Production on "John From Cincinnati" may be cut short in order to begin production on the Deadwood movies.

I'm disappointed David Milch put this show on the back burner.

If I were Sumner Redstone, I would have put Deadwood on for another three seasons on Showtime. After all, he owns both Paramount (the studio that made Deadwood) and Showtime, which has less than half the subscribers of HBO. It would have been a great move for the fans of Deadwood as well as good business sense.

Unfortunately, I am not Sumner Redstone... just the guy who writes and posts to blogs...

Well if they make a Deadwood movie I hope that it doesn't end as lousy and disappointing as the series. That sucked! It had to be one of the worst series finales ever made. All the hype, it was like someone told you you were going to the best place in town to eat, only toget to rummage the dumpster.

The Sopranos didn't jack viewers around?????? What do you call the last 2-3 seasons? The Sopranos INVENTED the 12-18 month interval between seasons.

I knew I was over The Sopranos a while back when I started looking at my watch to see how soon an episode would end and Deadwood would begin. Hopefully, they will do the 2 "movies". I'd wait 2-3 years for that. If HBO suddenly cancelled The Sopranos, I 'd shrug at most.

One word. Carnivale.

The last time I check, The Sopranos didn't jack viewers around. The viewers just aren't open enough to more things besides murders everyweek.
I want to defend Deadwood because HBO cancelled it, but David Milch could have at least took care of closing the book on this before he started another project. I will give you that.

Based on the info in the Chicago Tribune article, and based on my belief that many of the "Deadwood" actors are 1st class thesbians who are eminently employable in Hollywood, I don't see the movies getting made :( The scheduling conflicts will be too much. It also sounds like David Milch is running out of energy, and may be burning out. :(

I am so tired of the Cable TV series that jack the loyal viewers around.
Stargate SG-1 (before going to SciFi), Dead Like Me, Huff, Deadwood, The Sopranos, and I'm sure there are more...

They all take the viewers for granted. I'm to the point now where I don't want to watch any series shows on any of the "Movie" channels, no matter how good they are.
