That's my prediction, not the final word. But HBO executives were extremely evasive yesterday when asked about the prospects for the two, two-hour Deadwood wrap-up movies that have been on the drawing boards for a year or so.

All the actors have scattered to the winds. More importantly, David Milch, the creator and executive producer, is "exhausted" from doing John From Cincinnati, and if that show is picked up, he'll be doing that, with no time for Deadwood.

When pressured, the suits put the Deadwood wrap-up odds at 50-50, but that seems optimistic.

As for Carnivale, for which I have also gotten inquiries: Dead, dead, dead, dead. No more Carnivale. Ever. Forget it. Move on.
