Fantastic, with an unfortunate side effect

This could be the best western I've ever seen. Not that I've seen many, mind you, and being from New England I'm new to the whole midwest theme concept; but this show is brilliant. It's hysterically funny and touching and clever; and the writing is absolutely fantastic.

There is however a side effect to watching this show: you will begin to notice a distinct smattering of pepper in your vocabulary. They use tremendous amounts of foul language in particularly creative ways; it's part of the charm but unfortunately rather infectious. I'd sword off swearing for several years now, not out of any great moral feeling but out of a general desire to improve my vocabulary and not be perceived as a foul-mouthed mental midget. Since beginning to watch the show I have regressed dramatically, catching slippage several times a day.

Oh well. Hopefully it's a temporary aberration and will pass when we're done with season 3. And it's still one of the few perfect shows in the history of the TV.

As a point of reference, the other shows I count as perfect include Dexter season 1, Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, Firefly, and Journeyman.

As good as it gets...

...for a TV series. After having seen many of the other HBO productions one can defenately spot out certain elements that recurr in their series, whether it be Sopranos, OZ, The Wire etc. Nevertheless even if one was to cut out the foul language, nudity and violence one would still end up with one hell of a TV show. One that no major network like NBC, ABC, WB or CBS would be able to pull off....or at least haven't to this day.

dead wood

i loved this i used the first season from a guy at worked i enjoyed it so much i bought all 3 seasons the only reason i did not give it all 5 stars is it was going to run 4 seasons so i did not like the way it ended at the end of the 3rd season it left you hanging but it was still a good show

Dead Wood 1st season

This is a good Western story.But it has a whole lot of swearing & some nudity. Do not buy this if you get offended by hearing the F word every two to five minutes.
