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.

This really is one of if not the best written shows out there. Made the mistake of re-watching the first season and a half while watching Succession's last season, and while Succession is a masterpiece.... it's shine just doesn't compare to how immaculately Deadwood moves between characters and scenes. It's just an incredible dance of motivations that works so fuckin' well.

Will have to pick up the Milch bio.
