Deadwood: The Complete Series is $74.99 at Amazon
Deadwood: The Complete Series is currently $74.99 (don't know for how long) ... the 1-3 weeks projected ship date doesn't bother me (it will give my Visa a rest).

Also, when HBO killed the series I seem to recall a lot of plotlines were left dangling. Some specials were rumored to wrap things up but they never materialized.

But language wise it makes the Sopranos look like a Disney cartoon, & the dialogue is very Shakespear-ian & misleadingly complex, which turns a lot of people off. It has the greatest villain in the history of TV IMO & is very much a re-invention of the Western genre in a dark realistic way that has never really been portrayed before. All the shows you mention you like are modern shows with contemporary themes, so you may not like Deadwood. If you are open minded & want to see some of the best drama & writing TV has ever produced, then give it a shot.

Kind of pissed I already have the sets as this complete series is about the width of one of those sets... Oh well.

Might try the library if you want to see a few shows before you buy.
Both my library in two different states have the complete series for check out.
thats how I watched it.
I didn't care for all the swearing,way over the top.And I'm no prune,I try to say one bad word a day.:-)
Besides that,great series.
