Deadwood lost a lot of its historical buildings in a devastating fire in 1987. I remember going up there just before the fire (like one month before!) It used to be a real pretty town.

That’s good to hear. From what I recall most of the surviving copies that were out there have Spanish or Italian language dubbed dialogue over them (presumably because they were recorded by someone overseas, rather than the US)

Don't worry, he's not a household name here in the states, either.

They did a Kickstarter just last year to raise funds to bring it to DVD. They found the complete digitized masters including the English voice actors (only 3 episodes aired in the US, supposedly, though I remember it being more).
So soon you'll be able to buy a DVD copy! They have stretch goals they're completing so probably not until years end.

I guess this is probably where the english word ”recount” comes from?

I kinda get Zippy vibes. But I can see the flower scenario.

Actually I have family in that area and I’ve been there multiple times, and I think the commenter was being a bit harsh. I don’t remember too much maga crap. I mean, not any more than any other small town in America, and maybe less, because it really is a tourist friendly area.
I think you can emphasize the bad in any area if you want to. For example: I was just in Seattle and enjoyed it. But if I wanted to describe it as a shitty shore town city with a tourist trap market, a homeless problem, and trash everywhere because all the hippy dippies are so in love with recycling there’s no trash cans….
I wouldn’t be lying. But… it’s not a good representation (for the record had a really good time in Seattle).
Black hills South Dakota have lots of things to do. The hotel built by Seth bullock is still standing.
There are lots of craft breweries and… decent restaurants can be found.
The politics aren’t too in your face.
Spearfish canyon is a beautiful drive. Rough lock falls is a beautiful hike. Mount Rushmore is worth seeing once. Sylvan lake is beautiful too.
There’s honestly a lot to see and do, and in Spearfish right down the road they’ve actually got a college town vibe with sensory deprivation tanks and multiple coffee shops and a good walkable vibe. Id say go for it. If you’re not happy with this advice I’ll refund all the money you paid for it.

Did you check out the short-lived LUCK (also by David Milch)? I was so disappointed when that got cancelled.

I think that show may be at least partially lost media at this point. Crazy to think something that ran in the late VHS era wouldn’t have more home video recordings of it surviving.

Yeah I still recommend it, too.
Crazy that a show with such a short run can be in my top ~3. Same with the Knick.

I recommended it to my nephew a couple months ago, he loves it. It was one of my favorite shows and maybe the first to be HBOd.

Someone else mentioned Zippy The Pinhead and since I never heard of him (he´s not a household figure here in Sweden) I had to google him. Can see the resemblance.

I´m not familiar with Zippy The Pinhead (we don´t have him in Sweden) so I didn´t realize it was a quote. I learned something new today, thanks!
