Summary
No. 24 made HBO's Deadwood the top-ranked western on The New York Times' list of the 100 best shows of the 21st century.
More than 500 actors, writers, directors and other industry professionals voted on the ranking, which placed Justified at No. 83 and left Yellowstone off the list.
Deadwood ran for three seasons from 2004 to 2006, won eight Emmys from 28 nominations, and was canceled despite critical acclaim because of high production costs and low ratings.
A 2019 follow-up film let creator David Milch finish the story, extending the legacy of a series now singled out as the century's best western so far.
