My god, yes.

Yeah, you're in for a treat when you get there.

Good to know, because I'm a season behind as well.

Though the late Elmore Leonard professed to be in awe of what FX turned his story into, it really owes it's greatness to his style and the archetypes he creates.

The draw of Justified is in the small and large moments. Shit goes down but there's always time for hilarious or dryly droll banter. Storylines are creative but remain utterly credible, as do the characters. It's always keeping you on your toes by mixing action and suspense and humor and absurdity and wit and terror and asskicking and more, small turn by small turn.

While I wouldn't say the first season is the weakest, it is decidedly different in form from what it has become. It started trying to tell more case of the week procedurals, so the strength of each episode depended on the strength of that week's plot. Since then it has mixed in a good deal more season-long arcs, in the vein of The Wire, so you're gripped from episode to episode with the big showdowns surely to come along, and how the sides are picked and pitted.

I think that number is actually going down because there are a ton of cable cutters out there now due to the ever increasing costs of cable service.

I wasn't sure if you were joking or not. It just seems out of the realm of possibilities that someone that is on this site so much would even need to ask.

But as everyone has said, YES.

When I sense there's a show I might like but missed out on, I deliberately avoid references to it, so I don't screw myself up with any spoilers.

I finally got to watch this last night. It was interesting enough that I was willing to turn my brain off and just enjoy it. I like the supernatural aspect of it, though I'm a sucker for that kind of stuff

Makes sense. Justified has one of the best leads ever. Olyphant is perfect. And Coggins is absolutely brilliant.

Yeah, I like when shows are just off the wall sometimes. It lets me get out of my head for a little while.

The "agents of evil" that were shown in the preview for the season looked pretty cool.

A nice thing about Justified is that it isn't so much a show that you have to avoid spoilers for. Sure there are some things that it's nice to be surprised about, but the show's strength is in the performances more than plot twists.

Kind of like knowing that Michael joins the family business doesn't exactly 'spoil' The Godfather.
