well, the Latin word (if I remember correctly) for 'to make, or do' is facio. Pronounced fack-e-o. the imperitive form is fac (you know how to say it). If I were to command you in Latin, I would use fac to tell you to make, or "do" something.

Words like this have exsisted, but I don't know about most of the other ones, I just have a hard time believing they talked like that all the time.

A truely great show and one of three reasons keep HBO. The other two being Carnivale and The Sopranos. Charlie Utter and Sol Star are also factual characters in Deadwood.

I picked up season one a few weeks ago and absolutely love it. The language is a bit much sometimes, but after a while I've found it to be simply amusing (particularly the episode about Wu's dead dope couriers). Overall I feel that it gives a prety accurate depiction of the west. Theres dirt and mud, brothels and booze everywhere. I've watched too many westerns and civil war movies where there is no dust or grime... Not to mention the top-notch performances all around, which is more than I can say for most everything else on TV.

The new character, "Mr W", is the same actor that played Wild Bill's assassin

Deadwood

The Number of Fucks In Deadwood

Ah, my favorite show. We have a group here that watches each episode at least two or three times with Tivo no less to pick up all the nuance.

The language is the language. It does not bother me a bit as I went to Oakland inner city schools and the Key System buses where I lost all sensitivity to MF and any and all derivatives.

I do doubt these were the actual cusswords, but I'm sure there were others just as good.

Let's not forget, at least in part it's comedy or farce.

How about "The Wire"?

I think it's one of the best-written shows on television today- the language is pretty much pure poetry whenever someone opens their mouth, and I have read enough to lead me to believe that is how people actually did talk back then in the "Wild West".

The acting's improved signficantly this season, as well...I'm a Sopranos nut, but this may be the best series on tv right now.

Just finally started watching it and love it. I start laughing anytime someone says cocksucker. The language doesn't bother me at all, whereas it bothered me in Pulp Fiction etc.

I caught the first episode when it first aired and have been hooked ever since. The language doesn't bother me at all. Use to work in a bar!

I can't wait till season 3 starts to see what's in store for everyone.

WAAA, WAAAAA They said a bad word! Seriously, if you can't handle the language you should probably be watching teletubbies or some other show on PBS, Not HBO.

I just started watching season one off of netflix. I had seen some new episodes but nothing made sense to me without seeing it from the beginning. I have only seen the first six or seven episodes so far, but I'm liking it. I don't seem to be as, for lack of a better term, inolved with it as the Sopranos. I like the Seth Bullock characer the best so far.

I think Big Love is going to turn out to be a better show in the long run, though.
