green_trilobite spontaneously decided to rewatch the first episode of Deadwood last night. It’s strange seeing each character introduced. Al is still metaphorically twirling his moustache; Jane gets this look of fangirl squee on her face every time Bill speaks to her; Doc is this weird little mad-scientist guy you don’t know whether or not to trust, and Rev. Smith is already a bit off kilter, but you don’t yet know what to make of him, either. Ellsworth hasn’t cleaned up yet. I’d forgotten Tim Driscoll, as he doesn’t survive this episode – the actor keeps reminding me of Scott Thompson (Kids in the Hall) in a weird way.

I’d also forgotten how many scenes there are of not-talking in Deadwood – you think of it as all about the language, but people throw a lot of “yeah, I noticed it too” glances at each other.

Jewel's dress being different throws me off, as well. And how Al still wears the shirt instead of just his union suit under his jacket & waistcoat. Plus Johnny in a hat for the only time ever. Lol.

First episodes/movies are great! It's like baby pictures.

Well, Episode 2 is like a Doc-being-awesome-fest - looking after Sofia, talking to Jane, facing down Dan, etc.
