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

*clutches pearls*

Oh yeah, as far as feuds go, it's a rather ... rarified conflict.

bustin makes him feel good

Can totally imagine him a character in the show, tbh. Interloping wine bigwig heads down to Kentucky to get a bead on bourbon, bites off more than he can chew, is "convinced" by Boyd to highly rate some shitty swill he's drummed up for a quick buck.

"That's a fiiiine bordeaux you got there Mista Parker. But if you don't mind me saying so, I believe you done brought yourself a knife to a gunfight. So why don't you take your refined 55 point ass out of my establishment before my associate decides to pop your cork... with a 45. Do I make myself clear?"

"Now down here in Kentucky, we consider ourselves fine judges of whiskey. But perhaps not as fine as you, Mr. Parker. The way I see it, if a whiskey gets you good and drunk, that whiskey is as good as perfect. Now, you might say this bottle here is ten points better than that bottle over there, but I say, if you're talking about it more than drinkin' it, you have no business drinkin' it at all."

woo! this whole show is on amazon prime now so i can catch up w/ s03 (s04 is still for-pay)

\m/

Seriously feel like s2/3/4 are all very different but equally awesome.

otm

i just finished the 1st season and

You know what I would love: SOA/Justified crossover episode. Imagine Clay and Raylan facing off....

is otm.

Not even a contest imo, Raylan would put that motherfucker down with a smile.

it's all over when he puts on the hat

Drewbacca!

Finally getting into (and loving) this, after a post-BB break from serial tv. About six episodes into S2 now.

Season 5 coming next month, it is so good.

can't wait!!!

the teaser looks p great, I love it when he pops the pool

I have been seeing these short trailers featuring Crows and reading about Dewey's cousin being the next nemesis. Damn it I just want to see if Art, Rachel and Constable Bob are all getting full length episodes or something like that.

about to get the first two eps in the mail, yesss

the teaser looks p great, I love it when he pops the pool

he poops in the pool in season 5??? Damn it's gonna be a long month

Alicia Witt is joining the cast

woo hoo!

haha yes

Well this was fucking great btw. Off to the races right from the start.
"James or Wade?"
"Boy or girl?"
"Girl."
"I'd go Wade."
*patented olyphant half-smirk eyebrow raise*

so good!

Yeah, this was great, as ever. The sugar-smuggling thing was a classic Elmore Leonard-style caper.

Good premiere, next week's is good too. I'm expecting it'll take a little while to kick into high gear as there are many moving parts this season.

hope sasso and foley make more appearances as the mean canadians

rappaport <3

I love it that the kickstarter for this season is a lowlife getting a payout from the law, so Justified. Rappaport just blends in seamlessly and is very good. I enjoyed watching Raylan squinting and cringing through all the family talk shit, don't want him going soft!

as always, i liked the yin/yang of raylan paying 300k to fuck up dewey and getting away with it, then boyle trying to pay 300k to get ava out of prison and just when it looks like it won't work because of class strata, crowder shows that violence will out

Next season will be its last. Good move.

but...but I want it to go on forever ;_;

if they could get John Hawkes to play the main bad guy in the final season I would be very happy.

He was just named as co-starring in Charlie Kaufman's forthcoming FX comedy so I wouldn't bank on that.

but...but I want it to go on forever ;_;

I am disappointed because this isn't like BE where it is tied to an era, this could fucking go on for easily a few more.

end all good shows before they turn into vague imitations of themselves imo

yeah glad to see it has an end in sight, makes me more excited to get back on board this season

gonna agree there, especially with leonard passing.

This season isn't grabbing me yet. Too many new ingredients without clearing away the old dishes. Darryl Crowe, the mortician's wife and the creepy trooper who's after her, Loretta's boyfriend, Hot Rod's pair of enforcers, the Canadians. It's turning into too jumbled a mess.

Oh great! Haven't seen the latest episode yet, but one of the funnest things about Justified is it's jumbled-mess-ness.

Alicia Witt being part of the Crowe family is really something

spending a lot more time spotting the familiar faces than actually giving a fuck what happens to anyone. hoping this current storyline goes somewhere more gripping than "which old dude stole a lot of money in the '70s?"

maybe they could finally have raylan actually deal with the death of his dad already

I kinda don't put in the effort to follow the plot anymore, it's always so convoluted. Detroit! Harlan! Miami! Crowders! Givenses! Crowes! Who gives a fuck, I'm here to be charmed in the moment.

let's be honest, we watch for this

ha otm

yeah i mean its still the guys we like being all badass with unexpected character actors popping up every ten minutes but its gotten soapier and samier - if they don't have something REALLY HAPPEN soon (and jesus if arlo dying didn't particularly faze raylan what will) i'm worried it's just gonna become backwoods entourage

There is a true joy of plot, character and writing in this show. As long as it has that, it could never ever become Entourage, no matter how unfazed Raylan can be by everything.
