It is a deliberate anachronism on the part of the creator with a twofold intent. Milch explained in several interviews that the characters were originally intended to use period slang and swear words.

    Such words, however, were based heavily on the time's deep religious roots and tended to be more blasphemous than scatological. Instead of being shockingly crude in keeping with the tone of a frontier mining camp , the results sounded comical. As Geoffrey Nunberg put it "… if you put words like 'goldarn' into the mouths of the characters on Deadwood , they'd all wind up sounding like Yosemite Sam. Instead, it was decided that the show would use current profanity in order for the words to have the same impact on modern audiences as the blasphemous ones did back in the s. In early episodes, the character of Mr.

    Wu excessively uses "cocksucker," his favorite derogatory term for those whom he dislikes. Wu is also fond of the Cantonese derogatory term " gweilo " which he applies to the camp's white males. The other intent in regard to the frequency of the swearing was to signal to the audience the lawlessness of the camp in much the same way that the original inhabitants used it to show that they were living outside the bounds of "civil society. The issue of the authenticity of Deadwood' s dialogue has even been alluded to in the show itself.

    Early in the second season, E. Farnum has fleeced Mr. The word " fuck " is said 43 times in the first hour of the show. Deadwood received almost universal praise from critics over the course of its three-year run. On Metacritic , the first season had an 80 out of score sampled from 26 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".

    The praise generally centered on the strength of the writing and Milch's unique style of dialogue.
