Reply to comment by mburke6 in Calamity Jane, is a legend from Wild West. She was known as a sharpshooter, raconteur, and frontierswoman. She was known to be a hard-drinking crossdresser as she always preferred to dress like a man. She was one of the most popular characters of the West. This portrait was taken around the 1880s. by sandboxvet

Just restarted Deadwood last night for the first time in ~10 years

I recommended it to my nephew a couple months ago, he loves it. It was one of my favorite shows and maybe the first to be HBOd.

Yeah I still recommend it, too.

Crazy that a show with such a short run can be in my top ~3. Same with the Knick.

Did you check out the short-lived LUCK (also by David Milch)? I was so disappointed when that got cancelled.

Totally forgot about that. Is that the one with horse racing? A horse died irl I think?

Is it worth checking out now, or would I just be mad at the loose ends and potential?

The Knick was fantastic. So was Boardwalk Empire.

Deadwood was awesome, and it followed the Sopranos. Best shows on TV for several years.
