"a snake bit her once... and died."

[verbminx]

OK, kids -

your mission tonight, should you choose to accept it, is to watch I, Claudius on the Trio network. It started at 8PM EST but they're rerunning the first two episodes several times tonight, so you should still be able to catch it if you want to. The remainder (13 episodes in all) will be shown throughout the week at 9PM EST, repeating once per night, at 1AM, I believe.

To add to your entertainment, I have dug up for you:

"NOT MY HEAD!" - The I, Claudius Drinking Game
and
Which I, Claudius Character Are You?

(both open in new windows, of course)

CLAVDIVS You're not the fool everyone takes you for. You put on a show to stay under the radar. Underneath your bumbling exterior, you are a shrewd and calculating person. You don't enjoy being in the spotlight, but you can take charge if absolutely neccessary. But trust no one, not even your best friend, because you never know who might betray you. You were portrayed by Derek Jacobi.

yeah, but there's a part of me that wishes I'd gotten:

LIVIA You are the power behind the throne. Rome would have fallen apart if you hadn't stepped in and saved it from anarchy. You're not above scheming, lying, and even murdering in order to keep your family in power. You are strong and determined, but you sometimes regret being born a female. In a world where men have the power, you are resigned to rule with your husband. You were portrayed by Sian Phillips.
