Ladywood Ladywood

The Deadwood movie is finally here! Our final chance to visit the world of Al, Seth, Alma, Trixie and all our favorite characters held many surprising moments, some beautiful bits of closure, and a few opportunities that fell through the cracks. Join us for this final trip to Deadwood.

We've reached the series finale of Deadwood, so it's time to reflect upon all the things we've loved as well as all the things we would have done differently. (Hey, you know the drill by now...because we're writers. Writers in LA.) The movie is nigh, and we thank you for listening with us this far!

A moment of silence for a Ladywood favorite as we discuss Deadwood's penultimate episode. Hearst takes violent action, and we mourn along with the characters for the ensuing loss. From there, retaliation takes things to another level -- and as we move into the final episode of the show's run, it remains unclear who will come out on top.

It's a stunner of an episode as we head into the home stretch of season three. When someone shoots at Alma during her daily walk to the bank, our regulars band together to scheme and strategize, tension rising all the time. Oh, and also the actors have some nonsense going on? And Cy is being a dick for no reason? But we're not gonna let those distractions ruin an otherwise great episode.

It's a bad week for season three's new side characters, as the Earp brothers end their Deadwood adventure without much fanfare and Odell meets a sad fate off screen. As we ask ourselves what the point of all that was, another questionable event looms: the town's first Amateur Night! What talents hide in the crowd of hoopleheads? We shall see.

The Earp brothers arrive, a-shootin' and a-hollerin', and if you think it takes us long to start trying to fan fiction it up and make a gay love match....you're listening to the wrong show. On a less sexy note, Hearst may be riled up by Seth's letter in the newspaper, but he still lets himself get vulnerable with Jack during a creative treatment for his bad back. And by episode's end, a different band of men are shooting their way into town....
