My dad loves it, but I think he just sees the cowboy hats and watches it because it's vaguely western.
He was great in Vice PrincipalsOnly the main dude wears a cowboy hat and people mock him for it
It’s not deep like the wire, but for brainles tv it watch pretty good
The guy who plays Boyd Crowder went on to be in everything, but this is my favorite role of his
He's my least favorite thing about Deadwood.Tim Olyphant is a bit of a poof
You don't think a guy who looks like a catalogue model convinces as one of the toughest guys in a lawless Western town by opening his eyes wide and gritting his teeth?He's my least favorite thing about Deadwood.
I highly suggest watching it while drinkingI wanted to like it and tried getting into it a couple of times, and it's certainly not bad, but for me it just didn't have that x factor that keeps you watching. Apparently it gets better later on but I didn't make it past like the start of season 2.
Is the character meant to be a piece of shit?I highly suggest watching it while drinking
the main character is basically a bully with a badge and a gun, but they dont really explore it till later seasons
he isnt a hero cause he cares, he just really doesnt like his dad whos a white trash criminal and he thinks he’s better than everyone else he is arresting
it's actually kinda interesting in the sense they don't explore the main character till like season 3 because the area he is patrolling is so interesting and the other characters are so much cooler
he's the classic bland "luke skywalker" "neo" character you are meant to project yourself onto
whoever got into his actual character, like when people started exploring batman as a person, it made the guy who wrote him originally make a new book
police aren't good people, they are usually bullies
Is the character meant to be a piece of shit?
To watch Ian McShane exchange dialog with him was like watching LeBron assisting my middle school point guard.You don't think a guy who looks like a catalogue model convinces as one of the toughest guys in a lawless Western town by opening his eyes wide and gritting his teeth?
I loved Deadwood but he occasionally took me out of it. He did seem to bring a lot of actors from Deadwood on to Justified as guest stars though.
I liked the show and I'd agree. Basically he's a larger than life fictional character dropped into a realistic setting to face larger than life antagonists later in the series. And earlier it's more episodic and the entertainment is him facing normal criminals with his unorthodox ways. Fir example the first episode he confronted a cartel soldier he'd watched (while captured) torture and kill a man. He'd given him24 hours to clear town or he'd shoot him. Basically he goads the guy int going for his gun so he could shoot him. Raylen doesn't care about the law as much as justice, as he sees it. But other characters giving him shit is kind of a reminder that "no, real people aren't like this" and that you're watching fiction. I thought it was good as long as you realize that and don't assume real life rules applyits kinda hard to qualify, he is mocked for wanting to look like a cowboy in the 2000’s
he is considered mentally unwell cause he constantly gets into “western style stand offs”
its touched on in ways, some episodes are more heavy handed near the end
but most of its waxed over in the beginning
if your asking if he is like the bald guy from the shield, no
hes equally as much of a cartoon character tho so i can see why people tune out
Then as an opposite comparison watching McShane act with Powers Boothe, or even the guys who played Dan and Johnny, was masterful stuff.To watch Ian McShane exchange dialog with him was like watching LeBron assisting my middle school point guard.
