SWEARENGEN: "Sometimes I wish we could just hit 'em over the head, rob 'em and throw their bodies in the creek."
TOLLIVER: "But that would be wrong."
For the first time since it originally aired back in 2004-05-06, I've been rewatching Deadwood from the beginning. What a show, among the finest of the many fine HBO productions over the years.
Acting -- amazing, led by the incomparable Ian McShane. Writing ... direction ... setting -- all of it spot-on.
Back in '04, many viewers were put off by the swearing. Given what takes place on regular network TV now, it seems almost a quaint complaint today.
Hard to believe HBO and the cast never came through with a fourth season -- or at least the two movies the network practically promised to do.
As Swearengen would say: "C@cks&ck#rs!"
