Deadwood

I got season 1 of Deadwood for 12 bucks at Walmart
I haven't watched it yet, and I would like to know how good a show it is and if it's worth getting season 2 right now :D
 
I highly recommend it. Watch the first episode or two, judge for yourself, and head back to the store for Season 2 while it's cheap. ;)
 
Yeah I'll definitely see if they still have some cheap ones
I always meant to watch it. I absolutely loved Ian McShane in Kings
Also when does Brad Dourif show up? He's another fav

I bought it sight unseen like that as well. However, I do know some people who really liked it so felt it was worth the blind buy based on their appreciation of the show.

I've got about 6-7 other season sets, not to mention movies, lined up in front of it though. Maybe by the time I get to Deadwood S2&3 will go on sale also.
 
Brad Dourif is great. He's the local Doctor for Deadwood. I think he shows up in the second or third episode. He's one of the semi-main characters. He's in pretty much the whole series.
 
Deadwood is fantastic; probably one of the best series of the last few years. I suggest watching the extras first, as the writer explains why he wrote it the way he did, using modern curse words as opposed to the curse words of the time.

The writing, the characters, the actors are all just brilliant and it comes together so well. I adore this show, and I usually don't care much for Westerns, in general.

Ian McShane and Timothy Olyphant are perfect in their roles.
 
I bought the series set a year or so ago without having previously seen any episodes. By the time I was done watching the show, I was damn glad I had picked it up.

I liked it the first season, but I was kind of disappointed in the last season, I felt like it was kind of anti-climatic.

The other issue I had with it was the way in which they had the characters speak. Frankly in the last couple of seasons, I had no clue what was going on about half the time.
 
Oh, I think the language is fairly clear...

(NOT safe for work!)

Yes it is worth it, and get season two as well. The only down side is it is over before you know it.
