I'm sorry, we're going to have to deduct $2000 for that incorrect question.

Guy... I had never heard about Justified before you brought it up in another thread (I think it was you) Since then, I've watched the series from the beginning and have now caught up.
While I don't think it's the greatest show ever... it is really good, and well worth watching. It's very different from most shows, and I love the "characters"... THANKS!
Keep on Civin'

Indeed, I am doing the Lord's work.
I'll grant Archer "best show on TV, comedy division" happily.

Guynemer is correct. You should all go download both shows right now.

Guynemer is always praising something with so much hyperbole... Everything's always the most amazing thing ever.

I said it is the best show on TV. I didn't say the best show "ever"; it is the best show currently airing.
The best show ever, of course, is Deadwood.

Shitsnacks? That's a first for me.

I'm a big fan of Game of Thrones, True Blood, Dexter, The Killing, but Justified is one of those different kind of shows, and is excellent. And while I'm enjoying season three, I still think season one was the best.

Put me down as a Justified fan as well. Although perhaps not as enthusiastic as guy. My wife calls it the most depressing show on TV and then goes on to make comments of that being the reason I like it.

The fact that I was "disappointed" with the end of last season (Like just about everybody) doesn't change the fact that it was a great show. The acting was great, and with the exception of how they decided to leave everybody hanging to have a second season, the writing was excellent. I really enjoyed last season, and so far, I'm enjoying the new season. Like Justified, it's a different kind of show. And I give them a lot of credit. I'll continue watching and enjoying the show.

Are you a Cubs fan?![]()

I started watching season 1 and I'm about halfway through it. The episode where the dentist on the run from the mob and the US Marshals makes a run for the border was kind of dumb; why hire a smuggler to get you across the border when you can just walk across at the official crossing without any ID checks or anything else? Also I know they're trying to make the guy look macho but he'd get fired for always going in without back up and getting into gun fights every other day. Still, the series is kind of fun to watch even if it has obvious flaws.

It gets a lot better after the first few episodes.
Do not take anything I say seriously. It's just the Internet. It's not real life.
