Wu who?

Digmenow · « **Reply #4 on:** March 13, 2009, 10:00:56 AM »

Any relation?

Cousin Sol (my great, great, great grandfather's sun) --> Kinda redundant, eh?

You know, I never watched a single episode of that show. No idea why.

To this day, I would have to say it was the finest TV series ever produced, head and shoulders above the rest. The show transports you to a different place and time in a way that I had never before experienced. The mixture of fact with fiction was done brilliantly, and sparked a keen interest in personal research to sort it all out. And the dialog, pure genius...

It didn't give you a 'born in the wrong century' kind of feeling, did it? I felt that way about 'Combat!' but only if I could be Sgt. Saunders.

Dunno if I'd go that far. It may have been a fun place/time to explore, but I wouldn't count on surviving the experience. There was no law at all in Deadwood, since it was not part of the U.S.

Frankly, I believe you in particular, would be drop-jaw memorized by the level of detail provided by Deadwood. A veritable candy store of historical minutia.

I don't know why but I am reminded of "The Outlaw Josey Wales" except for the language.

^ Deadwood comedy. Priceless.

The Outlaw Josey Wales, which I enjoyed, is a study of caricatures. Deadwood is a study of characters.

I can just see a couple of sunburned studio types sitting at a table in an L.A. eatery pitching the idea...

"Bubby, think Outlaw Josey Wales meets The Sopranos."

"Boffo!"

Thus explaining the complete lack of appreciation for "The Star Chamber" thread.

GermanStar · « **Reply #15 on:** March 13, 2009, 04:18:32 PM »

Never heard of it....

GermanStar · « **Reply #16 on:** August 27, 2009, 02:12:10 PM »

OK, so I've started watching the Sopranos, and I'm up to the tenth episode. I'm still looking for a Waffle House, but I did see Dig's car, the w210 wagon the Mrs. drives. That is all.

Digmenow · « **Reply #17 on:** September 13, 2009, 04:40:29 AM »

Only 76 left before total comprehension*.

*Waffle House not included.

GermanStar · « **Reply #18 on:** September 13, 2009, 09:19:50 AM »

My whole purpose is to find the Waffle House. You said. I've now gotten through the first two seasons -- wafflelessly.

Get used to disappointment. Ever seen this movie?

<table class="maeva" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="width: 480px" id="sae3"> <tr><td style="width: 480px; height: 385px" id="saeva3"> <div id="aevid3"> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxhglDElOu8" target="_blank" class="aeva_link bbc_link new_win">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxhglDElOu8</a> </div> <script type="text/javascript"><![CDATA[ swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.youtube.com/v/jxhglDElOu8&rel=0&showinfo=1", "aevid3", "480", "385", "9", aeinst, {}, aevams, {id:"aevayt3"}); // ]]></script></td></tr></table>

It's what led up to this scene that makes the difference.
