Gotta disagree, Sons has much more heart, story, legacy, and mystery. I find myself wondering what will happen next and how will they get there, after every episode. Justified doesn't really keep me thinking between episodes. If you can track down the final four episodes of season 2 of SOA, watch it. It was epic.

I like Justified, I love SOA.

Quoted for truth.

The scene where they have the rumble out in the sticks and the cops come and save Henry Rollins by arresting him was one of the more powerful scenes in recent memory, and probably my favorite moment in the series so far.

Re: Justified premieres tonight (3/16/10) on FX

Great finale last night. Great action, fantastic story-telling, tied the last episode back to the first, brough the season to a satisying close, and set up some veeeeerrry interesting plot lines for next year with Boyd Crowder and the woman from Florida, Ava and Winona, and what to do about Arlo.

I think Walton Goggins is Emmy-worthy as Boyd Crowder.

Great finale.

Raylan seems to say this every episode.
"I need an ambulance and the coroner"

Boyd Crowder is one of the most unique characters I have seen on TV recently.

Looking forward to March 2011 already.

Yeah, that was awesome. Last two episodes really picked up the pace.

Absolutely fantastic finale, Boyd Crowder is the best.

Awesome series, cannot wait until next year.

Re: Justified premieres tonight (3/16/10) on FX

We haven't commented much on Arlo, but man that guy is interesting too. Anyone notice that he pocketed the money the Marshalls gave him, instead of giving it to Bo Crowder?

Arlo gave the Crowders an envelope full of paper.

The scene with him and the guy with the grenade was good too.

Re: Justified premieres tonight (3/16/10) on FX

Boyd will probably go back to his old ways, and become the king of Harlan crime now that Bo is dead.

Oh, and Raylin's ex-wife is HOT. That scene in the second to last episode with her in the light color dress, simply stunning.

Bo wasn't moving, but that doesn't mean he's dead!

The producers don't know if Bo and Johnny are dead yet either. Depends on how the scripts go for the next season and actor availability.

Re: Justified premieres tonight (3/16/10) on FX

I kind of hope they take some of the focus away from the Crowders - except maybe for Boyd. Otherwise they are going to have to change the name of the show to Raylan vs. the Crowders.

There is the whole Miami connection too. I don't they are too happy about what transpired and I don't think they are going to just stop.

And then you've got dad Arlo and the whole Ava vs. Winona love life thing.

But yeah, I'd like to see other plot lines. They did do a good job of developing other characters and plot lines up till the last couple episodes so I'm hopeful.

And I wouldn't be surprised to see Bo and Johnny and whoever else back again. Nobody was definitively dead.

And Boyd is an intriguing character with a wildly ambiguous relationship to Raylan. It wasn't that long ago that Raylan shot him and then the show ended with Boyd calling Raylan his only friend. And there is the born-again Christian vs. meth dealer part of it.

I thought they took the easy way out involving the Dixie Mafia with the Crowders. But I thought they did it well.

I liked Arlo and I'd like to see more of him. I liked Ava too but it started getting to be too much of "The Perils of Pauline" with those two.

Boyd's great. I said upthread that I hoped it wasn't going to be like the Road Runner cartoons with Raylan and Boyd and it turned out not to be like that at all. I was pleased with the way they handled Boyd and he was great in the last episode. I know Raylan's his friend and he helped save Ava but he does have a couple murders to answer for and some other stuff.

I also said this upthread but it annoyed me the way they had Harlan be almost a suburb of Lexington. But I think you have to fanwank some things.

Just got to watch the finale. Excellent first season and quite the finale. It should be fun to see where they go with it in Season 2.
