When we first met Raylan Givens he was giving a Miami gun-thug two minutes to get out of town. Then he shot him dead. Since then he’s taken on the Crowders, the Bennetts, the Detroit mob (twice) and he tracked down Drew Thompson. This is besides the various and sundry bad guys (and girls) that he’s busted or killed along the way.
Starting tonight Raylan takes on the murderous Crowe family. (We already met Dewey, now we meet his kin.) Join us on FX at 10 p.m. for a trip to Harlan County and Season 5 of Justified!
This is an open thread.
“He pulled first.” – Raylan Givens
There are people living in Eastern Kentucky who can trace their bloodlines back to the time of Daniel Boone. They were living there before coal mining came along, and they’ll still be there when the coal is all gone.
My dad’s family traces back to Daniel Boone. I’m about halfway through the first season of Justified on Amazon. Can I watch the current season or is this one of those shows you have to watch in order to really enjoy it?
It’s best to watch it in order.
THIS IS NOT AN ENDORSEMENT:
I so love the new Dem meme of “if you care about fairness,opportunity & democracy…”. Cracks me up. Of course they don’t give a crap about fairness, etc. Just look at the results of the war on poverty or the Obama economy. They had a supermajority and could do anything they wanted, and look what they chose to do. QED.
They racked up a huge victory in an an election with candidates so lacking that nobody voted. A campaign DiBlasio filled with race baiting and class warfare. A pox on their huge victory with all its stupidity and devisiveness.
one of the few shows worth watching on today’s TV
My favorite show — and the best part is that international film star & Peabody awarding winning actor Nick Searcy is in it (and he’s awesome, of course).
He’s awesome and a fearless conservative in Hollywood. An inspiration anyway you want to cut the cake.
Wheee! Justified!
I had the great fortune to spend some time with Dewey Crowe (Damon Herriman) last year. He’s a blast. So thrilled he’s back. Dewey is one of my favourite characters ever.
I found a link to a free internet channel live-streaming crime shows (like Montalbano and Arne Dahl) from italy, Germany and Sweden at 6 and 9PM (one or 2 shows each evening). It has kept me sane until the new season starts here:

Thanks for the reminder. I just began watching Justified this weekend. I’m not very far into it, but it is as good as you all said.
Second Season of House of Cards begins on Netflix on Valentine’s Day.

What a fantastic mind! His elucidation is exceeded only by his vocabulary.
If he ever had any marbles to begin with, he lost them.
“Dennis Rodman” has been synonymous with “freak show” for a long time now.
2016 just got a little more interesting …..

Very interesting.

Being downunder there’s not a lot I can do. But this is so wrong on so many levels — can the blogosphere start kicking up some loud noise on it? Can this info go to people like Rush and Megyn Kelly et al, to get a spotlight on it? This should not be allowed to stand.
OT — OMFG I just saw the most idiotic commercial on TV. Guy sitting in a chair with a lamp on either side of him. He turns to his right and says:
“See this incandescent bulb. It uses $7 bucks a year in electricity.” He turns to his left and says:
“See this Cree LED bulb? It uses $1 a year in electricity.”
“When you argue with math, you lose. Don’t argue with math.”
Um, dude — an incandescent bulb costs about 69 cents. The LOWEST priced Cree LED bulb (40 watt equivalent) on HomeDepot.come sells for $9.99 (although they have others for $17; $24; $75 and UP). So, what were you saying about arguing with math? Because math tells me that the incandescent bulb costs $7.69 for one year; the Cree LED one costs $10.99.
Take your own advice: don’t argue with math.
Math is racist.
BTW – Simple rule: Great ideas/products sell themselves.
Voter ID is racist, homophobic, hateful and economically depressing, you…you…you…you REPUBLICAN you!
