TV is Superior to Movies - Deadwood



If you've never seen DEADWOOD you totally miss the delight of having a story build over the course of three seasons. Created by David Milch, the show is an excellent example of creating very specific, believable characters, putting them into situations that make sense, and watching what happens.

The dialogue, while utterly profane, is very sophisticated and poetic. With DVR, my wife and I must have ran back and forth each episode at least twice (my wife's favorite line: "I'm off to suss the trim")

Seasons: 3
Episodes: 36
Status: Dead like Wild Bill
