Deadwood Trivia

Most viewers are aware that the Deadwood characters "Wild Bill Hickok" and "Calamity Jane" were real-life characters. The truth is that most of the other characters are also based on real people, albeit, lesser known.

Not everything on Deadwood is historically accurate. For example, on the series Seth Bullock watches Wild Bill Hickok ride into Deadwood for the first time. In real life, Hickok arrived two weeks before Bullock. They didn't have much time to "socialize" after Bullock arrived as Hickok was killed the very next day!
