Colosseum - Season 1 - Eps 7: Commodus
All of Rome’s emperors have put great value on spectacles and games, but only one steps out of the Imperial Box and onto the sands of the arena: Commodus. A far cry from his father, the great Emperor Marcus Aurelius, Commodus is quick to make enemies - especially with one elite ruling body, the Senate. As the empire crumbles and Commodus’s popularity plummets, a deadly game of cat and mouse ensues, centered around Rome’s great amphitheater.
