  • Summary: In an age of plunder and greed, the richest gold strike in American History draws a throng of restless misfits to an outlaw settlement where everything - and everyone - has a price. Welcome to Deadwood...a hell of a place to make your fortune.

The story begins two weeks after Custer's defeat at Little Bighorn, combining fictional and real-life characters and events in an epic morality tale. Located in the Black Hills Indian Cession, the "town" of Deadwood is an illegal settlement, a violent and uncivilized outpost that attracts a colorful array of characters looking to get rich - from outlaws and entrepreneurs to ex-soldiers and racketeers, Chinese laborers, prostitutes, city dudes and gunfighters. … Expand

    Excellent cinematography, art direction, staging, costumes etc; a technical tour de force, particularly for television. The scrip and acting is brilliant. If you haven't seen it you must. The only thing keeping me from giving it a 10 is that they only made three seasons of the five originally planned so the 'wrap up' at the end of the third season is awkward.… Expand
