Deadwood - "Amateur Night" - 8/06/06
#2
Well the Earps didn't stick around long.
There were more great one-liners in this ep than any other, loved it.
Something extremely soothing about Al singing there at the end.
I think shit's finally going to start hitting the fan. I just hope Al doesn't end up too screwed over just yet.

Awww Al wanted to be in amateur night. Jane was hilarious with her Gigantor and eclipse rants. I could not stop laughing at that entire scene.

I thought maybe the Earps would stick around and help bullock. best episode in a while. hopefully some good action follows next ep. show needs some more sex scenes like the first two seasons.

What the hell was EB's problem with Richardson performing?
And why did Al get pissed and hit Johnny when he understood Woo?
Oh, and a big for the Wire season 4 preview.

2. Sy freaked Jane out in season 1 when Jane tried to confront him. Jane basically broke down in fear of him.

"It's me"
"Who's me? The fucking eclipse"
I thought it was a pretty good episode. The stuff with Wu and the conversation between Jerry and Adams was good
Bringing in the Earps was pointless.
I thought they were making the point by Aunt Lou trying to keep Odell away from Hearst that she knew he was trying to scam Hearst, Hearst was to smart to fall for it, and he would have Odell killed

Are we to assume that Herst had him killed? If so the motive was not all that clear.

If Odell was trying to run a scam - Hearst gave him no $, and how would it hurt Hearst to send a Geologist to evaluate the claim? Which is what he was going to do. This isn't like they were buying this thing sight unseen, so why kill him?
Overall, I think that part of the story line was unclear and a waste of time.

But we see that he is quirky, not someone that is a cut throat, going into towns like a Viking raping, killing, an pillaging everything he sees. He came into Deadwood with the Captain, not an army, and tried to force his way on people in a more peaceful manor. When that didn't work, now the Vikings are coming into town.

I kept laughing at Morgan Earp because they played him as such a fucking nitwit. Add that the kid playing him couldn't act for shit.
I love it when Bullock grabs people by the ears. Then Udder punches them through the cell.

We could be in for a long wait for the movies. I was reading a story about Milch on Yahoo and it mentioned if his pilot about the surfing family gets picked up he won't begin writing the movies until May of next year.
