Title: Not much different from politics of today!
Review: I loved I, Claudius and couldn't stop watching the episodes. If you love ancient Roman history, you'll love this tale of treachery, power, and survival. But, I'd like to clarify one thing. One reviewer insinuated that "Ken Star and the American right wing" seemed to think they had a corner on policing "debauchery, sabotage, murder, drinking too much wine & eating too much red meat." I say "Thank God!" In a century of power dominated by likes of "left wing politicians" like FDR, John, Bobby & Ted Kennedy, Gary Hart, and most of all, Bill Clinton, we can all be thankful that someone is policing the actions of those in power. After watching I, Claudius, you'll see that the goings on in the palace in Rome are not far off from the shadey actions of those listed above. One could readily imagine Monica Lewinsky roaming the palace halls with Caligula.
