I haven't seen Justified but I enjoy Blue Bloods, it's easy to watch and entertaining for the most part.

from the first 3 or 4 it seems quite individual episode based, does a plot start to form, i find a lot of shows these days seem to be that way

There is a rough plot line, but it isn't in every episode. It also changes a bit and there are a few different plots in the end.

Blue Bloods is such generic ****, the lawyer who bangs on about justice for all and the brother cop who will intimidate or hit suspects, blah blah blah. Its so massively painfully generic and carbon copy of every other show mashed together, completely tosh.

Justified, significantly better than Blue Bloods, some great actors, some great episodes, it does get a bit samey but overall the strong cast, and generally decent stories makes it worth while.

Justified is the best thing on TV.

Blue Bloods is ok.

I'll have to watch Justified then, I like Timothy Olyphant, good actor!

Justified is great! Watch it!

Develops massively from the 'criminal of the week' start, it's ace

Justified is one of the best shows to come from American TV in the past 20 years. Plus, Natalie Zea, Raylan's wife, is smoking hot!

Justified is up there with the wire and the shield for me.

Its utterly fantastic.

Good man!

 

[Werewolf]

Justified is great, especially the amount of character background as you go through it (not to mention a certain amount of alliances of convenience that often don't last an episode).

 

[_Jimlad_]

Good man!

yeah good call on that one, reminds me of 'the shield' slightly

The first season of Justified is patchy, the second season however is simply brilliant.

Basically this. It really develops when they start giving it proper season-long storylines.

Justified is amazing but I also enjoy blue bloods and dont you just cringe when they have there Sunday dinners its hilariously over the top American propaganda

 

[Rich_L]

I can't watch Blue Bloods without thinking of Entourage and how Donnie Wahlberg is the model that Johnny Drama was built on (i.e. the less successful, less attractive copy of the movie star older brother) - they even sound the same!!

You won't regret it, especially from season two on.......Raylan Givens is simply awesome.

 

[SixTwoSix]

I gave Blue Bloods until mid way through season 2 and gave up, it's all too nice and wrapped up at the end up each episode.
