:45 — Now he’s a horse thief too.
- 36:00 — Why would he believe her? He’d have new enemies in his position now.
- 38:15 — Someone calculated Caesar’s level and hit points based on rules of Dungeons & Dragons.
