wow I'm amazed that HBO came out with a new season in barely a year. I had no clue it was season 2. Luckily my tv show download script caught it.

Yeah, it's one of Mr. Wu's kind.

But I didn't ask what no fuckin' Celestial was. I need to know what a God damn c0cksuckin' Hooplehead is. THAT is the fucking question at hand.

Does anyone else not like this idea? I mean, he looks different and all, but you can still tell it was the guy who played McCall. It isn't like McCall was some background piece in the series either; he got considerable screentime. Are they hoping people won't notice?

Just had a chance to watch this.

Good episode

Swearingen's impersonation of E.B. was hilarious as was Jane's brief apperance.

I see hoopleheads, some of them don't even know they are hoopleheads.

So who is more of the main star of this series? Ian McShane of Timotyh Olyphant?

McShane gets more TV time but I just feel that Olyphant is the star.

It was supposed to be Olyphant but the writers quickly, and rightly, realized that Ians character was the true star of the story.

They really are doing a good job of his character. While it is obvious that he is the real star, they never play him in that light. It's like they know naming him as the lead would be unwise, as once the cool supporting character becomes the official lead, he is no longer as cool.

I'm never a fan of the powers that be trying to pull the wool over our eyes, or hoping we won't remember. It's silly but what are you gonna do? I love the show too much to let it affect me.

Not only is Swearengen's character more intriguing than Bullock's, but I think McShane's got way more presence than Olyphant in each of their respective roles. Timothy plays Seth very 2 dimensional, whereas Ian's Al has many sides and they always seem to be present at all times. You never know what you're going to get. Swearengen is the reason I fell in love with Deadwood, and although it's a great show, I might not come back without him. Kinda be like The Wire with no Mcnulty or The Sopranos with no Tony. EEwwww.

Bandits, they used to rob stage coaches and pretty much everyone else they could.

Yeah, i'm pretty sure hooplehead is the deadwood version of dumbass.

rewatched it last night and was reminded of my favorite new euphemism courtesy of Cy:

"he was soaking his pecker in the c**t-brine of another."

So Cy is going to be taking 60% of Joanie's profits? That defeats her whole purpose of not wanting Cy to help, and now he is pissed off about it.

I wonder if the day will come when Cy and Al have a major falling out? They don't seem to be enemies right now, but they also don't seem like the kind that trust one another too much either.

Can't believe that line didn't make it here until this page.

And actually, it was "Getting his cock pickled in the c**t brine of another."

The "pickling" is the part of the comment that makes the "brine" make sense.

They hate each other. That was clear from the first time Cy (Sy? Sigh?) showed up. The only reason they haven't made major moves against each other is because they knew it would probably mean both of them would end up with nothing, or dead.

Either that or it could set the stage for a Fistful of Dollars type setup. Let's get Eastwood in here!

That was fucking hysterical. Loved the fight too.

I remembered her from Jack & Jill and as the stigmata girl in that episode of Nip/tuck.
