Received both seasons from my wife as a Christmas present a couple years ago. I would say that both seasons are well worth the time to watch.
Just as a warning, however, the second season definitely ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. Pretty cool but also fairly sad (since they never picked it back up for another season).

Like many HBO good shows, they get cancelled because of $$$!
My girlfriend and I watched both seasons of this show about a year ago and became increasingly enthralled with each episode we watched.
It was very disappointing to find the show was canceled after the second season. Sadly enough I will be setting myself up for the same disappointment when I finally sit myself down to watch Deadwood.

I haven't watched Deadwood, but I hear that there is a lot of swearing in it.
This was an excellent show. Yes, Deadwood does have a lot of swearing in it, but it is done to keep in time with the people who were part of those early days of the Dakota territories...

ROFL!
Yeah, I saw the first three episodes a while back and yes, the swearing is epic. lol. If that's a turn-off for you I wouldn't recommend it to you. On the other hand, if brilliant character writing and performance are your thing, what I saw was ripe with it.
It's a real good show. I actually signed up for Starz play just so I could watch it after letting my cable go (was just to damn expensive). Not only do you get Spartacus with Starz play, but there are some other good movies you can watch too.
Wonder if HBO (or was it Showtime?) has something similar so I can rewatch Carnivale. Talking about it has me jonesing.
