Ancient Rome’s chariot races and gladiatorial contests connect aristocratic ambition with the lives of people bought and sold for its entertainment.

Their supporting story sits within a large historical ensemble and includes exploitation and violence. The first-season relationship merits selective review with its limited prominence made clear.
