There are a lot of coded reviews about this...mostly based on politics. And, unfortunately, it's the worst kind. The despise all things remotely rural for intelligentsia snobbery politics kind. In other words, you break down a lot of the negative reviews, and most of them really tend to be based around the fact that it takes place in Kentucky and tells the story of people living in the country. Moving past that it's Elmore Leonard and stories don't get much cooler than him. Plus it's the merging of Elmore Leonards famed westerns with Elmore Leonards famed crime novels and...if you can't…

This has to be one of the most overlooked TV shows of recent years. Crammed full of excellent characters played brilliantly by the cast. All headlined by Timothy Olyphant channeling his inner Eastwood but with a more wry, modern twist. But the show is stolen by Walton Goggins as the main protagonist Boyd Crowder.

This is my favourite show of all time , Timothy Olyphant is an incredible actor , as is everyone else in the show, especially stars like Walton Goggins and Margot Martindale. Justified is definetley an overlooked show , the plot lines are amazing and it constantly keeps you hooked . Raylan's attitude and personality is one of the things in the show that keeps drawing you back , along with his relationship with Boyd both personally and proffesionaly . This show is incredible and definetley deserves more credit.
