Really shitty father and person up until the end, got the person closest to him in life Helen killed(although she also kinda died for him).

Interesting how Arlo and Raylans last interactions are, Things are closing in on Arlo, Raylan throws him life raft but Arlo sinks that fast. Raylan says this is your last chance, because someone will probably have you killed after this meeting. Arlo tells him to F off, Raylan says he’ll be glad when he hears the news of his death.

The very next scene with Arlo is basically his death scene, GET SOME GET SOME GET SOME !!! Though the next and last scene he shares with Raylan is where he whispers the last words he says to his only living son, “Kiss my ass”. Although to be fair it was pretty ballsy of Raylan to visit Arlo after everything to ask him for information. To me it kinda feels like Raylan knew he’d get nothing and just wanted to share a last moment with Arlo. But IDK.

I’m rewatching the show for the first time since I binged it last year. I’m sure my ranking of the seasons changes from time to time, but a couple things are consistent. Season Five is the worst, and Season Two is the best.

I’m currently at the tail end of S2, and I totally forgot the “Winona steals the evidence money” was a subplot of this season. This is definitely one of my least favorite subplots, totally slipped my mind it occurs during my favorite season.

Nice to see Mikey still laying down some hammer in Roadhouse even though he did take a beating in the end. About 35 minutes in for those who care 🤠

Was at the theater yesterday and Damon Herriman is in a trailer for a new movie. Instinctively I said Dewey Crowe, fairly loud.

No one else knew wtf I was talking about and it made me sad!!

Here's my list, #1 being the worst

Updated.

1. Boon * reason: he was supposed to be scary, and he was just lame. His accent, the delivery. Characters like Boyd take full control while being unpredictable.
2. Alison Brander * reason: I completely forgot about her. I was never impressed with Raylan's love stories anyways. I'm an Ava/Boyd fan, all the way!
3. David Vasquez * reason: The acting was flat. just my opinion.
4. Wendy Crowe * reason: I'm really surprised no one else liked Daryl Crowe ("This shit ain't constitutional man, I need some apply juice or something)--he was a good foil or the other characters, especially Boyd. Now Wendy was too clean cut, and I didn't buy into her motives, either because of the acting or we just don't learn much about her.
5. Robert Quarles. * reason: I'm not saying he didn't have good moments. I loved PUT THEO ON THE PHONE. I just thought he came off as the stereotypical, white collar criminal due to some missed opportunities in the story telling. We never get to see his truly dark side, especially with his interest in young boys. It ends up being glossed over.

Here's my best list.

**Excluding Raylan, because that's not fair.**

1. Boyd Crowder
2. Mags Benett
3. Art Mullen
4. Avery Markham
5. Wynn Duffy
6. Tim Gutterson
7. Katherine Hale
8. Dicky Benett

Me and my wife have just finished banshee and are starting Justified

How does it hold up?

Idk I was kinda bummed, was hoping he’d go to jail rather than bite the bullet

What a great character, total waste. Build up him as Boyd’s right hand man only for him to have the most pointless and Un impactful deaths of the show. I know season 5 is a total dumpster fire, but I can’t express how much I dislike his death scene. Whenever I get to it on a re-watch it just doesn’t work with the story. Lazy and super disappointing way to be rid of such a great character we’ve been building. Obviously it felt like they were building him up as Boyd’s loyal right hand man so they could eventually kill him off to impact Boyd. Although that’s not what happened.

Different characters and circumstances, but look at Mikey’s final scene !!! Holy shit!! Look at the way that impacted Duffy’s character. And then compare that to Jimmy Tolan’s final scene. Really? Is he even mentioned once after he dies? So lame !!!

I am watching season two. Towards the end right after Coover is shot and Raylan wants to clear the air about Winona's theft, Art says Raylan is a lousy marshall but a good law man. Why does Art think Raylan is so bad?

What a great show. Loved the ending also!

1. Season 4

2. Season 6

3. Season 2

4. Season 5

5. Season 1

6. Season 3

I appreciate the fact that we see how much better of a lawman Raylan has become in Justified: City Primeval. I’ve watched it twice, and if I recall correctly he didn’t kill a single person, and didn’t fire a shot after E1. Even as the Detroit Task Force uses excessive force and many of the same tactics he used in the original six seasons he restrains himself. Love that character development.

Edit: He totally shot Mansell at the end, but point still stands. His gun hand was a lot less active.😂

I just want to start off with saying the main reason I didn't post this in a deadwood group was because I don't want to hear all praise for it but I've heard deadwood mentioned a lot when people talk or justified and justified is my favorite show so I checked out deadwood the pilot episode and just being honest it wasn't bad but it wasn't great either or anything I just didn't fall in love with it like justified I fell in love with in the first 15 minutes does it get better as it goes so far I've only enjoyed Timothy and recognizing cast members of justified

I'm rewatching and it must be said (and probably has many times), Ava's accent gets worse by season. I'm on Season 6 and the episode wherein Boyd forces Ava to go with him to Bulletville has some notable moments where Ava's accent is so bad that it's borderline comical (wait for the moment she says "property," it will make you die a little inside).

I'm not from Kentucky but spent most of my adult life in Georgia. I'd say Goggins, Olyphant, Natalie Zea, and Nick Searcy all have commendable accents.

“…marvel at your debasement and venality. They will spit venom when they speak your name. And they will take your suicide as the last act of a coward. Now your reputation is ruined, your good word worthless, but death will not be the end of your suffering. For generations your children, and your children's children will have a mark against their name, and that will be your legacy.”

Both as a team.

Then each one on one.

Then mix match

Raylan and Arthur.

Raylan and John.

Boyd and John.

Boyd and Arthur.

What group wins.

Who wins one on one.

What mix match would win.

And let's see who would win over all.

Raylan Givens has to run the gauntlet . If he arrests or kills his opponent ,he clears the level. Does her clear the gauntlet or does he die trying

Warm Up Level: 3XK (from Castle)

Level 1 : Ryan O Reilly (From OZ)

Level 2: Marco and Leonel Salamanca (The Cousins From Breaking Bad)

Level 3 : Rip Wheeler (From Yellowstone)

Level 4 : Arthur Mitchell (aka The Trinity Killer) (From Season 4 of Dexter)

Level 5: Omar Little (From The Wire)

Level 6: Issac Parker (From Mayans MC)

Level 7: Kai Proctor (From Banshee)

Level 8: Lorne Malvo (From Fargo Season 1)

Level 9 : Brian Moser (aka Ice Truck Killer) (from Season 1 of Dexter)

Level 10: Gus Fring (From Breaking Bad)

I really hate how S4/S5 Art came not to trust Raylan. He sends both Tim and Rachel with him more often and has a much more stoic attitude towards him. Adds to the drama of the show for sure, but I truly just hate how after the Tarmac Shooting and the whole evidence locker room money debacle kind of strained their relationship smh.

For me I’ll always be a big fan of “rock hard times for Dewey Crowe” but I loved Boyd’s “ABCs” in that one episode of season 2

Had a reverse shoulder arthroplasty this past Wednesday. Finally feeling like anesthesia after-effects have worn off so was looking for a good way to spend my long recovery. It’s been about 5 years since I watched Justified and had forgotten how amazing it was. Great way to spend my couch time!
