That totally sucks! Heaven forfend we show anything like accuracy in history. Wonder if part of it was the coup de grace by the Romans at the end of the final battle.
I had wondered when the timeslot was only an hour and a half long, and the DVD was two hours, but I didn't expect them to be so up front about their cutting. I guess that's better than hiding it, maybe? No one around here has said they liked it much, so at least I didn't miss high art or anything. It hasn't shown back up on the schedule though, which is annoying.
