...has been cancelled! Didn't think it would be a long running thing anyway. Really enjoyed the six episodes i've seen so far.

I, for one, thought it was woeful!

But in saying that, i didn't make it past episode 1. Never has the name "Butchie" been more irritating as hearing it 300+ times in the first 20 minutes.

The pilot was pretty much non-sensical (and apparently, the series continued that way) and i even read an interview with David Milch who said he doesn't even know what it's about - he's a goddamn writer on it!

fair enough, different strokes... It is hard to follow storyline-wise but there are some good characters and acting in it and I'll stick with it.

It was good, but I felt that at 10 episodes, I'd seen enough of it. I'm still not quite sure what the hell was going on, or who(or what) John is.:D It was a very bizzare show, I'll give it that. Almost Lynch-ian. Fantastic dialogue, though and some brilliant characters. Bill and Freddie deserve their own spin-off show. They were great.

I will miss the opening credits, though. RIP Joe Strummer.:(

Now, please try and do all you can to get those Deadwood movies made, eh Milch?;)

I have watched all 10 episodes but I have to say that I won't miss it. It was a bit weird for me with the levitation and the Jesus analogies.

Also what was up with 47 year old Rebecca de Mornay playing the grandmother to a 16 year old boy. I know she hasn't aged too well but come on!
