« Hypnotized ... By Cheese | Main | A Quiet Night At Home » November 26, 2006Addicted To "Deadwood"Just some quick props for (and a recommendation of) a great (HBO) TV show - Deadwood. Allie suggested I check it out several months ago, and was even kind enough to loan me her entire six-disc (!) set for of first season. Now that my travel schedule has settled down a bit, Elaine and I have finally made some time on the couch to see what the fuss is all about. Wow. A lot has been written about the show (particularly its use of language and profanity), but the accolades are well-deserved. The characters are terrific (especially the corrupt, profane Al Swearengen, played by Ian McShane), the storyline is great, the drama ... the sets ... oh, hell, the lot of it is just fantastic. Oh, and there's swearing in it. (Did I mention the swearing?) We're getting Season 2 off of Netflix here shortly. If you're in-market for a TV addiction, I suggest put it in your queue.

Actually, Tony sent me a YouTube link to "Deadwood Pancakes" which is both hysterically funny and Not Remotely Safe For Work. Check it out!
