Interesting statistics about the HBO series Deadwood **NSFW** Warning- This thread has a Wu Rating of 9.6/10
The Number of Fucks in Deadwood

Total fucks in series: 2980
Cumulative series FPM: 1.56

Total fucks in Season Three: 1050
Average fucks per episode: 87.5
Cumulative Season Three FPM: 1.73

Total fucks in Season Two: 1099
Average fucks per episode: 91.6
Cumulative Season Two FPM: 1.76

Total fucks in Season One: 831
Average fucks per episode: 69.3
Cumulative Season One FPM: 1.23

The episode with the highest number of Fucks is from Season 3, episode 28, Full Faith and Credit, with an episode total of 137 Fucks, for an average of 2.97 Fucks per minute.
With an utterance of 7 Cocksuckers in this episode, we end up with a Fucks to Cocksuckers ratio of 19.6:1

The runner up is episode 10 from Season 1, Mr. Wu, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
This episode has a total of 133 Fucks, for an average of 2.46 FPM.
Sadly, the data for the FtC ratio is not available for season 1. This is particularly tragic given the title of this episode. I'll have to queue up the episode and see if I can obtain the answer.

I tried counting once, and completely lost track, so these stats are great!

That rant is such a classic. I wish they would have wrapped that show up properly. I have watched it from beginning to end numerous times.

When my old job would piss me off I would sit back and watch Deadwood's Favorite Word:

I guess the writers really give a fuck about the script.

I just got the wife to log in to the TV with her Amazon account. Been about 3 or 4 years since I watched the series, time for a redo.

The left arrow key on my keyboard just got a good workout on that segment. Big Grin

Fuck it, I'm going to start watching Deadwood again. Guess it's better to watch it a second go while it's still somewhat fresh in the mind.

Yup. It's time to watch Deadwood once again. We've got all three seasons on Blu-ray. Smile

Yeah, this was on the list of shows to rewatch. I think Wu sealed the deal on Deadwood being next.

Ironically, I'm watching the series right now for the first time. Just started season 2. This thread is sheading new light on the endeavor.

Has anyone counted the number of bare boobs shown on the show? Big Grin

Great to have this information. I've always wondered about how many times these words were uttered in the series. I think I know what I'll be watching while I'm on the exercise bike next.

Yeah, that's the scene in Mr. Wu, where Wu is trying to tell Al that Wu's drug courier was killed and robbed. For a few seconds, the scene turns into Abbot & Costello's "Who's on first?" bit.

Al: Who stole the dope??

Wu: (confused) WU????

Al: WHO!! WHO, YOU IGNORANT COCKSUCKER! WHO STOLE THE DOPE??!

Wu: (deliberately, so as to be clear) COCKSUCKAH!!

...or to that effect. Big Grin
