Tonight marks the season premieres for the HBO shows, “Deadwood” and “Entourage”, both in their third season.

I have to say that both shows had very strong premieres tonight with “Deadwood” probably taking the prize for best in show. “Deadwood” is just shot incredibly well, the director of photography chooses his shots very carefully and it makes for very good television.

I do not however what you to think that “Entourage” was somehow sub-par in it’s showing this evening. Quite the contrary, it was probably one of the best episodes of the show second probably only to my personaly favorite “Sundance Kids” from the second season.

If you have not had the change to watch either of these shows, I highly recommend picking up the DVDs from your choice of retail store or rental venue and watch the first two season. I recommend “Deadwood” to any fan of “The Sopranos” and “Entourage” to any guy who’s girl made him watch “Sex and the City”. Be advised that neither show is for a child’s eyes and viewer discretion is highly advised.
