yes. It is. Second the show is fiction. Some of the departed on the show are not real people. Some are. How about not posting anything that could possibly be a spoiler in a thread labelled NO SPOILERS.

You having a hard time with no spoilers. How about removing any names.
I removed it but everyone I mentioned was an actual person that passed away there. That can't be a "spoiler" any more than saying Lincoln was assassinated in a theater.
...there's several more that I left off but I thought those were more primary.

that was one of the historical inaccuracies. I just didn't know there was a reason behind it. lol.
I'll really never get over Deadwood canceled for Milch to write John from Cincinnati.

That's redundant.

Is that true? It ended pretty abruptly.

Powers Boothe daughter was in show. Played prostitute but 1 of few not show boobs. Smokeshow too. Very rewatchable series.

Deadwood is so much fun. Outshined a bit by the other hbo shows of its era but truly a gem
Someone in the house turned on Netflix’s remake of Little House on the Prarie and my first thought was “based on my recollection of deadwood, everyone in this show should be a lot sweatier and dirty given the era and attire”

I think deadwood is perfect with three seasons and the movie. I’m not really interested iin watching a civilized version of life there which statehood would soon bring. It was the building organization out of chaos that made the show great.

Just started myself. They sure do say "frick" a lot.

There was a website once that tallied the FPMs…”fricks Per Minute.” I think one episode had 199.

Milch didn't cancel it. Deadwood was very expensive and the ratings weren't good enough for the cost. Milch then pitched his idea for John in Cincinnati to HBO and the went with it. I guess I should have worded it better that I will never forgive HBO for cancelling Deadwood then green lighting the pile of trash that was John in Cincinnati.

quote:I think you need to be more objective in looking at David Milch’s career. He had a long good run on the cop shows but deadwood was his first (and only, really) solo original production that was any good. It was milch that wanted to move on to John in Cincinnati which was entirely conceived and written by him, and it was terrible. Same for lucky after that.
then green lighting the pile of trash that was John in Cincinnati.
On top of all that, milch gambled away all his money at the horse track and then came down with dementia. He was suffering from it badly during the making of the movie.
Don’t be sad deadwood is gone, be happy it existed at all because it was and remains a miracle of television

Does the movie pick up after season 3?
Posted on 7/25/26 at 11:11 am to MorbidTheClown
Everyone is almost 20 years older. Lol. It picks up at a later point.

Some people don't like the final season and I say they suck cock by choice. It ended the only way it could have ended. No spoilers folks.
And the cocksuckers on YT took down one of the funniest things I've ever seen "deadwood with a laugh track". It was hysterical. There's like one reference to it on YT it's only like 3 seconds of that masterpiece.

The actor that played Dan Dority also played Cameron Diaz's special brother in There's Something About Mary.
