I rewatched the show earlier this year after reading milch's autobiography, which I do recommend if you're a fan even though deadwood is just a small part of his large and heroin filled career. It's probably the best show, so yeah everyone should post more about it every which way

Al Swearingen passing that loving stone. Dan just viciously beating that enforcer, with the eye bit.

I just love the dialogue and everyone is so eloquent and the cursing is so profane but every now and then I think of what it actually would have sounded like with a bunch of ‘49ers all yokeling it up like Yosemite Sam.

The fact that Dan spends the next 2-3 episodes just absolutely hosed up and recovering from that fight was something you so rarely see as well (though Al being absolutely destroyed by the fight with Seth he technically won, and then the look on his face when he realizes that Seth has just been happily going about his business ever since barely showing any signs of damage was another great little bit).

I’ve been collecting my favorite quotes and dialogue scenes. This one made me LOL to beat the band, and I had to rewatch the scene several times. It’s from season one, Doc finds Jane leaning face-first into a wall, drunker than poo poo. Doc Cochrane: I been lettin’ it go. But if the idea is for you to drink more and more until I say something… I am hereby officially saying, I wish you would stop loving’ drinking. Jane *extremely slurred speech* I have NO fuckin’ ideas as far as you say one fuckin’ thing… about anything I do or don’t. Far as… drinking… or where I stand or nap, or any other fuckin’ thing concerning me! Or go, or leave, or don’t, or when… Doc Cochrane: Alright, Jane. Jane: …so you can go gently caress yerself, and don’t try and hasten anyone anywhere, ‘cuz everyone follows their own fuckin’ pace, and don’t try and loving’ hasten them! Robin Weigert was simply incredible in this show! MrMojok fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Apr 28, 2023 |

I finally convinced my wife to watch Warrior with me, after I loved it so much watching it by myself two years ago. I sold it to her by saying it feels like a cross between Banshee and Deadwood (two shows we watched together and both loved), and she is hooked, four episodes in. Warrior isn't nearly as much of a masterpiece as Deadwood, but it is fantastic. It is set in San Francisco during the same era, and deals a lot with classism, racism, and xenophobia, particularly between the established Irish working class and recent Chinese immigrants, the police, and the wealthy ruling class exploiting them all.

Rewatched this over the pandemic and agree with the threads sentiments. Shows the best. By season three just the visual of Hearst breaking a hole in the hotel wall so he can lord over the town same as Al does from across the street, perfect. I watched it with some people who had never seen it before, and they loved it. Might have hyped the movie too much though, as when it was over they didn't feel it was as good a wrap up as I'd made it out to be. I still think it's a great nightcap on the show, Al's death is perfect, but ah well. Also wow I did not realize you see all of Nick Offerman in the first couple episodes.

I’ve not seen the whole show, only parts of the second season, but it was great. It was originally supposed to be a vehicle for Bruce Lee as I recall, then after his death it got shelved for 40 years.

One of my favorite moments of the show was in s1e4 “Here Was a Man” which is of course most famous for being the one where McCall kills Hickok, and ending with the dude riding into town whooping and hollering and swinging around the decapitated head of a Native American, and the overall feeling that the situation in the camp is descending into chaos. But another key thing that happens is Andy riding into camp sick, and the moment I was referring to, is Doc Cochran’s examination of him. Andy complains of horrible back pain, but of course Doc knows enough to see he’s suffering from the early symptoms of smallpox. But since the word “plague” is verboten, because nobody wants to cause a huge panic, Doc, in the presence of Tolliver, handles it thusly: Doc: (hesitatingly) I guess… it’s his back he landed on, when he fell. Andy: My back is split and broken! Cy: I don’t know what he landed on. Who said he fell? Doc: Course… if little pussy sores rise up on his trunk and face… more likely he’s got other trouble. And Andy’s moans, followed by Doc’s constraint refrain “I’m gonna give you somethin’ to ease that” It also has the murder of Alma’s husband, an event that sets a bunch of things in motion, one whose consequences reverberate throughout the rest of the series. As well as Hickok’s “Listen to the thunder” speech to Alma, and of course, his great monologue that ends with “Will you let me go to hell the way I want to.” And finally, this great scene, which is unfortunately incomplete in the this clip, where McCall is getting himself worked up at Hickok. And simultaneously showing what a moron he is, by trying to use the same insult Hickok used against him, and completely botching it. https://youtu.be/X3hEFkZxu9I Overall I think if it’s not my single favorite episode, it’s definitely top-three

Pattonesque posted:some good impersonations in Deadwood knew exactly what this was before i clicked on it.  I know James Gandolfini and Bryan Cranston won all the acting awards during this era for the "petulant complicated shithead male protagonist" shows, and of course they were great in their roles, but the combination of Deadwood's writing and McShane's acting really makes Al one for the ages.
