What's great about it: UNFILTERED RAW SERIES! What's not so great: only 3 seasons makes this series feel too short
"I had watched one episode of Deadwood before I bought this complete set. As it was, I got it for Christmas after reading enough reviews and talking to some buddies that had watched it. So, considering that I bought this series on a hunch, I could not be happier with my purchase.
Right out the gate, you get an idea of how rough a town like Deadwood was back in the day. Ian McShane was phenomenal as Al Swearengen. To give you an idea of how important he is throughout the show consider the following: if Deadwood was a human body, Swearengen would be its blood. And, McShane plays the role perfectly.
In addition to the great episodes, some of the episodes have audio commentary by the directors, actors, and producer, which I found to be very enjoyable. I had never listened to the commentary option on any DVD. But, I decided to give it a try with Deadwood, and I have absolutely enjoyed each one of them so far.
If there is any advice or warning that I can give you, its this: if you are offended by vulgar language, then you need to steer clear of this series, because it is FULL of it. At first it bothered me, but eventually I got to where I barely even noticed it. For one thing, I usually watched it late at night, and I usually had the subtitles on so that I wouldn't wake anyone else up. So, that might have helped.
Buy, buy, buy, if you are a fan of the show or very curious about the series."

"I have no interest in reviewing the quality of the DVD here since I consider that to be secondary to the quality of the content pressed to the DVD. Deadwood is, to those willing to wade waist deep into its profanity, the single greatest television drama ever created.
Ian McShane's performance alone makes this DVD set worth many times its price. I only gave the acting four stars because Timothy Olyphant's a little one dimensional and I didn't want to seem like an unreliable fanboy. Seriously, I have made it my business to watch television and movies, and this is almost certainly the best thing I have come across."

What's great about it: Best realistic Western ever What's not so great: The show is only 3 seasons
"I cannot believe how superb this show is. When I first heard about the premise, I figured "who cares about Westerns?" I heard all the rave reviews and ratings and decided to watch the pilot episode. I was IMMEDIATELY hooked. This show is amazing, with excellent characters, plot development, and historical reference points.
I am a TV and Film buff, and I have never heard one complaint about this show, that's reason enough to give it a try. My only complaint is that this show is only 3 seasons long."

What's great about it: Excellent actors!
"Forget the wild west shows you've seen before, this is the real west! No sugar coating on this one! The actors are excellent and I've never been so intruiged by characters. This is a fantastic buy for anyone in love with the old west. (Mature audiences only)"
