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

deadwood

star wars (emperor)

sexy beast

good example

s3 > s2 > s1 imo

agree

season 3 definitely the funniest season

definitely, even in the darker eps, like the finale.

oh sure, much funnier. less tight.

s3 of Justifies was kind of like s3 of Sons of Anarchy in terms of a lot of setup for an amazing last couple of episodes, though Justified is a better show. And that's a fine strategy for a 13-episode season as long as the last few deliver.

I agree. Though in terms of story I still prefer S2.

Quarles is a decent bad guy, and Winn Duffy is A+, but Mags was just so much more convincing and real to me.

the overall themes surrounding mags and the mining co are pretty strong too; the community being destroyed by greed and the ways in which greed inevitably corrupts those with any chance of fighting it are pretty poignant too. nothing quite on that level in s3.

definitely - s2 carried strongly the whole way through whereas s3 was kind of waiting around for things to merge. Glad they left more people standing at the end of this season, the only thing I didn't like about s2 was how many characters were eliminated (not Mags though, that was pretty much perfect).

Given that season three was all about the hat in the end, I felt like it should have had more hat.

hard to beat mags tbh but i think all seasons are great on their own merits lets not fight

lol otm

pretty ice cold way to end it, that was great

s1 was kind of a different show in retrospect. I'm not even sure Raylan had any confirmed kills this season.

felt like the resolution of this season was notably more sophisticated storytelling wise than anything that preceded it

Posted on the Sons of Anarchy thread, but worth knowing about even if you don't watch:

well then

Holy fuck, is that Shane from The Shield?

(Never watched this show, BTW, just opened the thread to idly see what the consensus about it is here)

Yeah. That's the Goggins.

yep he is also Shane from the Shield

oops xpost

So should I watch Justified? Shane being in it makes me more inclined to.

yes

it's required in life

also if you enter this thread you cannot leave til you've watched it iirc

Well if those are the rules I suppose I'd better.

*taps foot*

Justified is good. Second season is amazing.

Second season makes it all worthwhile

I saw Mags in that stupid Person of Interest show, made me think I want to rewatch the whole series again and hang with Mags again

S3 > S2 imo but I seem to be alone in that assessment

otm

in that you are alone, not that s3 is better :)

I'll take the ballooning chaos and increased LOLs over the pretty-predictable season arc we got last year, despite Martindale's awesomeness.

Justified is just such an all-around great, entertaining show, with perfect writing and plenty of color (like Elmore himself). Can't wait for it to come back.

otm

I want Raylan back so bad. Everyone in my family is getting Justified DVDs for Christmas.

nice

"Why don't we just watch it now? It's festive!"

I bought it for my brother in law when he joined the US Marshalls. I don't think he ever watched it.

My biggest problem with season 3 is that the bad guy keeps drinking Pappy Van Winkle, and I kept thinking, how the hell did he find a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle?!

NICE RACK ON THA GOGGINS
