Yep. The series is based on a story by the late Elmore Leonard. Hollywood must have made a dozen movies based on Elmore books, but almost none of them seemed to see the sly humor in the man's books. (Get Shorty being an exception). Good for Graham Yost, the head writer guy on Justified. He got Leonard and the Leonard humor.Shafpocalypse Now wrote:You know what I like about Justified the best?

+1. This humor, and a director who knows to direct efficient Leonard-style dialogue, make even the throw away episodes worth watching.seeahill wrote:Yep.

Dead dirty Coastie, killed by one of the Crows, then the Crow was killed by other Crows (and fed to a gator) and the Cuban who was with them and gets the blame for the first killing was killed by Raylan and another Fed.

I say this season Raylan shoots 8, killing 6 and wounding 2. (1 will be an intended wounding the other will just luck out the .45 puts you down hard but sometimes does not go deep enough to shred stuff.)

Shit forgot about the Bridge scene.Cave Canem wrote:10- Coast Guard guy, 3 guys trying to rip off Boyd, chain saw guy and the Canadian he was killing, that rat weasel OC guy, Dilly Crow, the Cuban and the funeral home director.....but I still feel like I'm forgetting one.

I don't think he will fuck her, too skankish for him.
His bottom of the barrel is fucking a chick at some bar, but the one who never fucks anyone from that place.

Ava was one of my favorite characters in S1, but by season 3 she just kind of felt like a sort of sad sack addendum to Boyd Crowder.
S4 didn't improve that.
I think I read that S6 is probably the last.

After the debacle of Homeland this year (Still haven't watched the season finale), I'm not going to just give up on the shows that are still decent.
This show is an American treasure.

The Crowes make me laugh. Dilly should have lasted longer. Almost dumber than Dewey. Duffy had the "what the f*** have I gotten myself into" look the whole time with Boyd. Should be funny watching those two try to get a "business" going.

She's hot in that Shelley Duvall kind of way. She went from being dumb to simple. Best female character since Mags.The Crawdaddy wrote:

Loved the stand off scene, gets a little more into why Raylan is Raylan.
I get the impression he knows there is a lot more of Arlo in him then he wants to admit and becoming a Marshall was a way to not get fucked over by those traits as much as Arlo did being on the "wrong" side of the law, so Raylan joined the Empire.

I wonder what's going to come of Boyd being partnered up with the Crowes.
