Well tonight I finished watching Deadwood. If you have not seen it, I totally recommend you do so. And don’t be put off by the relentless cursing, violence and moral chaos… there is so much more going on. I mean, this is hands down the most linguistically brilliant television dialogue I have encountered.
Just have a look at some of these quotes and these two articles on the language of Deadwood.

So here’s a song from Willard Grant Conspiracy, to ease the pain… The Suffering Song. Indeed for all of the characters in Deadwood and all in life, suffering’s gonna come someday.
Get yours here… The Suffering Song.
