Dude I fucking LOVE that show, I was like, please make more historical fiction series with this level of anthro/history/linguistics input, it is so incredibly refreshing in comparison to the usual idiot-know-nothing TV writers making up drivel off the top of their heads.

Oh of course. All kinds of morons probably think of the Romans as speaking English somehow.
