Man I'm in tears watching this. I felt something similar watching Terry Jones fade away. Deadwood is my favorite show of all time. David Milch is a genius.
David, thank you, I can't express how much Deadwood inspired me in the attempt to improve my writing. Any amount of success I've had is in large part because of you and your work.
David is one of those people who I love deeply despite never having met. His work is just that important to me. This made me want to cry... It's so tragic to see him in this condition compared to how dynamic and youthful he was in interviews on the set of Deadwood, etc. But I'm glad he still has days ahead of him, days of happiness despite the darkness. True Detective Season 3 which he co-wrote was a really moving portrayal of what it's like to have Alzheimers and watching it recently made me think of him. I could hear his inimitable voice in some of that season's dialogue. It's great he managed to make the Deadwood movie as well despite his condition. He's a genius and will be missed greatly when he passes.
huge fan of Deadwood, will go down as one of the greatest tv shows in history. He elevated so many actors and actresses with his writing. I work in the ALZ industry and it's a very unpredictable journey. He has a strong family that will be with him every step of the way.
I was and am so sorry to hear of this brilliant man's illness, and am now again amazed that his creativity is not vanquished. David Milch is the very first screenwriter who I HAD to learn more about. It's a pitiful thing that the general population is better guided to appreciate the artists without whom we would not have incredible entertainment. Milch opened an entire avenue of appreciation to me. Hail, Hail, creator of coksukn worlds!
Great memoir, A Life's Work. Quite a complicated man who self sabotaged himself in so many ways. The book is great not just as an autobiography, but also as intro to screenwriting. He has some useful lessons for anyone who wants to write.
Amazing, it's hard to put our loved ones diagnosed with Alzheimer's in the public light. The worst part of many diseases is how ashamed we are of being the victim of the disease or being a caregiver. We need to be more open with each other. This is human suffering. Open this up to all of us. I saw my grandma suffer through this and am terrified of seeing it happen to my dad, my brother or myself or even my daughter one day. Families should not suffer in silence. The more we witness each other's suffering, the more we will be willing to do what we need to do to help all of humanity. Let's help each other, we're all we got
I lost my father to this disease. His descent was mercifully quite gentle and gradual until almost immediately before his passing. It seems Mr Milch is dealing with the disease in much the same way, thankfully. I hadn't been aware he was suffering from AD. For his family's sake, I hope they are enjoying the time he's got left with them for as long as his faculties allow. And once those faculties are gone, I hope the end is swift and gentle. Thank you for decades of wonderful entertainment, Mr Milch.
I am on page 72 of his book and I can say that he is very very lucky to have lived through his escapades and even more so that his wife Rita stayed with him and was the key person who put their life back together after he had squanered away his fortune and I can say that to my knowledge very few women would have stayed
David, my friend, I’m so grateful for your friendship over the years. Lmk if you wanna do one more feature. I’ve seen a few scripts lately which you might find “interesting”. You and Rita are always invited to our place in Newport 👍🏻🌎💯⚡️🙏🏻, posit this, if you will....Deadwood meets Leaving Las Vegas...with an alternative happy ending.
Great interview this man is my hero I model my writing after him what he stands for his talent God bless you David milch you are a shining star in a universe so big you stand alone buddy can't wait to get the book great interview huzzah!!!!! Johnny wajda. Philly/Jax beach. Ace rns³ busloop crew 🌬️🌊🌊
David Mitch has brought so much introspective joy to me from his art. I’m forever grateful

Such a tragedy to see a brilliant man slowly fading away. Thank you David for creating a Deadwood, one of the best TV Series of all time.
Absolutely.
THE best
Best-written show in television history, IMO. Only perhaps Mad Men comes close.
@@CircuitRider best written along with Sopranos and The Wire.
One of the greatest writers America's ever known.
David, thank you, I can't express how much Deadwood inspired me in the attempt to improve my writing. Any amount of success I've had is in large part because of you and your work.
SUCH A GENIUS!!! AND TO LOSE ALL THOSE MEMORIES IS SO SAD
Just watched Deadwood again. Didn't know he was unwell. God bless you David. Thank you for your body of work.

That is amazing. He went out with a bang even with his condition.

David is great. His fantastic work on Deadwood will last forever. We would all be so greatfull to say that something we did will last forever.

An amazing and original mind with a fresh and original way of expressing deep ideas with poetic flair.

Amen. Well put
Just started David Milch's book on Audible, "Life's Work". Fantastic.
I love Deadwood 🎉❤
He has achieved immortality with his work, but it's still gut wrenching to see this brilliant mind fading.
I lost my father to this disease. His descent was mercifully quite gentle and gradual until almost immediately before his passing.

Watching John from Cincinnati right now 😊
To impede this man’s ability to create the amazing dialogues he’s responsible for is to silence a modern day Shakespeare. A true tragedy.
Just love that guy…
Thank you for Deadwood Mr. Milch. It was genius just like you ❤️
My favorite tv show has been NYPD BLUE. I am watching it from the first episode to the end.
Great to see there is still life in him. It was kind of brutal reading the interview he did with The New Yorker when the Deadwood movie was released.
Such an amazing writer and man! For his incredible mind to be lost to us especially in this way is tragic.
This is so very sad. I’m a big fan of his. Honestly me want to cry.
God blesss him
He's a brilliant writer. Hill Street Blues is also an awesome show.
A brilliant mind. 1 in a million.
Sad. Ironic. What a mind and creator.
His wife Rita is his angel, a saint.
Goddess bless you David and your family. You have enriched my life..
Great audiobook .
We're all on the way out. So what. Deadwood will live forever!!!
I am on page 72 of his book and I can say that he is very very lucky to have lived through his escapades and even more so that his wife Rita stayed with him and was the key person who put their life back together after he had squanered away his fortune and I can say that to my knowledge very few women would have stayed

Alzheimer’s is a cruel disease 😔 There are many types & causes, and it’s effects are devastating ☮️
