Appreciation post: rewatching Deadwood after losing my dad made it hit way different

I binged Deadwood back in 2012 and thought it was just a slow western, but after my dad passed last spring I rewatched it and suddenly all the scenes about building something from nothing and loyalty clicked way harder. Comparing my first watch to now is like two totally different shows, the pacing that bored me before now feels like real life where nothing wraps up neat. Anyone else have a canceled show that changed meaning for them after some life event?

Grief turns slow pacing into something you need to sit with.
