Richardson Thread 8/13 (aka Deadwood)

[Dids]

Richardson clearly invented the post it note. 3M owes that dude.

Really enjoyed this ep. I was slightly thrown off by the stuff with Langrish, but I'm assuming it's driving somewhere.

Loved seeing Al take charge, and even Charlie kinda begrudingly taking orders from him.

Have it on TIVO so haven't seen it yet, but I just wanted to say that this season of Deadwood is probably the best single season of any TV show I have ever seen. I don't understand how we can get 20 pages of Lost and Sopranos posts yet only a few for Deadwood. I guess people don't know what they're missing.

Swearengen is completely bad ass. I thoroughly enjoyed him kicking the [censored] out of Hearst's guy, and then slitting his throat.

and then thoroughly messing with hearst.

I love yankton's "I didn't remember that part of the story". and of course Jane being Jane.

Definitely another amazing episode. I had low expectations for Deadwood Season three (Season Two left me pretty bored and indifferent), but this whole season has been gripping.

Hard to believe only two episodes left... Interesting to see how they wrap things up...

Of course, if you Wikipedia "Deadwood" and read the history of the town, there are some pretty significant things left to happen to the town that will affect the major characters, and there have been hints about it in the earlier part of the season... I'll be curious if that's part of the finale... or left alone.

That, and jumping off his balcony. He's a ninja.

I've been resisting doing this.

You guys are aware that this is the final two episodes of the series, right? HBO stopped production. There is no season 4.

There will be two 2-hour movies afterwards.

I've always assumed this season would see Hearst acquire the Garrett claim but ultimately leave Deadwood to remain Bullock and Swearengen's town. It will be interesting though to see if they'll have Hearst burn the town to the ground in his exit.

My favorite line:
While wrapping up the Pinkerton guy's body, one of Swearengen's men saying something like: "That's the longest a rug has lasted here."
