In the year 44 B.C., Julius Caesar has been assassinated and civil war threatens to destroy the Republic. In the void left by Caesar's demise, egos clash and numerous players jockey for position. The brutally ambitious Mark Antony attempts to solidify his power, aligning himself with Atia, but coming to blows with her cunning son Octavian, who has been anointed in Caesar's will as his only son and heir. Meanwhile, Titus Pullo attempts to pull his friend Lucius Vorenus out of the darkness that has engulfed his soul in the wake of personal tragedy.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Great, but not as great as the first season submitted by dimuziom on June 14, 2013, 4:02pm Still an incredible show, the second season starts strong, but for some reason it was canceled early and they had to rush the plot through the closing episodes, making season 2 a bit of a let down compared with the perfect pacing of the first season. Still worth seeing.
