Justified--The Final Season *SPOILERS*

[auntiehill]

OK, so here we are, in the final stretch. Bad--er, deadly-- real estate dealings are afoot, Boyd is trying to blackmail people (unsuccessfully), the drug money is still gone, a major character is already dead, and Raylan is pining to go to Florida (or is he?) to be with his baby girl.

And, not to forget, we have a new character that makes Dewey look not-so-dumb by comparison.

Spoiler

Poor Dewey. I'm surprised, though, that he survived as long as he did

So, is anyone watching?

Choo Choo is the proper mix of hilarious dumbass and intimidating thug this show's secondary villains do so well. I laughed my ass off when Raylan hopped in his car and took off and he just stood there half pissed, half dumbfounded.

As much as I enjoyed his comedic turn on Raising Hope, it's good to see Garret Dillahunt back in his old wheelhouse as a villain again.

It's been kind of a slow start, but I'm looking forward to the Raylan/Boyd feud taking off in a big way, probably over something happening to Eva.

 

[auntiehill]

^I loved the scene with Boyd and Raylan in the hallway. That kind of chemistry is what makes this show so great.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

That conversation was filled with so much double-talk, it was hilarious. The way Timothy Olyphant and Walton Goggins played was pitch perfect. It's their chemistry (and Walton Goggins in general) that makes love the show so much. Well, that and Margo Martindale way back in season two.

I'm really surprised Dewey lasted as long as he did, but in odd kind of way, I had hoped he would be the last one standing.

But, why, oh, why did Sam Elliot shave off the 'Stache!?

 

[auntiehill]

^I know. It's weird seeing him without it!

 

[auntiehill]

Excellent episode this week!

Sam Elliot scaring the crap out of people, Wynn Duffy in a banana hammock (AH! MY EYES!), and Raylan generally being a bad-ass.

Poor Choo-Choo. I actually feel sorry for the big lug.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

I would watch a whole episode of Boyd and Avery verbally squaring off across a table.

Even without the 'Stache, Sam Elliot is a badass. Why, oh, why is Mary Steenburgen trying to rob him? Not going to end well for her.

 

[Dr. Funkenstein]

Sam Elliot looks like a turtle now.

 

[Locutus of Bored]

Wynn Duffy in a banana hammock (AH! MY EYES!)

Yeah, I could have gone my whole life without seeing that. He needed to cover up that flame-broiled burn unit body with something more substantial, like Sam Elliott's missing mustache, which I suspect is the true hidden treasure they're trying to get out of the bank vault.

 

[Captain Shaw]

Excellent episode this week!

Wynn Duffy in a banana hammock (AH! MY EYES!),

I think someone needs to shoot him before it happens again.

 

[auntiehill]

So, Loretta is now the pot-Queen? I love that dumbass Dickie sold his land to HER!

Best line:
Is that how you'd want to go?
If I gotta die, I want Sigourney Weaver to strangle me with her thighs.

And, seriously, it was HIS OWN CELL PHONE???!!!
That was fucked up. EEESH.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

I loved how Avery suspected Loretta of using Mags' apple pie trick. I bet it'll come back again before the show is out.

 

[auntiehill]

Constable Bob is back next episode! Woot!

 

[Australis]

Just caught up. Good stuff. Bring it on.

Mary Steenbergen looks pretty good. And Sam Elliot is not a man to cross.

 

[auntiehill]

A lot of set-up this week, but it was good to see Constable Bob back again. Funny, I don't remember him having that much of an accent before.

The first I said when they showed him: "He's got a new car!" I'm surprised Raylan didn't notice.

So, looks like next week, the body count will start to rise.

 

[auntiehill]

So, what is Jeff Fahey playing at? Do him in, just to keep him away from Ava?

Poor Choo-Choo. But it was fairly clear he wasn't making out of the season alive.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

I have no idea what Jeff Fahey is playing at; I'm just thrilled he's on the show. He's such a perfect fit that I'm surprised he wasn't on the show sooner. I really hope he and Sam Elliot share some scenes before the series is out.

 

[auntiehill]

I'm hoping at least for Fahey & Boyd to have a final confrontation. Was Sam Elliot the real snitch? I have a feeling that Wynn knows more than he's letting on.

 

[Captain Shaw]

Being from the UK I have no idea who Sam Elliot is, but I could watch a ep with him,Walton Goggins and Timothy Olyphant just talking for the whole show.

 

[auntiehill]

Damn, those were some tense scenes between Ava and Boyd. I'm glad it didn't end like I thought it would!
