Rome 1.6, Curb Your Enthusiasm 5.2, & Extras 1.2

Rome 1.6 was my personal favorite episode yet. Three classic lines. "For that price, she'd better fuck like Helen of Troy with her ass on fire", "If Triton can't keep me any drier than this, he can suck my cock!", and the best one was "A large penis is always welcome". Size queen much? Niobe's kid is clearly too young for all this. Octavian is great. Atia is such a slut. And a terrible person to boot. Now, historical accuracy may be damned, but I may be enjoying the show more.

Curb Your Enthusiasm 5.2 had a great dog, and a great plot with the lesbian and black underground messaging. Hilarious. Wondering about the season arc, but there are probably some threads that have been in the shows so far. And that guy with the stutter made the episode, because really, a guy with a stutter screaming obsceneties is funny, and doing it at Larry David is even better.

Extras 1.2 was somewhat funny, especially the ending scene with Ben Stiller and Andy's Stiller baiting, but severely suffers from comparisons with the Office. It needs more characters than Andy and Maggie. It needs characters who aren't worthless. I'm also extremely disappointed that they're showing these out of order in the US. So this was actually 1.1, and last week was 1.3. What the hell? HBO normally respects their shows. What the hell?
