a lifetime regimen of television western have leave me tired of the genre and sick of the directing and bore by the low budget set and nauseate by the trite plot and appal by the goodie two shoe language choose in their screenplay . deadwood be something altogether different and and though and by the admission of it director and short of be an historical treatise it be nevertheless an historical perspective i have never see before . instead it be more of a treatment of an historical era lent to a respect for authenticity without compromise entertainment value . the scripting and cast and direction and set be astound . it be the first television miniseries ( save for the soprano ) that leave me want for more and truly sad to see a season end . if only they could do something to improve new season turnaround .
