Livia’s decision to commit some cold-blooded murder leads to Domina’s most exciting episode yet, a fast-paced hour that manages to generate some genuine tension. 

Domina Season 1 Episode 5, “Plague,” gives Livia a frightening glimpse of how precarious her position in Rome is without her husband at her side. 

Domina’s fourth episode is a perfect mix of the best things about the show (Livia’s complex scheming) and the absolute worst (everything involving the younger generation).

Domina Season 1 Episode 3, “Family,” pushes the series over a decade into the future, recasts all its main characters, and finally gets into the meat of its story.
