A thread for JUSTIFIED, a TV show on FX starring Timothy Olyphant

truthbomb

poor ol dewey

I love that Raylan doesn't care about "shitkicker on shitkicker crime".

"Today is opposite day" LOL

i liked the second season a lot, i think the thing i liked about the show is that it often feels like and is structured as if it were a procedural crime show but the actual narrative is closer to the longer season-long sweep of a cable drama. so its satisfying in a regular, dependable way but still manages to give the storylines some space and time to breathe and conflict and deepen.

"Oh, I didn't bring a knife!"

olyphant's line readings have become real things of beauty

kinda bummed re: no hat in this ep. But he kicked ass.

great episode

loved how the "next one's coming faster" line showed up again. also how art's beating the shit out of that suspect showed up again. what a great show.

and the re-iteration via Winona of "what am I, an asshole?", and every single one of Gutterson's lines...

this is the only thing on tv i get jumpy about not having watched if it's already aired cause I'm afraid i'll catch a spoiler

No surprise, but it was renewed for a fourth season.

:D

The face-off between Raylan and Win Duffy last week, in the empty room...they were throwing some A+ oneliners at each other.

Loved Stephen Tobolowsky's bit part as the FBI guy.

damn really looking forward to this tonight.

me too

Qualls is one freaky mofo

I've only watched the first season so far, but I did just see "The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia," which totally makes even the most ridiculous scenarios of this show seem totally plausible.

Goddamn this was a good episode.

I love Dicky Bennett's crazy Kaczynski steez at the hearing, and the way his mullet has grown out into a crazy fauxhawk

"i already got a father"
"i know i met him"
"good point, go on"

I've enjoyed this show all season, but I wasn't quite sure if they had a solid enough idea of where all these disparate threads were heading, so this episode was exactly what I needed. All the elements moving together, as well as continuing to subvert expectations on the 'powerful' Detroit operator. I just hope Adam Arkin turns up again.

Fucking great this week.
probably not quite as good as last year but still the best show on the teevee. really psyched for the windup next week.

it's weird how preordained all this shit is
like you KNOW that babyhead is gonna die in the last ep and that black bbq mobster is gonna live to fight another day
one is justified, the other ain't

I had an argument with my friend last week who swore up and down that Dickie was going to get offed

To me they don't have a show if they don't keep Dickie, Raylan and Boyd in the mix. I mean, def Raylan and Boyd, but Dickie adds that unknown extra factor whenever he shows up, because he's just smart enough to not get killed but dumb enough to fuck things up for everyone.

I think they have a few options for that wild card character... Raylan's dad, Dewey Crow, any ol' shitkicker hooker they choose to give more than ten lines
Dickie definitely developed into a real humdinger of a type this go-round

was anyone else surprised that Erroll wasn't really rolling over on limehouse?

i love how everyone constantly comments on and insults quarles looks, excellent running joke

well he clearly ain't from around there

I hope Dickie sticks around for another season, I can't even imagine how awesome his hair would become.

I love the joke from the previous episode, where the drugdealer's mom says Quarles was 'husky' and they have that whole conversation about him being fat until she reveals that no, he looked like a sled dog, lolololol

ha yes totally, also this ep 'big baby head'

it didnt look like dickie was shot to death fwiw xp

I have loved Jeremy Davies for a long time but I had no idea he had Dickie Bennett in him. Dude is AWESOME every episode he's in. Maybe one of my favorite characters.

yeah, i think they woulda shown him dead if he was dead
babyhead is so so so dead now; you don't get to kill cops on this show unless they're crooked

babyhead as win duffy's nickname is my favorite thing ever

lol in conversation w/boyd he calls him 'the big stupid babyhead'

oh shit she did too looool

she = he

So who ends up offing Arlo next week? My money's on Boyd.

oh hello

this was great

oh shit, forgot! watching now!

"oh shit it's a piggy bank!"

that ruled

woww

disarmed him

oh man the piggy bank moment was pretty good

v exciting finale!

I liked it a lot but it left a lot of loose threads? Would've appreciated a half hour more of wrap up.
Ultimately not quite as strong in toto as season two imo based on that ending but still hit a real sweet spot
Glad to see Limehouse will be an ongoing major character.
And is BabyHead dead? That felt potentially open?
