Which channel has Deadwood?

HBO. For one more episode. *sniff!!!*

Also, ELSWORTH!!! NOOOOOOO!!!!!

I think my reaction was, FUCKERS!

Also, could the theatre people just go away already? We don't have that much time left and they're wasting what little we have.

Amen. I've been enjoying some of Brian Cox's scenes, but not the ones with the troupe and not enough to make up for the time-suck the rest of the troupe scenes have been.

I did like the talent show a few weeks back, but that's because it allowed for some good character moments from the townspeople.

Heh, as I said in the Movies thread (in whitefont), I expelled a very loud "FUCK!!!!" at my TV when Ellsworth got shot. On rewatch, I wanted to reach in an pull him out of the way.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I don't get the premium channels. Really I'm just here for the cursing.

I have premium cable, and I don't really watch the shows. I find most of them too bleak and/or the characters too unpleasant.

move out and draw fire

Shiny!

I ain't even NAFDA, but I like hearing about Deadwoood and tend to watch premium series on DVD.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Despite its darkness, Deadwood is one of the most optimistic shows on television.

Plus, oddly hilarious.

Punishingly Intricate

So hilarious! And there are so many moments of quiet grace and beauty. And celebrations of unlikely friendships, especially this season.
