Her character is way overplayed and completely cartoonish throughout the whole series run.

I don't knowof course she has been "Hollywood-ized" but I can't see the real Calamity Jane talking to men like that without getting her teeth knocked in.remember, this was the lawless ol' west and I doubt she was as portrayed in the series, telling men off and threatening them.
To be sure, she was a foul mouthed, hard drinking female more like one of the guys but I think she "knew her place" and was not as direct in mouthing off when she knew there was a good chance she'd be knocked out or even shot for daring to challenge men at a time when women didn't have all the protection of the laws that they have today. -

I just started this show because everyone keeps telling me how great it is. I'm on episode 5 and I love it but Jesus I want to punch the screen every time Calamity Jane speaks, her voice and acting is almost ruining this show for me.

I always preferred "Well, the deputy deputized by the deputy sheriff tells you to SHUT THE beep UP"
She has so many good lines and rants but I feel like a lot of people overlook them because they don't like her character much.
