I just finished binge watching this show after years of meaning to. I've never been a fan of Westerns, though I can no longer claim that. Since I'm a Fear the Walking Dead fan, and two of the actors from that are in Deadwood, I figured this was probably a good time to watch it.I LOVED this show! It was so well-made I felt I could actually feel what it must've been like living in those times. Not only were the sets incredible and the costumes out of this world, but the lighting through the whole thing made me keenly aware throughout the entire thing, that they did NOT have electricity. Now, as far as the acting...Robin Weigert as Calamity Jane was probably the single most entertaining performance in a show I've ever experienced. Hilarious, pitiful, brilliant...for me the show would've been good without her, but it wouldn't have been par excellence. What a chameleon that actress is! All the other actors were good, too, and believable in their roles. Tricky giving Garret Dillahunt two separate rolls, possibly thinking no one would notice, but I did right away. I almost thought it was three roles, since Jeff Cahill, who played Crop Ear, looks very similar to Dillahunt. So hoping there really is going to be a movie!

... View MoreThis C.unt of a show is nothing more than a C.unting swear-fest. Its the worst C.unt F.ucking show ever made in this C.unt of a world. Love-joy is a F.ucking C.unt (an understatement),he play's in goal's for FC C.unting arse F.ucker's united every f.ucking tuesday. I thought the C.unt was dead wood just prior to the time that this F.ucking S.hit came out..., but unfortunately the C.unting bastard was still alive!!Timothy Elephant man is a C.unting great C.unt as well, almost as much as king of C.unt's..., Love- joy!
... View MoreThis western is definitely well written apart from one major off-putting factor where they've gone over board with the venomous language! Admittedly in those hard day's the language would have been bad but the writers have overstretched in this case. Timothy Olyphant has a unique way of speaking volumes with his eyes, maybe one of the superb abilities he has as a great actor and provider of true escapism! Keeping an aspect of romance amid all the muck and filthy hardship those pioneers endured is an important aspect of any good western or any other genre. Ian Mcshane does a great job as the hard done by survivor who has no moral compass whatsoever. This show has the entire combination of any good show-namely..... the irritating , annoying, kind and upright moralistic, the honourable and the poor downtrodden characters thAt play with our emotion like a violin!
