Outfit: sandals / toga / leaves behind his ears that I guess he's going to smoke a little later

Tagline: "Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more." (Act III, Scene II)

Plot summary: Have you ever seen "The Honeymooners?" Or "The Flintstones?" Or "The Jetsons?" Or "Wait 'Till Your Father Gets Home?" Or "These Are the Days?" Hey, check it out, the farther I stretch the joke out the more obscure the television show becomes. OR "THE ROMAN HOLIDAYS?" There we go, that's obscure enough. This show was a lot like that one. (more)

User Comments: Gus Holiday (probably after being taken by Madonna) was a working, middle-class family man who as far as I know never took place in any fiddle-playing or giant orgies, making him quite possibly the most boring Roman ever imagined. He is, however, dressed as we imagine the Romans to be dressed, which is points in the WIN column over his peers, because cavemen never wore ties and NO GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GRANDAUGHTER OF MINE IS GOING TO LISTEN TO ANY OF THAT EEP OPP ORK AH AH BULLSHIT.

Nobody really remembers the "Roman Holidays" but me, which is sad because it ruled so hard thy shant believe how hard it ruled. The theme song was even cooler. "When in Rome, you do as the Romans do, you play as the Romans play together!" Although I guess if they were already Romans they're doing as tourists to Rome should observe and do as well. Ho ho, 63 AD observational humor! Hey, do you think in ROME they call "French Fries" GAUL FRIES? And what's the deal with Chariot Food? I'd rather eat a Christian!

Don't let Mel Gibson fool you, it wasn't the Jews that killed Jesus, it was the Romans.

Roman Jews.
