By the by. Can anyone recommend a good book about the real history of Deadwood?

> We have TiVo at our house. We use it a lot, and store up all kinds of stuff to watch ‘later.’ But never Deadwood. There is no ‘watch it later’ when it comes to Deadwood. It’s the only show that my husband and I always watch live, because we can’t stand to miss a single moment.

Us too! Even the repeat eps during the following week. Sometimes we’d watch the whole episode again, and sometimes we’d just watch for a few minutes and then get back to dinner, chores, sleep.

Because you never know when The Big One will hit, or the TV will explode, or electricity will vanish, and you might not get a second chance.

I don’t know for sure, but I’m assuming it’ll be March. Wasn’t it March last year? They started filming in July.

As for books, I’ve heard good things about Pete Dexter’s Deadwood. I took out a subscription to the Deadwood magazine, and they’ve plugged some Deadwood history books, written by locals. I’ll see if I can find the info, but I don’t know if they’re widely available or sold locally.
