I've been catching up on this series while waiting for Breaking Bad to resume in July.

I'm about halfway through the second season and, yeah I know I'm about 7 years behind, but this is great stuff. Writing, characters, acting, set design, cinematography, everything about this series is amazing. Even the music clips that they play over the final credits are worth waiting for.

I have to be careful, though. After a weekend where I watch 4 or 5 hours of the stuff I have to be careful not to drop multiple "fucking cocksuckers" in the office.

Last episode left a lot to be desired. Bad guy wins but leaves town, life pretty much goes on as before, I guess. No big climax. It's like they were leaving it open for another season but decided to drop it.

Looks like you were searching for solutions to "dead wood" when you stumbled across the TV series.

That is...it met the same fate that almost all other shows meet.

I'm still on season 2, but if you're talking about Al Swearengen that is pretty much happened. He ran the Gem Theater for 22 years and then sort of dropped off the map. He was found dead with his head stoved in near a streetcar line in Denver in 1904. It was never determined whether or not it was foul play or misadventure.

I'd respond, but it's better that you find out for yourself.
