Yes, as a matter of fact- immensely entertaining. This is one of my favorite threads in this forum, and in case you missed it, I'm its creator. Regardless of your feelings about profanity, you seem to be missing something that just about everyone else here knows, and that's that I'll post whatever I Goddamned want, whenever I Goddamned please, and if anyone here doesn't like it, well, that's just too Goddamned bad. Any more Goddamned questions? As an old girlfriend of mine used to say, your taste is in your mouth. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

I’ve never seen an episode, but I absolutely love Westerns; especially now that I find myself playing RedDead2 on XBox. Still don’t have HBO, but this thread and the discussion about the upcoming movie has me motivated to find this series and watch it post-haste. ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

You sir have great taste. I dearly miss the show. Still laugh my ass off thinking of when Calamity Jane would wake up from being pissed drunk and shout out "CockSucker!" ___________________________________Sigforum - port in the fake news storm.____________Be kind to the Homeless.

Had forgotten all about this. Thanks for bumping it, para! Just added to my list on HBO Max. "America is at that awkward stage.

Thanks… missed the original. Agree … fucking poetry in motion; Shakespearean sonnets… "Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." ~Robert A. Heinlein | |||

I'm not a prude and believe there's a definite place for profanity, but I watched Deadwood one time and it was like a bunch of teenage boys who have just discovered the holy grail of profanity. It was like profanity for profanity's sake, not for the movie's sake. Never watched it again. | |||

Nope. Don't get me wrong: I understand just where you're coming from. The first time my wife and I watched it, I think we got through the first episode and even I, who employs above-average salty language, himself, said "WTH?!?", and passed. But we kept hearing good things about the series, so, when we could find nothing else to interest us at the time, we decided to see if we could get past the language. It turned out we could. Since then I've read some articles about the series. While the exact profanity used in the series isn't period-accurate, the impact on people in our day-and-age is the same impact as the salty language they used back then would've had on people back then. As is, according to historians, the frequency of its use in a place like Deadwood. See parabellum's post, twelve posts back, for an explanation of why they used the language they did.
If you can't handle the language you can't handle the language. But you're missing a pretty darn good series. My wife and I watched the movie, last night. We felt they did a really good job of it.

Now all y’all got me rewatching DW … again. "Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." ~Robert A. Heinlein | |||

True story- Back when my ex and I first started dating we watched it together. From episode one, I always called her loopy cunt. As a term of endearment. Through the years she called me cocksucker and I called her loopy cunt. Only in good times. During disagreements I only called her by name. Today, I find that I am now using cocksucker in many ways. Work, mainly. I watch DW every year. It will be and always has been a poetic story and I find myself quoting it most often. It surpassed Tombstone for me. From the git-go I was never offended. But I do find myself wishing Wu lived near me....for working reasons of course. I believe the fee was 5 dollars? ___________________ "He who is without oil, shall throw the first rod" Compressions 9.5:1 | |||

Saw this thread bump and immediately had a mental image of Swidgen trying to explain BUMP to Wu. Lots of poking the computer screen and they said cocksucker a lot. Now I need to watch some Deadwood tonight. | |||
