Wednesdays after Sons of Anarchy - 11pm?

SoA, that's one on my list, but I need to watch it from series 1, ep 1.

Justified is excellent. Olyphant's laconic style is just perfect.

First episode was on last night.
Cracking opening to the series, absolutely loved his tablecloth trick, not what I was expecting but very inventive/amusing.

Pity that the bad guy Raylan shot went in the first episode,he was quite funny and creepy.Next ones on Wednesday at 9pm.

[SpeedBash]

Agreed, top episode.

I'm not sure the bad guy is gone for good - Givens only seemed to shoot him in the arm.

[Halb]

This show keeps getting better.

Nuanced acting, great storyline and pace. Can't tell where the story is going to go next. This is in the A class for me now.

[toppstuff]

Agreed. It is terrific.

Hope they make more.

Cracker of an episode last night to end season 3 - can't wait for season 4.

This really is a little gem of a show.

Nice article which thinks likewise here

I was only going to post about this last night (only seen penultimate ep though, not the last).
I almost can't believe how the plot changes and twists, the curve balls. You think it'll go one way, and it doesn't, but then it doesn't go the new way either. The complex changing means you really have to play attention. It equals Game of Thrones and Braquo in realistic character reactions which lead to natural plot changes imo.
The way it had several different groups all vying for a goal in the penultimate episode was a treat, I love it when scriptwriters did that, and then there was one curve ball and another so the bank heist never happened but everyone still got to their goals.
Quarrles has to be one of the better characters of this year to emerge anywhere.

I'll second that. He's unbelievably likeable despite being a complete .

Wasn't that fantastic ! Great finale.

And a new series has been commissioned !

I know, and he isn't a perfect unbeatable bad guy either, he is quite flawed and gets stuff wrong as well. Very well written and acted character.
Starting to like Wynn Duffy as well.

Watched it!
Yeah, again the twists make it riveting.
The denouement for Quarrles and the Marshall was amazing, and it made me look at Limehouse in a new light as well. Not in the same company as Boyd and the rest.
And that chop was unexpected and amazing.

[Halb]

Seen a few adverts for this.
Reread the last few posts, I had forgotten how ace it had gotten, with Quarrels and the rest.

Sad it gets dumped on Channel 5 US.

[im]

Sad it's not on Sky On-Demand in the 'Box Sets' section so the rest of us could catch-up.

[Halb]

That would be good. It is a show that gets better as it goes on, and it started off pretty good to begin with. Raylan and Boyd are great characters.

Maybe it's on the Channel 5 version?

[Halb]

Anyone know when this starts?

My fave US cop drama. Love to know when it is back

If you watch it via online sources the season finale is coming up next week, cant wait for it.
