Got it and yeah. A friend elsewhere said that they should just go ahead and "Mornin' Ralph/Mornin' Sam" each other.

My favorite moment between them is still "And this must be the lovely *Mrs.* Herc" from, I think season one, even if it's a Clockers shout-out. And I still think there's something to Herc/Carver, you know. Loved Bodie, who's all of what, nineteen, complaining about "the young un's work ethic" BWAH!(I just really like Bodie, though. There's something about the guy.) I suspect that Teacher!Pres might become my woobie. Also loved them sitting there looking at that big pile of paper and being like "Anybody miss Pres?" ETA: One thing I don't love? Trying to watch when my brother's around. Because he imitates how the cornerboys talk, for one, and I think that has Racial Overtones as well as being just annoying.

Tell him to stick to Stringer and Prop Joe imitations with the "Adjourn your asses" and "For a cold-ass crew of gangsters, y'all carried it like Republicans and shit."

I just really like Bodie, though. There's something about the guy.

Even McNulty loves Bodie.

"Aw, go on, I've been dining out on that story for months." Yeah, that'd be cool, if he could learn to appreciate them...well, I was gonna say, like I do, but considering my blog has Domino Sugars as a backdrop, that might be too much to ask. Normal levels of appreciation might be nice, though.

Survey up at HBO re: interest in a fourth season of Deadwood:

I don't know if I believe that's really HBO. Was there a link to it from their site?


Strega - Sep 11, 2006 6:29:00 pm PDT #161 of 7329

It's legit. The link comes from an email HBO sent out to people who'd signed up for their newsletter. When Carnivale ended there was something just like it. And I do mean just like it; some of the answers don't apply to Deadwood, so I think it's just a generic form they use for market research.

I don't expect anything to come of it, but it did give me the opportunity to write, in regards to anything I disliked about Deadwood, "That you cancelled it, you cocksuckers."

Ha! My wording was very similar.
