July 17, 20187 yr Season 2 and 3 just gets better and better, then a slight dip in S4 and 5, then finishes with a bang in S6.
July 17, 20187 yr Season 5 was underrated, but had more potential. Unlike all of Raylan's other foils, the Crowe family had no goal. They were pure, Florida, white, trash. All they ever set out to do was to be trashier than the day before. That's dangerous. Recast Darrell Crowe, and keep Danny Crowe around a bit longer, and Season 5 coulda be as good as Season 2. Also:

July 19, 20187 yr Just finished season 4. Still fun, liked the mystery aspect of it that isn’t there with the first 3. Ellen May, bless her heart.
July 20, 20187 yr I liked the stay frosty reference in the school too. Can't find a clip of it on youtube though. The fact they can put together such a good show with fairly unknown actors is too often overlooked.
July 24, 20187 yr Great series, great characters. Raylen Givens, Arlo Givens, Bo Crowder, Ava Crowder, Mags Bennett, Dickie Bennett, Dewey Crowe, Art Mullen, Judge Reardon.

July 25, 20187 yr Tim was a little more subtle. I don't recall them really digging into his character that much. Put any three or four of the characters I listed into a room together and you have an interesting party. Tim would disappear into the background. Probably trying to get a good angle for his sniper rifle to take them out.
July 27, 20187 yr Spent the last couple of weeks binge watching this show. Phenomenal. As has been said, tons of great characters and all around very entertaining. Finale was perfect.
July 28, 20187 yr About halfway through s5 and it’s not nearly the drop off as some of you made it seem. Only issue is believing that goomba Michael rappaport as Florida swamp trash, but he is pulling it off well enough that I’m coming around.
July 28, 20187 yr I like that they don’t have all the Kentucky folk be dumb like Dewey and Ellen may. Most are uneducated, but it’s obvious the guys like Boyd are smart, and they give him some nice phrases and vocabulary to make the point.
August 1, 20187 yr Author Since I started this, I thought I would update. We just finished Season 1 — we are hooked. Great writing, very good and interesting characters and acting, well-paced. I like it so much I have almost forgiven Timothy Olyphant for the terrible acting job he did in “Live Free or Die Hard”

The show has a drastic changed from Season 1 onward.
August 4, 20187 yr So there’s been characters named Gordon Keith and Grubes now. Can’t be coincidence. What’s the connection between the show and the Ticket?
August 4, 20187 yr Writer/Producer VJ Boyd is a P1. http://www.theunticket.com/e-news-with-bob-and-dan-1-28-15/
August 16, 20187 yr Halfway through season 6. I’ll save my final thoughts till the end. That said, can’t seem to enjoy a nice evening out these days without Raylan Givens showing up too...
August 16, 20187 yr I like how bob bought the crown Vic, which I’m sure was to be like raylan as best he could. I guess it could be because they are police cruisers, but I choose to believe it was for raylan.
August 25, 20187 yr He is. Randomly I spotted him in The Worlds Fastest Indian last night. Which is a great movie btw.

August 30, 20187 yr It's been a few years since I watched Justified. Might be time to go back and re-watch one of my all-time favorite shows.
August 30, 20187 yr The best part of the show is when they introduce a character and you get to wonder how long it will be before Raylan kills them.
August 31, 20187 yr Binge worthy-except for the Maryland game, this has priority for the three day weekend.

August 31, 20187 yr Mykelti Williamson also very good and McDonough an excellent semi-benevolent psychopath (with short fingers that rival Trump's).
August 31, 20187 yr There’s also an episode where Chadwick Boseman/King T'Challa gets shot by Rachel at a pizza fun time place.
November 19, 20187 yr Watched the series over the last 3 months. Really good to great show. They really couldn't have ended it much better and loved how the last line(s) of the show led straight to the "thank you harlen county residents" credit. I thought for sure if I searched youtube I'd fine some compilation of all the times Boyd says hi or welcomes Raylan as he walks in, but no. Would be hilarious to hear over an over "Well Raylan Givens! To what do I owe this most unexpected surprise?!" Also the show is very bad for somebody trying to cut down on bourbon consumption...

If only we had known that every bourbon they name checked on the show should be bought out posthaste we could have saved some heartache. (Actually I only remember Pappy and Elmer T Lee).
December 19, 20187 yr Author Bump. I started this thread soI could see if it was worth watching. We are now on Season 4 (we mix in other things). Awesome. My wife and Both love it. Great characters, great writing. Just sorry there are only 6 seasons...
December 19, 20187 yr I made it through two seasons pretty easily. I am about half way through season 3, and honestly kinda bored with it. I like the characters, but the story line to me is already pretty stale.
December 19, 20187 yr started this thread a couple weeks ago... and couldn't even get a bite. figured at least @BigOrange1 would've surfaced. i've since finished the show. ended strong, but i agree, parts of s4/s5 were probably the low point. when you're in binge mode, some of the stories in those seasons got pretty repetitive and predictable. not in my top 10, but a solid watch.
