Deadwood: Season 1

The year is 1876. The location: the Black Hills of South Dakota. In an age of plunder and greed, the richest gold strike in American history draws a throng of restless misfits to an outlaw settlement where everything and everyone has a price. Welcome to Deadwood...a hell of a place to make your fortune. Timothy Olyphant, Ian McShane, Molly Parker and Keith Carradine lead an ensemble cast in Season 1 of this drama series that focuses on the birth of a frontier town and the power struggle between its just and unjust inhabitants. 'Deadwood' combines fictional and real-life characters in an epic morality tale set in a town comprised primarily of ruthless outlaws and naive settlers--most of whom are driven by the greed and ambition of the Great American Gold Rush.
