12 Fictional TV Locations It'd Blow Your Mind to Visit

5. Deadwood (Deadw00d)

As the man said, Deadwood might not be the most genteel of settlements, but what do you expect from a mining town in 1870s South Dakota? Reclaimed from the Native Americans but not yet part of the United States, Deadwood teeters on a knife's edger between law and disorder. Folks like Seth Bullock, former Sheriff turned hardware salesman, do their best to keep the peace, but it ain't easy in a place where gold and liquor are plentiful and life is cheap. Mr. Wu's pigs are always in need of feeding. Much of their diet comes to them courtesy of Al Swearengen, the shouty man from the clip, owner and proprietor of the Gem Saloon; if there's business going down in Deadwood, chances are he's got his hand in it. In all fairness, there's not much to do besides drink, play cards - the whores are inadvisable, just as Doc Cochran. You could always take a stroll down main street, though it's mostly mud; buildings are going up all the time and you might spot a celebrity of the age, a Charlie Utter or Calamity Jane, maybe even a Wild Bill Hickok (if nobody puts a bullet in him first that is). Still, it's the Wild West: what exactly were you expecting, Paint Your Wagon?
