Deadwood to End as TV Movies

HBO and creator, David Milch have decided on how they will end the popular drama, Deadwood.

The cable network reached an agreement with Milch to wrap up the show as a pair of two-hour movies rather than a full-blown fourth season, says The Hollywood Reporter. The issue of whether HBO would order a fourth season was forced in recent weeks by the fact that the cast members' contractual options for a fourth season are due to expire soon.

The full third season of Deadwood premieres tonight on HBO; Milch was offered a six-episode pickup for Season 4 rather than the 12-episode norm.
