DirecTV customers will be “Deadwood” and “Oz” uncut, commercial free and in HD
DirecTV is more than a satellite service provider.
It also operates an original entertainment channel, The 101 Network, that features concerts (South by Southwest Music festival, for instance), never-before-seen episodes of cancelled shows and first-run episodes of “Friday Night Lights” (NBC airs the show several months later).
Now, The 101 Network is adding the acclaimed HBO series “Deadwood” and “Oz” to its lineup. And both shows will air uncut, commercial free and in HD beginning May 31.
All three seasons of “Deadwood” (36 episodes total) will air in order at 8 p.m. Sundays. The show, created and executive produced by David Milch (“NYPD Blue”), first aired on HBO in 2004 and won multiple Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe Award during its run. It stars
Ian McShane, Timothy Olyphant, Robin Weigert, Powers Booth, E.B. Farnum and Brad Dourif, and it recounts the lives of settlers within the outlaw camp of Deadwood, S.D.
All six seasons of “Oz” (56 episodes
total) will air in order at 9 p.m. Sundays. The show, executive produced by the award-winning team of Barry Levinson and Tom Fontana (“Homicide: Life on the Streets”), stars Ernie Hudson, Harold Perrineau, Lee Tergesen, J.K. Simmons, Dean Winters, Terry Kinney, Christopher Meloni and Rita Moreno. It chronicles life inside an experimental cell.
