Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is an unblinking look of the late 19th century western territory that is today South Dakota. It's a society dominated by violent white men on both sides of the law, a society in which Native Americans, Chinese, blacks and women are assumed inferior. The series is raw, profane, and lawlessly violent, and thus seems very authentic. The characters are complex, the good becoming at times the bad, and the villains showing at times a sense of caring for others. The series has only 3 seasons, although it deserves to be a longer series.

A nicely produced series that seems to really bring back the old west

This is one of my favorite HBO shows. The first season is especially grand, some of the best story telling around. Excellent characters, realistically human, and a wonderful ensemble story. The Blu-ray edition is excellent, the details, the colors in the video are outstanding, you can see the grime and dirt and all the details in the sets and costumes. Audio is excellent also. Highly recommended.

Love the Dead Wood series! Even though some of the slang "terms" that are used in the series, I find a little suspect for that era, the overall dialogue keeps your attention. You hange on every conversation and engagements of the characters. I watched the series while it was on HBO... but had to revisit once the box set was released. Very disappointed that it didn't carry on for more than 3 seasons.

It had been several years since I last watched this show. After seeing it for such a great sale price, I had to get it. I forgot how fantastic it was. The only thing negative to say is that it ended to abruptly and should not have been cancelled. I hope the talks of a reunion movie actually happen this time. Great packaging and bonus content in the box set, as well.

I was a loyal Deadwood fan for all 3 seasons on HBO. This DVD set allows me to relive the series whenever I like. This is not for the squeamish or faint of heart. This is what I imagine life would have been in a lawless western gold rush town in the late 1870's. I only wish HBO had produced a finale after abrubtly stopping this series after 3 seasons despite its' continuing popularity.

The card hand is there; Hickok, McCall and others are there in the correct historical relationships; Custer has died off camera; and the Sioux, usually talked about rather than seen, are there. But, all that said, this is generally a period novel for television that is more about the atmosphere of a frontier boom town than really historical. It is entertaining, although more graphic than is really necessary for the story and, for that matter, more graphic than seems actually believable. Still, I would recommend it to either mature or jaded audiences.

Great series, looking fantastic in Blu Ray. You get use to the language after a while, even though I could have done with it in moderation. Story lines are great. Performances are first rate. Sets and the town are terrific. Shot at Melody Ranch in Santa Clarita. Well worth the watch.

This set has all the shows and looks great. For the show itself, like GAme of Thrones, it has a slow start to the storyline, however if you stick with it, it is fulfilling. Besides, Mr. Swear Enger has many great quotable lines! Put your captions on!

Comes from a network that makes great series and this one didn't disappoint. Deadwood was a mining town in the 1800's that wasn't part of the U.S. or any territory. It was the gold, and lawlessness that brought all types of savory and unsavory characters together in this series. Many stories , lives intertwined here. Strongly recommend if you like cowboy movies. Not many seasons, not enough to finish the story, in my opinion, but hopefully someday HBO will revisit Deadwood..

The cast is great, the story and characters are engaging, and the set and background actors are so convincing you feel like you're peeking in on a real world. Warning to parents, LOTS of cursing.

This was a gift for my sibling, so that being said, I don't know much about the series, but it was a favorite of my sibling. I waited a year for it to come down in price to get it. This was a good deal & I jumped on it.

Ian McShane is awesome in this show. Love the story, could do with a little less on the profanity side, but aside from that was one of my favorite shows to watch.

Have always wanted this as part of my collection and am glad to finally call it my own. This series is by far one of the best shows I have seen. I don't feel qualified to provide a review of this show, but it is definitely worth the watch!

I had only seen a few episodes and bought this set on sale at Best Buy. Instantly one of the best decisions I've made. This show is incredible, the picture and sound quality is outstanding. A must-own series.

I still don't understand why this show wasn't around longer. If you don't have baby ears in the room, this show is awesome. More true to the old west than most western themed shows.

Who doesn't love Deadwood? One of my all time favorites, and the box set was on sale at half normal price. If you are like me and a huge fan of deadwood you have to pick this up

Bought this for my father as a Christmas gift, and he has already made his way through it all. This is a very great HBO series; really hoping they fast track its revival.

Deadwood is hands down the best western show next to Eastwood's, Unforgiven. Next to the Wire and the Sopranos, Deadwood is my third favorite cable series...and I've seen quite a few!

I loved this show when it first came out on HBO. When it came out on Blu-ray it was over a $100 way to much. They finally dropped the price and even includes a digital copy. Great buy
