I've been boycotting everything associated with HBO and David Milch since they screwed everyone with the no HBO Deadwood movies. I certainly will never buy an HBO or David Milch product!!! I have a large and growing group and we pass around copies of Deadwood so that we don't spend a dime on HBO or Milch's future! We spend a lot of time developing other means to boycott these two idiots!!!

Dearwood will always be a top show for me. I will not buy the box set though. The way it was left and abandoned for dead just leaves a bad taste in my mouth - or maybe it was Woo's funky tasting hogs - what do they feed those animals anyway?
Bring back ****ing Deadwood.

Milch and Chris Albrecht, the then-CEO of HBO, reached a handshake deal in June 2006 to make the two telepics.

About 11 months later, Albrecht choked out his girlfriend in Vegas (after an HBO fight) and had to resign. The troika that succeeded him at HBO wanted no part of the telepics, too expensive for them, and Milch lost interest in fighting for them, he's always got new stuff going on.

If Albrecht hadn't got himself canned, maybe, maybe, the pics would have gotten made when JFC tanked. But not now.

That's showbiz...

HBO is known for canceling great shows before its time.... Rome, Deadwood, The Wire. John from Cincinnati wasn't half bad either. Ed O'neil getting frustrated on JFC is one of the funniest moments on TV.

Well, maybe except sopranos... they should have canceled that show at the end of season 4.

Count me as one those upset by HBO not renewing a series for it's final season. Both HBO and Milch looked stupid picking John from Cincinnati to replace Deadwood.
Deadwood was very unique and had a decent size fan base for cable show. Now we'll never have a true end.

I blame both Milch and HBO. If Milch wasn't so flaky maybe they might have backed another season. Milch himself has been quoted as saying he didn't want to go beyond a 3rd season. And always missing production deadlines and being over-budget didn't help. But HBO was looking for any chance to dump this show and decided the end of season 3 was the perfect time to do this. I guess they weren't making enough money on it or something. I guess I blame HBO more though since Milch did start fighting to bring it back. I'm still pissed off at both of them. I sure miss Al Swearingen. One of my all-time favorite tv characters.

I won't buy this. HBO is still on my **** list for screwing up one of the greatest series of all time. Compelling drama with plenty of humor thrown in. All of the fans want a finish to those 36 episodes. HBO blames the creator and vice versa. He wanted 10 episodes and they told him they would back only 6. He said that he could not wrap it up effectively with that number. Who's to blame? Any thoughts?
