I'm kind of enjoying the HBO series Deadwood. A friend just loaned me the whole first season and while I'm working late at night the last couple of weeks I catch an episode or two. I have a thought that the language is anachronistic, full of what seems like modern obscenities. Strikes me as quite incongruous - really seems to be the only lack so far.
The writing is pretty good, with some unusual turns and twists. I'm about halfway through the first season and it's just getting better.
