Really enjoyed his performance in Rome. Sorry he's gone.

Well that sucks. He seemed like he was probably a good guy in real life.

Vale, Titus Pullo. Memoria De valens vivat tamque vestri.

I remember him from Dexter, but never saw any of his other works.

IMHO, there is no privacy in death and cause of death should be public knowledge.

Atia: Good fearsome specimens you are. I wonder it took you so long to subdue those odious Gauls.

Pullo: There was a great many of them, ma’am.

R.I.P. Ray. Titus Pullo was a most entertaining character. We’ll miss him him.

HBO’s ‘Rome’ was the 2nd greatest “TV” drama series ever, right behind HBO’s ‘Deadwood.’

David Milch had devised ‘Deadwood’ as a buddy-cop drama set in ancient Rome. When he shopped it to HBO execs they told him, “Sorry, we’ve already got a Rome-based drama in the works” (which was the McKidd/Stevenson vehicle, Rome). So Milch moved the setting to Deadwood in the Dakota territory, begetting Timothy Olyphant’s and Ian McShane’s brilliant ‘Deadwood.’

Kevin McKidd badly wanted to be cast as Titus Pullo but the producers or ‘Rome’ said the role of stiff-necked Legionary Lucius Vorenus demanded his range of acting skills.

Ray Stevenson was brilliantly cast as the brutish, somewhat dim-witted, often murderous, and occasionally kind-to-a-fault Titus Pullo, the anti-hero who regularly falls face-first into a pile of steaming horse dung but always comes out smelling like petunias.

Bon voyage, mon ami. You’ve left us too son.
