Really? I hadn't realized that Any of the women were, aside from Mrs. Bullock and Calamity Jane? Interesting.

Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Well, I didn't go looking for more names, but you're right that I didn't see any of the women besides those. I was more surprised that nearly all of the men were real people. With all the same names. I had no idea that the town of Deadwood was so notable that they would pull specific people for the show.
WHAT THE FUCK ELLSWORTH NOOOOO.
{{{P-C}}}
oh, yes, I'd forgotten that part. not good at all.
I totally forgot that I was actually vaguely spoiled about that because of something Plei said in a post. I've been mainlining all weekend to get through the series.
And then there was all that tense music and everyone was running around with guns and Trixie shot Hearst and I didn't know who else was going to get it. Hearst better get murderized soon, the dirty bastard.
WHAT THE FUCK ELLSWORTH NOOOOO.
Yeah, that pretty much summed up Deadwood nation's reaction. Poor noble bastard.
And I just finished. I think I liked the third season more than the second since it had a very obvious villain, and I liked how that caused everyone to band together against him. Even Tolliver, by the end, seemed to want to shoot the bastard, but then Hearst just rode off, basically having won Deadwood.
Wait, I didn't even think about that until just now. Hearst WON. His plan WORKED. What the hell. I know there was supposed to be another season or some movies to wrap the series up, but as it stands...dammit! That's not a good ending!
Except I do love the final image of the series. Because I was just thinking that what defines Al Swearengen and sets him apart from genuinely evil fucks like Hearst and Tolliver is that he cleans up his own mess.
He may have fucked up his life flatter than hammered shit, but he stands before you today beholden to no human cocksucker.
Also, Sol and Trixie are the cutest yet least romantic couple ever.
