Why you always so mad, Seth?

Here's another profile of Timothy Olyphant, this time from the New Zealand Herald. (Yes, really.)

What makes this one interesting is that Olyphant talks a little bit about Seth Bullock's character, and where, according to David Milch, his always simmering rage comes from.

What Milch didn't explain to the audience, however - although he explained it to Olyphant - was that as a child Bullock might have been regularly beaten by his father.

"So I asked, 'Are you going to tell the audience that too?' But David's willing to put this behaviour in that is not explained or in the story."

No word from Olyphant or Milch on the origins of Seth's pre-bedtime sweetness with Martha, however.

Olyphant also has a few other good quotes on just what makes the show so appealing, but I'll let you catch those when you read the article.
