Would you guys rate it above or below Mad Men, White Collar and Battlestar Galactica (season 1) which are currently on my "to do" list?

I think it is. It's not as blood and guts as 300, and it's not as much acting and monologue as Rome, somewhere in the middle.

IMO, this shows pales in comparison to Rome. The intrigue and character development in Rome was superior in every possible way. Still, I'm watching this show and enjoying it - something that doesn't happen too much.
