U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens is a modern day 19th century-style lawman enforcing his brand of justice in a way that puts a target on his back with criminals and places him at odds with his bosses in the Marshal service. That conflict results in a reassignment for Givens to the U.S. District covering the town where he grew up. He is an anachronism - a tough soft spoken gentleman who finds his quarry fascinating but never gives an inch. Dig under his placid skin and youll find an angry man who grew up hard in rural Kentucky with an outlaw father who knows a lot more about who he doesnt want to be than who he really is.
Review
Both my husband and I really enjoyed "Justified" we just happened on it by chance.The characters are really good and the underlying humour is fantastic. It reminds us of old Clint Eastwood cowboy movies Good man sorting out the baddies but not a saint. Loved the transporting of the prisoner in the 2nd episode! Not so keen on his hangdog relationship with ex wife but as that is only a tiny part so far can get over it. We like his colleagues the laid back way they go about their jobs ȭo you want me to wing him or kill him" This is how TV shows should be entertaining this one is marked on the Calendar so as not to miss it. I have not come across Timothy Olyphant before and if this is typical of his talent I will look out for him.
