I haven't gotten to the featurettes yet. *g* Keith Carradine with Molly Parker is very cool, though.
Oh, if you're interested in RL Deadwood and what's real in the show and what isn't, can I suggest a book called The Real Deadwood? I was writing a Deadwood story for yuletide, and went looking for research material on the history and just happened to find this. It's a tie-in book which talks about the history of the town, but all the prominent people and character types featured in the show. It's a fun read and was a lot of help for me. For instance, I knew that Seth was a real person and that he was the first sheriff of the town, but I had no idea all the things he did in his life before he got to Deadwood. Or that he was sheriff for something like 40 years. And I figured Sol was just a made up character, but he was real and pretty interesting in his own right. (Also, it warmed my heart to see it mentioned--several times--that they were life-long partners. *happy sigh* I'm so pathetically a slash fan.)
