Just a heads up in regards to a show Wednesday night on the History channel about Deadwood ("Lost Worlds"). This series uses CGI to recreate ancient locations. Could be interesting and, as usual for the History channel, semi-accurate. Scenes from the ads portray Wild Bill and others... could be fun.
Here's the blurb for the show from the History channel website:
"The Wild West was an era of American growth fueled by lawless gambling towns, frenzied gold rushes, and legendary racketeers. Gunfighters and misfits thrived in an anarchic society where people were simply looking for a good time and a way to get filthy rich. Follow a team of historical detectives who use evidence from recent excavations, scientific studies and historical documents to piece together clues to what the Wild West looked like. Computer graphics will allow viewers to fly over, enter the streets, walk through the halls and peer into this lost age.
Rating: TVPG
Running Time: 60 minutes
Genre:Exploration"
