In Reply to: HBO's Deadwood posted by Buckeye on March 22, 2004 at 18:54:56:
It only reinforced my epigram that we have become a nation of set designers.
The cussin' was so contrived and inauthentic-sounding, whether or not folks really talked that way, that one immediately thought, "Mamet!"As Julia Louis-Dreyfuss (playing herself) said on Curb Your Enthusiam, "I don't want to do a show on fuckin' ABC. I can't say 'fuck' on ABC."
However, Keith Carradine as Wild Bill Hickcok was terrific.

Follow Ups:
I like the "shallow, yet demented" line, Clark, and agree.
However, I'm going to take a wait and see attitude with Deadwood...and I will definitely see it next Sunday.Good point on Keith C. as Wild Bill. I also thought Ian McShane (Lovejoy of Brit TV) added a nice touch of evil to the proceedings.
The swearing was just so ovrr the top, it has to have been the writer's intent to parody this way of speaking.
Thanks,
Gary
