Justified has a real western air to it. Not really a western, it's a show about a hot head US Marshal facing off against criminals in his hometown in Western Kentucky, sent back there after his hot headedness got in in trouble in Miami.
So it has a southern/redneck vibe more than ol' El Paso vibe, but the lead character has all those 'white hat wearin', fast drawin', quick thinkin', law and order' tropes with complicated drives regarding womenfolk and their protection.
EDIT TO ADD: In case you are unfamilar, that Head Shot of Olyphant above is a promo shot for him as his character in Justified.
