"Justified" on FX HD - Page 68

I also have a hard time believing he would be let free. Now I can see taking the death penalty off the table (happens all of the time - e.g. Gary Ridgway, aka Green River Killer, here in Washington state), or allowing him to serve time in an easier prison versus a "supermax" style of prison.

But it does ramp up the dramatic tension.

You guys got that right!

LOL, quite a few of the outdoor scenes are actually shot in the foothills of California where I was born and raised.

As you probably know the reason for not seeking the death penalty with Ridgeway was there was still a lot of missing woman and bodies still out there and only he knew where.
If he didn't agree to help find them, he would have got death.

I understand your point.

With BB, I am not the least bit interested in seeing any of the characters interrelate with each other or anything else.
Why?
Because of the background the drama of the series is played upon.

Meth destroys, meth kills, meth sucks the soul out of the weak....and out of innocents.
The children of those who have surrendered themselves to the drug are forever scarred.
I don't find anything about BB worthy of an investment of my steadily decreasing and limited time on this planet.

As for TWD, I watched the pilot.
When the sheriff decided he had to go back into the city to unlock the murderer's handcuffs (because it wasn't "right" to leave him there) and thereby putting everyone else in real jeopardy (including his wife and kid), my Suspension of Disbelief took a terminal hit.

+1000000

In either the first or second season, there was a shot of Arlo's house with the hills in the background. I remember thinking then that there was no way in hell that was Kentucky, that it must be CA.

Thanks a lot for saying that. I almost deleted my post several times because I thought it was off topic and that it might offend you or oink. And I agree with you on your comments. When I wrote what I did I was thinking about The Amerikans, which after two episodes I'm completely hooked on. Much of the criricism of Homeland could also apply to it, but I'm intrigued by the characters so I don't care. Contrast that with The Following, which I was also looking forward to but so far have been disappointed by because I just can't believe any of the characters are real.I also know at least one person who gave up on Justified because he found the idea of a gunslinging U.S. Marshall too hard to accept. And he's right of course-there is no way someone like Raylan would ever exsit, or Tim, or Boyd or Wynn too, for that matter. But if you make the characters seem real, and do it with style, some can look past the basic fantasy of the premise.

LOL, I know what you mean.
It very easy to spot, as it is not replicated by nature anywhere in the U.S. that I am aware of.

Seems like most outdoor woodsy shots in movies/television are filmed there.
For example, Django Unchained substitutes California for the South.

You have NEVER offended me, old friend.

It's all shot in and around Santa Clarita, CA. They just don't have the budget to actually shoot in Kentucky.

Except for the pilot episode. To my knowledge, that's the last time the cast and crew were in Kentucky.

Correct for the most part, but I just about every year, during hiatus, a couple of the writing staff have gone to Kentucky, and much of what they have picked up has ended up in the show.

And BTW, the pilot was shot in Pennsylvania; the only thing ever filmed in Kentucky is the establishing shot during the opening credits.

The stuff they pick up can be funny to a local. For instance, Masterson Station is just a park and housing development in Lexington - but they like the sound of it I guess, so they "go on down" to MS like it's somewhere else

Looking forward to tonight. Although, I think I have a cold (or horrible allergies) so my mood isn't the best. Wish I wasn't sick
I did my run, but thinking about laying off the muscle (ab) work. Need to let my body rest. Exercise addition.

I can encourage to take up my addiction....it's more fun.

haha

I did not see that happening
The ending was sweet for a change. Ha

Felt bad for Max, the guy who got beat up due to the hooker lying. Colton beat him up good
Colton is addicted to heroin!

The dirty lawyer was a surprise too. Did not expect that to happen.

Art gets....30-40 seconds of screen time---and I found that a perfect amount to keep me wanting to see/hear his interactions with Raylan.

Fantastic.

And Tim's appearance at the clinic....I guess that was shown to shed light on the level of heroin problem that Colton has? Or is Tim going to get himself into potential hot water/trouble (kind of like Raylan) with his extra-curricular activities?

The dialogue on this show is still fantastic. Still feel it's Deadwood-ian IMHO.

Educational episode. Now I know how to cauterize a wound when removing a body part.

Neither did I.

Without a doubt, an important skill to have....

What did Art say about Tim in the first episode of the season? Something like,"its not a question of if he will explode, just when". I've got a bad feeling...

Like Art said, it is inevitable.

What cop did Raylan put in prison? I'm drawing a blank, although I'm sure I'll slap myself once I'm reminded who it is...

I had to look it up - I don't even remember the first season

http://justified.wikia.com/wiki/Hunter_Mosley

I also have totally forgotten the 1st season. I never would have made the connection without that link. Thanks.

Art is terrific. When Raylan called Art and told Art that he was on Josiah's trail and Art said, "The game's afoot ,"I howled. I guess the writers loved it too because in next week's preview another character repeated it. Poor, maimed,Josiah has suddenly become the object of a lot of fun.

Thats great. thanks. Boy, this season is getting complicated.

Can't remember the 1st season either. I was checking out Netflix in hopes to see past seasons but was denied.

He was so good in Deadwood....

HUH????

I think the case can be made that MOST EVERYONE from Deadwood has been so good on this show....including Sheriff Shelby. His banter with Raylan in that episode was fantastic....and lends some meat to his backstory.

Shelby seems to be a good guy at heart who believes in the idea of justice. So I can only imagine what's going to happen when Boyd gets wind of where EM is! And you can tell that Shelby wasn't ready to spill the beans to Raylan....yet.

At the risk of offending someone's political sensibilities, I'll mention that Timothy O. is on Jay Leno tonite.

TO is a great guest. I've seen him on Conan a few times and he's a little nuts, but funny.
