It sounds like I should pick this show up. Is it worth my time?

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?

Depends on your tastes, I guess. Tough to compare it to those shows.

The first few episodes establish the gore and T n' A... but the drama and intrigue really ramp up after that.

It starts off like, "300 : the series", but it's become a lot better than that.

Edit: Also, IMO... the acting is very good. If this were an HBO series, it'd be getting a LOT more buzz.

Better than Mad Men and White Collar, not the same as BSG (just different). That's just my taste, though. I couldn't get into Mad Men and White Collar. Just not my preference.

I like White Collar more myself actually. I haven't seen Mad Men.

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.
