Deadwood
« on: August 19, 2007, 03:00:25 AM »
Was one of the best TV programmes ever. Awesome acting, dialogue, cast, set, costumes, and plot! It got cancelled because most Americans didn't like the 'revisionist' nature of the wild west. They much prefer the sanitised 'John Wayne' version, where whites are always the good guys, people never swore, had sex, or treated animals badly. Oh, and all 'injuns' are evil ::)

Best show ever? Could very well be.

Had it all, at least.
