So what the fuck happened to the two 1 1/2 hour specials that were supposed to air this fuckin' year?

Now, I should be giving this 5 stars, because Deadwood is fucking beautiful, but I have lost any and all patience with this "HURR HURR LOTS UV SWEARS!" critique that sticks with the show like a case of the crabs. Deadwood is an elegantly written, insightful manifest on the American experiment.
Cocksuckers.

I watch it for the swearing, and the swearing alone.

-1:31 "Fucking fucking fucking hobby".
I've heard somewhere that "fuck" wasn't used to mean anything except, you know, fucking, at the time Deadwood is supposedly depicting. Artistic license, I guess.

zatojones - 2007-09-24 I heard an interview with a writer for the show (perhaps the creator) who said that back then "sacreligious" words like damn and hell were the really bad ones and were used a lot, but in order to convey the uncivil nature of the frontier to a modern audience they decided to use bad words we'd be more shocked by today. Hence all the "fuck shit piss cunt" language.

snothouse - 2007-09-24 Wow, what an eloquent way to explain something done for ratings.

The thing is, the swearing on this show is massively anachronistic. But I guess a show where people used "hell" and "damned" as final-straw swears would come off like The Adventures of Yosemite Sam" to a modern audience.

Some dude on the radio said we have Second World War soldiers to thank for the word 'fuck' having any meaning you want.
P.S. "course" language?

Roachbud - 2007-09-24 specifically Norman Mailer even though he couldn't spell it
|
Repomancer - 2007-09-24 It was already common in the First World War.

COURSE LANGUAGE
|
Xiphias - 2007-09-24 so I can't help but wonder if you meant "curse" or "coarse" or maybe you couldn't decide and you got confused and tried to do both words at once
|
a flaming monkey - 2007-09-24 No! You're supposed to learn it by wrote! Course as in a college course! That's why it's in the educational category. Sheesh, I thought that was obvious.
