                Well it's like Tony404 said, the series likely cost a hell of a lot to produce. That and being the subject matter is "known" history, it's not like they can just make stuff up for a new season.

                  After the broadcast of only three first season episodes, HBO announced plans to produce a second season of Rome in 2006 for release in March 2007[3]. Subsequently in a news conference HBO Chairman Chris Albrecht confirmed that Rome season two would air on HBO in January 2007, but would not return for a third season[4]. Most speculation for the early denial of a third season appears to center on the series' staggering costs, although neither Albrecht, cast members, or any HBO representative will comment on this speculation. The second season premiered January 14, 2007 in the US. It is expected to be shown in the UK in April 2007; the BBC is still to confirm this.

                  The first episode of season 2 attracted 1.5 million viewers.

                          For those who like history the series was fantastic.

                              Battle Star Galactica is on for the most part a "free" network. HBO isn't. So that's like trying to say thehun gets 2 million hits a day or what ever.. But a gallery inside a paysite only gets a few thousand hits per day.

                                    It was a great series. The last 2 episodes were the finest in the franchise. It will be missed.

                                      Are you kidding? I agree with the cost reason but the history goes off from there... source of great stories for years to come...

                                      One way to continue the historical story line at least is to check out "I Claudius".
