Little updating for them that don't already know:

Tim Olyphant (Seth Bullock) is the villian in the new Die Hard flick. Sammydance on that!

Ian McShane (Al Swearengen) should be showing up on Broadway in August, if I'm not mistaken.

Jim Beaver (Ellsworth on DW, Bobby on SPN) plays Vietnam Joe on Milch's new HBO series John from Cincinnati.

Bobby in JohnCin? Worth to watch :)

Jim's always worth watching IMO. He was awesomeness defined in Deadwood.

I know you very like Deadwood but it just not my thing at all. But I trust your opinion so yeah, Jim rocks :)

John From Cincinnati might not be either, Leelust. It's appeal is actually less universal, methinks, than Deadwood's was. Especially for non-Americans not well versed in the zen philosophies so typified by the surfing culture in this country.

And there are drug and profanity aspects to it that puts off many of the same folks who found DW unwatchable for those reasons.

That being said, Vietnam Joe is a pretty freakin universal character, so even if you didn't grok the show as a whole, bet you'd enjoy Jim in it.

I saw first уз and you know - maybe I don't get all that surf stuff but i like what i saw. Not a fan but def, viewer :) And I like Bruce too so...
And yes! Vietnam Joe is tha Best :) I hope they don't get rid of him later.
As to Deadwood - it's not cos of cuss or something - it's just all that Wild wils West is - not my kink.
