  • well with my 3 free months of h_b_o and my brand new 1 terabyte d_v_r I decided to record the entire first season.

    here's a question for those of you who watched the whole season.

    does it take an episode or 3 before it becomes engrossing? The first episode seemed to drag.

    I didn't get rolling on the following until I'd seen 2 or 3.

  • The crime plot picks up pace but it will always be a close second fiddle to the character arcs and relationships between Rust and Marty. I was hooked in episode one but that's because I identified with Rust on many levels.

    "I said, 'I need someone who's going to want to get on the roller coaster with me knowing that it's not always going to be fun,'" -Paul DePodesta

  • Story picks up momentum after second episode.

  • i called it the moment mcconaughey's character saw the dude on the lawnmower outside the school.

    thought it was one of the best series HBO has pumped out since deadwood and the wire.

    that opening sequence with the t.j. burnett song is off the hook.

  • Just finished the season. Intense. It's been a hot minute since I liked a single season of any show as.much.

    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

  • I watched it through without my wife and now I'm watching it again with her. You pick up a lot of little hints on the second go around.

    "I said, 'I need someone who's going to want to get on the roller coaster with me knowing that it's not always going to be fun,'" -Paul DePodesta

  • Season 5 of the Wire sucked. They changed all the characters personalities. Deadwood was great, especially the crude language and violence.

    "You planning on having a long relationship with that glass or are you going to drink it? Drink up, man. Maybe we can get another.” - Janis Joplin, 1970.

  • I started to get bored with Deadwood after Wild Bill Hickok got killed. I'm no fucking cock sucking pussy about bad language but I thought these guys went over the top for no reason.
