Title: Justified
Post by: mirth on January 09, 2014, 06:17:32 PM
Season 5 just started. If you're not watching it, WTF is wrong with you?!  :o

Seriously, it's an outstanding show. Great cast, great writing, the dialogue is some of the best ever in a TV show. Each episode is a gem.

Love the show but wasn't in-love with the new season opener. The Kill-a-thon just seemed like they were trying to get rid of all last seasons left-over cast members. Did like the Florida location shots. Anybody know where they filmed it at? Looked like Clewiston near Lake Okeechobee to me.
Title: Re: Justified
Post by: mirth on January 10, 2014, 01:03:27 PM
The season opener wasn't the show at it's best, but it did have some highlights:

I was glad to see Jere Burns added as a regular cast member. He's been excellent over the past couple seasons as a guest star. It looks like he will be featured more prominently this season and I welcome it.

Michael Rappaport should be interesting as a bad guy.

Dave Foley and Will Sasso were pretty friggin funny. I hope they turn up again, though it seems like that was a one-off.

I thought the subplot with Winona and the baby was handled well. It will be interesting how fatherhood will shape Raylan going forward. And seeing Natalie Zea is never a disappointment.

I can live with that. Six seasons is a good run. If we're lucky, we'll get a TV movie or two after.

If only Firefly or Deadwood could have had six seasons :(

^That was not the end I was expecting for Danny-boy. Not that I was in anyway expecting him to make it through the season.

This has been an interesting season. Lots of different stories being played out. The road Ava has been forced down is not what I saw for her character.

The Dickie Bennett scene was gold.

Their primary role is (1) to hunt and capture escaped prisoners, (2) protect the federal judiciary, and (3) transport federal prisoners. The FBI is primarily investigative while police departments are local law enforcement limited by boundaries. That's my understanding backed up by Google-fu.

Interestingly enough, a marshal may also deputize a citizen in an emergency. That traces back to old West days and as far as I know is unique to the Marshal's service among Federal agencies.
Title: Re: Justified

The Marshal Service is the dedicated enforcement arm of the Federal Courts.

Title: Re: Justified
Post by: mirth on April 09, 2014, 04:11:18 PM
The best part of the season is that he didn't kill a single Crowe.

That was a great end to the season. The final season should be epic and I'm beginning to think Raylan isn't going to survive it.

After you told me to see it coming I still didn't grokk the where, when, and how.

Also, the scene with the armadillo in the foreground and the vehicle throwing dust in the background... I've seen it before. An homage to 'Vanishing Point' maybe?

My parents and I started season 4 a while back but got off on some other shows for a while; need to get back for catching up to the final season.

Back in the early 70s, they took trips to Harlan County to sell our company's well covers; and both come from somewhat similar cultural stock (Dad on the swamp coasts of Florida, Mom from West TN fields), so they really enjoy watching it. They personally 'know' 'all those people' (i.e. equivalents thereof).

Maybe the guy he killed in Miami in the first 30 sec. of the show. He's certainly nailed a lot of people in this show. And arrested quite a few too. ::)
