I agree that the guy who plays Bullock is one of the lesser actors on the show, he looks the part but he's kind of stiff and one-note a lot of the time.. I'm a couple of episodes into the Season 3 DVD at the moment, I thought Season 2 got bogged down a bit in some fiddly storylines relating to the less-interesting characters (after the first Season being amazing) but the third one seems better so far.

Yeah I didn't really give a shit about Joanie/Mr. Dental Veneers/Veronica Mars and I hope Joanie doesn't take up to much time in this season.

Every scene with Wu is gold. The bit where Swearengen meets George Hearst and tells Wu to say Cocksucker is one of my funniest TV moments ever. Also this...

I've just started loading Episode 1 of Deadwood on Tvshack now. Never seen it before. I love a good coincidence, me.

Finding that on the latter parts of Season 2. Helps that I've no idea what's going on about a third of the time. Something with the Pinkerton school mistress and Montana/Dakota/the Comissioner/telegraph man/Silas/the what now? I feel like my Mom watching The Usual Suspects.

Finished S2. Think you guys are being overly harsh. So many quotables! If you could buy the scripts in a book, I would.

Sol Starr is pretty much Rick Danko, isn't he? It's a couple of years since I played The Band's eponymous one but I think I'll be regularly spinning it watching this show.

My biggest problem is that the second season builds to this enormous crescendo and then just peters out.

What's that John From Cincinnati - one of the record shops nearby has the box set for cheap - worth picking up?

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

it's david milch's show after deadwood. it's about a family of surfers and the arrival of a mysterious stranger, John...from Cincinatti!!!

i think a lot of it is improvised towards the end

Finally finished all of these. The penultimate episode was an absoute corker by the finale was a bit meh. That Hearst is a fantastically repulsive baddie.

Just getting through Season 3 now after buying the box a while back.
I notice the third season so far has a number of co-written episodes. Anyway, they're cracking stuff.
Farnum & Richardson are fucking killing me.

check out John From Cincinnati when you are done. More David Milch gold.

Did that not die a horrible death?

It had one season. Didn't really leave anything hanging Carnivale style, but it could have gone on for longer. Worth watching.

Rewatching this at the moment.

Season 1 = sublime

Season 2 = I am very pissed off that Dan Hegarty has become such a stupid comedy sidekick this season. He

He what?


Season 3 is paying off for me.
Although it looks like Molly Parker is going back on the skag.

The Wire and The Sopranos are probably "better", but nothing will ever come close to Deadwood for me.

I loved the line from Ian McShane in a Grauniad interview last year:
"I'll catch it on TV sometimes and get drawn in. It was not good. It was fucking brilliant."

Milch's latest pilot wasn't picked up by HBO. Shame because it has a great cast. He's had bad luck there in recent years. I wonder if he ran over some exec's dog or something.
