After finally seeing what all the fuss was about (saw 3 episodes back-to-back this weekend), I don't understand all the hubbub.  It's a gritty series.  Sounds like Deadwood was a gritty town.  This isn't Saturday morning cowboy serials or a Roy or Gene picture.  These were rough men living in a rough town.  If you don't like it or can't take it, change the channel.

I like this show a lot, but was so sad to see WILD BILL get killed off.   

I heard its been renewed for next season already due to popular demand.

How can ya have a story about Deadwood without Wild Bill?

   JBH was killed only 3 months after the founding of the town

  By the way for those of you that enjoy the series, the second season will be out on DVD the 23rd of this month. The third season begins in June.
  I am a Deadwood junkie, I enjoy the series and overlook the language they use. For fun you can go the HBO site and take the Deadwood quiz.

Was kinda out of the net last year and missed the entire season as a consequence.  But like Dakota Dan, I managed to pick up one of those boxed sets and just finished watching the final episode of Season 2 this evening.  All I've got to say is wow! what an ending.  It certainly will be interesting to see who manages to survive and thrive in Season 3.

Hey, sir!  Good to see you again!  I am still here in the sandbox (Southern Iraq); we had quite a night last night...reminds me of Baghdad!!

Sorry fellas, it may be thet Ah like mah cowboy movies without cussin But mah type o Horse opera is the John Wayne type shore there may be shootin, killin, and sum mild expleatives, speshelly in his later films but Ah kant recall hearin the F word or any other other word relating ta thet paticular activity in his movies! sides English, in my estamation and experance is a rich enough language to say what you mean to say without 'gutter language' jest mah opinion a course.

I've said this before, but the cussing on Deadwood is not without a point.The real Deadwood was a place of no law, and very little order.  It was a 'wide open" town in every sense of the word.  Milch had to get that point across to us, and what was wide open cussing in 1876 is heard every day now... so Milch used "modern" curse patterns. 

And by the way..this may be Deadwood's last seaon.  There are several reports on the web that the actor's contracts have expired and none of them have been renewed.  David Milch has been quoted as saying that he planned on bailing at the end of the 4th year anyway..at the latest.  More details over on the Wire.

I hate ta say this; however I find it to be true, at least in my experence,
  I served my country, in the Navy and active reserve for six years and sailors are known for cussin an I cussed along with the best of 'em when in the service, but when I left, I left the cussin behind, Oh I still know the words and on occaision some do slip out but never in public. It's always "gosh, heck, fooey, shucks, bellybones, and fingledapt" and rarely an ocaisional  "Bloody" If I'm really purturbed when out in public.
 As I said before, English is rich enough to say what you want to say with resorting to 'gutter language.'
 I find foul language degrading to the speaker.  It shows, in my estimation, a lack of intellegence. and lack of respect for the listeners. However I do agree with Mark Twain who is creited with saying "Sometimes a good hell or damn releaves stress quicker than praying can." Or something to that effect.

Howdy,

     They are shooting season 3 right now at Gene Autrey's Melody Ranch. Ian McShane says he'll play his role for as season 5 or 6. Think that this is simply Dead wood, like all the tales of Boomtown, it get's citified. That will lose viwers, and that can't be held off forever; even by HBO

I have a email letter, from them that says- they let all the actors go, for other projects.  Why does HBO suck you in, only to spit you out, at their time and convienence?  Back to the western videos for me.
