Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I tell you, my stress levels have been so much more manageable since I took Al's advice and got my own decapitated Native-American head in a box for my office. Now I can finally deliver my soliloquys in peace!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

My thoughts at the beginning of "Amalgamations and Capital":

I don't think Bullock's wife and kid could be any more dull and boring.

My thoughts at the end of "Amalgamations and Capital":

Holy fuck! Holy fuck! I DIDN'T REALLY MEAN IT. WHAT THE FUCK YOU CAN'T KILL THE FUCKING KID WHAT THE FUCK.

Wasn't that disturbing?

It looked like the motherfucker was torn in half at first. And I was certain it was all leading up to an accident with the bartender.

Just finished season 2.

The brother-murdering bastard gets to live, and the kid dies? Stupid town!

Alma and Ellsworth! Aww.

As usual, there's a bunch of stuff that's going over my head. I'm not entirely sure I understand how all the annexation business is working and who's coming out ahead and why. But I did like that they intercut the awkward wedding with the awkward signing of the contract.

Farnum is such a slimeball.

Was I supposed to like Jane by now? Because I still want her off my screen.

God, Mrs. Bullock is so irritating. I'm so tired of The Mr. and Mrs. Bullock Frigid Relationship Hour. I used to really like Seth, too.

WTF Wolcott?? I can't tell if he just went nuts and hanged himself or whether someone "took care" of him.

Take that, San Francisco cocksucker!

And Tolliver! Stabbity! He'll live.

I think some stuff needs to blow up next season.

The Mr. and Mrs. Bullock Frigid Relationship Hour.

Priceless.

You have no cirrhosis in your heart.

Or no magic in your liver, I'm not sure which it is.

Aw, dude, give Jane a break. She's had a hard road.

Has she? As far as I can tell, she lost her friend Bill. And she's a drunk. Who slurs all her words and speaks to everyone in the same brash tone. And I still have no idea why she's like that or what purpose her character serves, since she doesn't do anything.

Well, in a culture that says, okay, little girl, wife or prostitute, she is surviving without being either. Maybe not in a way we want to emulate, but she puts one boot in front of the other(except when spirits make that, uh, challenging.) The older I get, I respect that. And I get the impression she saw some shit in her indian-scout days, but I'm not sure how explicit canon is about that. Not as much as the Doc at Antietam, but she's got some scars.

That is a point. I find it amusing that my favorite female characters are two whores and a gimp.

But I also find it interesting that Deadwood appears to have a lot of women on the writing staff.
