Maybe I should watch it now that I am going through a phase of watching Westerns and playing Red Dead Redemption.
Cool.

Thanks, man.

Are you a big fan of Westerns in general, or just going through a phase?

Well, I used to hate them. The first time I finally decided to actually watch one was about 2 years ago. Since then I've enjoyed most that I've watched. That one movie was Tombstone by the way.

Tombstone is very cool. As a rule, I tend not to like Westerns much. There are exceptions: Tombstone, High Noon, Butch Cassidy. But I think that's the main reason I've avoided Deadwood for so long.

However, LOST got me reading Stephen King's Dark Tower series and now I find I'm very drawn to the Western genre. That along with mulitple recommendations has me very interested to give Deadwood a spin. Especially since all my Deadwood friends are also LOST fans.

Thats cool. I really need to start reading more. I usually defer to TV and Video Games, but I love reading. I can never get myself to do it though.

Also I only got about 6 to 8 episodes into Deadwood before I just stopped watching it.

I believe the last episode I saw was the one after "Reconnoitering the Rims."
Reconnoitering the Rim was the third episode. I'm with BL on this one. Deadwood is all kinds of awesome. Awesome characters, awesome acting, awesome 'gritty-ness' , awesome sets. About the only thing that isn't awesome is the writing. The writing is absolutely phenomenal. Not just the plot, but rather the dialog is pure, profanity laden poetry.

McShane as Al is by far my favorite character of any TV show. But there are other great characters, and even the minor characters are memorable. Dave (the racist), Leon, Richardson ("You're pretty"), Tom Nuttall, Silas, Ellsworth. Hell, I even like the "Soap with a prize inside!" guy.

I never used to read. Hated it, in fact. Something clicked right around 2003/2004 and my appetite for literature increased exponentially. Can't get enough anymore. Fiction, Non Fiction, Essays, Plays, I'll read anything.

It's a little sad how much LOST directed me in my reading tastes though. Many of the books I've read over the last few years were because of LOST.

Ahh then I am mistaken. I am at least 6 episodes in.

Thats pretty funny. I have probably read 5 novels over the last 5 months, each one taking me less than 2 days, yet I can't get myself to read more. Worse is I have about 15 books that I haven't read that I really want to read.

DO IT!!!

Seriously, dude, it seems like you and I have some very similar tastes in entertainment. In just the last week I've recommended Porcupine Tree, A Game Of Thrones, and now Deadwood. So that's music, literature, and TV. I feel like I should make a movie recommendation. Have you seen Memento?

Seriously though, I'm always interested in expanding my entertainment horizons. Hopefully you'll get the same enjoyment from these recommendations that I have.

Thank you very much. And probably that’s all either of us needs to say on that subject ever again.

I have seen Memento. Classic.

This thread today has gotten me pumped up. I'm really stoked to give some of these shows a go. Thanks for the recommendations.

Add it to the list! It's short, too - I think there are 14 episodes total, which is an incredible shame.

I'm sure I'll get blasted for it, but it's my personal favorite tv show of all time...
