Get the sled, Johnny
After all that waiting, after all that impatient thumb-twiddling, after watching the entire second season replayed a dozen times... now, 12 days before it finally starts up again, they tell us that “Deadwood” will be canceled after this season. Which means we'll be watching the next (the last) 12 episodes with equal parts relief and dread.
It sounds like this decision was made after they finished shooting the third season — so it's highly unlikely that they bothered to tie up any loose ends, plotwise. On the contrary, the show may very well end on a cliffhanger that will never be resolved.
Damn you! Damn. You. All. To. Hell.
That said, the trailer for the third season is very cool (the one with the main characters reciting the Beatitudes).
I swear, if HBO nixed “Deadwood” to make room for another show about Hollywood narcissists, then some sanfan-sisko-cogsugger is gonna get fed to Mr. Wu's pigs.

What?! This is shocking. So bad.
I wonder if it's just too expensive to produce.
That's one of the reasons they're giving -- something like $5 mil per episode. But at only 12 episodes a year, it can't be that prohibitive.
