Deadwood

blueerica · 02-28-2005, 09:23 AM

I'm starting this early because I need something to keep me pumped tonight, especially since I'll be in my.. (gasp!).. dreaded programming class.

March 6th.

Will anyone other thank EH & I be watching?!

Grrr. I hadn't heard of this. Last night I saw the ad during the Oscars and thought, "Wow, this looks like an actual quailty TV show!" Little did I know that I was getting my hopes up for nothing since it's on HBO

It's for awesome! Can't wait till for the new season to start. It will be the only TV I watch (until the next Sopranos season starts).

That's right, GD. It is quality TV. And that's why the only two shows I watch at all are both on HBO.

I'm quivering in anticipation of this next season. My eyes almost well up with tears, for good TV!! There's just too damn little of it...

Tell me about it. And what is good gets canceled because it's not inane enough for the sheep to watch. I'm am going to mourn if Arrested Development doesn't make it. Fortunately Desperate Housewives seems to have legs. But that's about it in the way of TV for us other than the odd thing on Comedy Central. Our poor Replay is feeling very neglected.

Will I be hopeless lost since I never watched Season 1? I have watched small parts of it before, but was always put off by the large amount of f-bombs being thrown around. It seemed to be a bit anachronistic to me.

And other parts...

Rent it on Netflix if you can, GD. It's the best TV show in years. I think it's the best Western ever made. And it's worth it for Ian McShane's performance alone, though everyone on the show is amazing.

Plus, as my friend Mike likes to say, "Deadwood: Making C**T Safe for America".

The cussing is brilliant fun!

They're going to run the first season one more time this week. Go to hbo.com for details. And get your TiVo (or DVR (PVR?) of your choice).

I think people cussed back then, especially the "dirty rotten types" like the ones that cuss like crazy on the show... I think it's just a different view of the old west.
