I may be in the minority, but this show has overtaken Sopranos as the second best show on HBO right now, behind Six Feet Under. The swearing has gotten to me a little though, it's almost like they curse just for the sake of cursing. Kind of like a teenager who just learned to curse is writing the scripts, but the stories are enganging and it actually makes you look forward to the next week's episode to see what will happen next. Timothy Olyphant has the "pissed off at someone" look down being that he gets pissed off at someone every single week and Ian McShane is the man...It's amazing to see his transformation from the Happy-go-Lucky Lovejoy(for people who remember this excellent series on A&E) to Al Swearengen, one of the biggest bastards on television in some time. Great stuff

Kids, this is a message from your Uncle Billy. Don't buy drugs. Wait until you're a rock star, and they give them to you for free!

I think Deadwood is HBO's number 1 show right now... Six Feet Under bores the shit out of me. Sopranos isn't what it used to be... I look forward to Deadwood more than any other show

I never got into Six Feet Under. I caught 2 or 3 episodes, but wasn't hooked.
As for the other two shows, it all depends on the episode. One week Deadwood will be okay and the Sopranos will be great, and the next Deadwood will be great and the Sopranos will bore me to tears. The past two weeks are a great example of this.
I'm still holding out hope for Tony and the gang to really interest me, but as it stands now Seth Bullock and Al Swearengen are slightly in the lead for better overall show.

If Jane said 'cocksucker(s)' one more time I would've fallen in love. Though it was bordering on annoying.
On that note now that I've seen the show...

Done. I've narrowed it down to two candidates.
Calamity Jane

or
Trixie the whore

Which would you prefer?
I'll take Jane. Trixie frightens me.
However I want to know why this one hasn't applied???

I just hope I don't wind up with the Dead Man's Hand.

Oh yeah question. What the hell was wrong with the dude that came to the Bella Union and got all sick? Did they say?
I think he is infected with the virus.
