Anyone else really enjoying this. Its buried away a little on Five USA on Weds nights but its a very entertaining series based on Elmore Leonard characters.

Cracking cast , besides Timothy Olyphant, the fella that plays Boyd Crowder is brilliant ( Walton Goggins ), understand he was also very good in The Shield , a series i'm considering watching after seeing him in this .


Justified is the story of Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, a 19th Century-style true-blue hero clad in Stetson and cowboy boots. Tough but softly-spoken, Givens enforces his own personal brand of justice that's as at conflict with American law as it is with the criminals. After shooting a gun thug in a Miami hotel and incurring the wrath of his superiors, Givens is sent - as punishment, or by fate - to his Kentucky hometown, where his ex-wife is shacked up with somebody new, his former best friend is a murderous white supremacist, and nobody ever offers him some southern hospitality...

Goggins is great in The Shield.

I saw the first episode of Justified and, with the exception of Goggins, thought it was pretty bland television. When his character got shot at the end of that episode I assumed that if he didn't die he'd either be absent or sidelined for a couple of episodes so I gave up on it.
