Deadwood: The Complete Seasons 1-3

Simply the best series since Lonesome Dove,the acting is great. My wife and I are very depressed the series ended.

Any fan of Gene Autry, Lone Ranger, John Wayne, Tom Mix, Jimmy Stewart, Hopalong Cassidy and the like will probably want to steer clear of this one; unless they want to see what they've been missing. There are no perfectly swept thoroughfares, perfectly pressed, colorful, and unstained riding clothes, no singing cowboys, and endless shots from a six-shooter. This is what the west really was; gritty, dangerous, and dirty (dust or mud; depending on the weather).
One of the greatest series I have ever seen. I cannot say enough about it, but due to limited space, let me just say that it ranks up there with Rome and Band of Brothers for setting, story quality, and acting. I'd say of the three, this series was my favorite for characters and setting. See it!

I am really enjoying the DVD. Word of caution though. For those affended by the use of extremely colorful language, this is not for you.

most realistic western i have ever seen.hope there is a forth season sometime in the near future
