    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    The first season was definitely the sloppiest, but I loved damn near every episode in it (starting with one of the best damn pilots ever). This season was far more cohesive than the first season, but it just never quite took off. Season one, everything's fresh and new and exciting, because...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    A so-so finale for easily the weakest season yet. That being said, the developments in the last fifteen minutes setting up the finale season have me excited as hell. Raylan versus Boyd is the confrontation I've been waiting all season for. And Mary Steenburgen's line about Boyd being lousy at...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    Part of the uphill battle for him is that his Daryl Crowe Jr. is following in the footsteps of Mags Bennett, Robert Quarles and Nicky Augustine who are in my opinion three of the finest TV villains ever.

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    Danny's untimely demise reminded me quite a bit of one of the big deaths from the climax of Out of Sight.

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    This season still isn't firing on all cylinders like last year, but I enjoyed tonight's episode. The wheels within wheels with the Mexico shenanigans was fun. More importantly, after all of the shades of gray with Raylan in the aftermath of what went down on the airport tarmac in last season's...

    Wow, talk about a game changer of an ending! My guess is that the crazy Crowe is not long for this world.Looks like things are quickly coming to a head between Raylan and Art.Loved Raylan being impressed with the one-legged hacker's escape. Really loved Raylan rejecting Wendy Crowe's advances.I...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    This was my favorite so this season, in that I truly didn't know which way things were going to turn out from moment to moment. It's nice to see a bit of season one Ava back, a survivor in her own right who isn't dependent on male protection. It was a little distracting seeing Danielle Panabaker...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    Three just absolutely terrific scenes in last night's episode: the cold open with Boyd bringing about the downfall of Lee Paxton, the diner scene that was a thing of absolute beauty, and then the final beat.Raylan was in the clear. Picker gave him a cover. But at the end of the day, that's just...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    Just a great hour of television tonight. The cold open with Dewey and Wade really set the tone for the whole episode. I went into that scene thinking I understood both characters very well. I left that scene realizing that I didn't know either character at all. The show has had such fun with...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    It was classic Elmore Leonard that way a couple of misunderstandings set the dominoes falling in tonight's episode.I hope Wade makes it. There's something about his expression every time his life is threatened, like he's wondering why someone hasn't killed him already, that makes me root for him.

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    As fun as it was in the premiere to see Raylan and Boyd in Elmore Leonard's two favorite literary playpens, there's just an added urgency and magic only seems to exist for the show in Harlan. Something felt a bit disconnected last week, but that absolutely wasn't the case this week. Was that the...

    Entertainment Weekly: FX confirms sixth season will be the last for 'Justified'It's official. Showrunner Graham Yost and star/executive producer went to FX head John Landgraf and asked the network to stick with their long-held six year plan, and he "regretfully accepted their decision."So the...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    Strong premiere. I loved that it opened with an excessive force civil lawsuit, since I've been waiting for that shoe to drop pretty much since day one. I liked that Raylan testified honestly. And as always, Dewey Crowe's reaction was classic.I liked that they borrowed Steven Soderbergh's trick...

    Justified - Season 5 (FX)

    I don't think there's ever been a formal announcement, but in interviews creator/showrunner Graham Yost has consistently said he envisions the show as a 5-6 season show. Given that this is season five, and we've heard nothing about it being the final season, it seems all but certain that next...
