Justified

Love, love Justified. Finally caught up on the first three episodes, and it's always a delightful 45 to 50 minutes. There's still the "Superman Raylan" thing going on a bit, where it doesn't seem like he can ever be hurt, although that's balanced by the chaos in his personal life, seemingly. I wonder if they're going to touch back on the smokeshow bartender and her boyfriend robbing him, or if they just let it slide.

Even if Superman Raylan does make the show formulaic at times, the supporting cast is just so god damn good, especially Boyd. I like that the show has essentially gone to a 50/50 split of Raylan's day to day stuff, and Boyd's growing pains with his criminal empire. Even people in minor roles - like the whore that Ava shot a guy in front of to save her life - end up getting meaty continuing plot lines if they're good.

 

The bartender and her husband were featured prominently in the coming attractions, so it's unlikely that their storyline will be allowed to "slide".

 

I don't watch the teaser clips usually, so I didn't see that. As far as the boyfriend thing, whoops - you're right, he's her husband.

 

I generally try to avoid the upcoming clips, but watch it on this show. Hot Bartender/hubby seems to be a prominent plot point for the coming episode(s)

 

An associate of mine suggested non-lethal force might come in handy. I figured, what the hell, I'll give it a shot.

 

Weird thing about the bartender was that she was in the background quite a bit last year - kind of hard to believe she just goes sideways when the ex shows up.

 

Love Raylan's use of the beanbag rounds. Chicken Fighter gets lit up by wifey and Raylan and still keeps coming.

 

More Deadwood crossover last night with Gerald McRaney.

Who had separately captured by Hill People as the way Raylan and Boyd would cross paths this season?

 

The Hill People have eyes!

 

Mike O'Malley has come a long way since "The Rick." I didn't see the shooting in the motor coach coming any more than Stephen Tobolowski did.

 

Same. I do keep wondering though if Drew Thompson is someone we've already met, either in this season or a previous one.

 

Based on the clues that were dropped last week my guess is we have.
