Loved the different renditions of You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive in each season finale

One of my favorite Darrell Scott songs...the different renditions for each season finale was an awesome touch.

Aloha from Nashville is a freaking masterpiece of music. Darrell Scott is an unbelievable songwriter, and I have loved his stuff for years. The fact they chose that song (in different renditions) for each season finale is the perfect fit.

Small side note of interest. If you are in the DFW area and listen to The Ticket 1310, one of the writers for Justified is a huge fan of The Ticket. He wrote in a ton of names from the radio guys. The ANUS in on you was from there as well. One of the Saturday morning guys actually said that and it became a running drop/joke.

Just some FYI

A Gaht Damn strong series, if I may so postulate.

The dialogue carries this show on its shoulders throughout. I started reading everything with Boyd’s style during the watch. And may have incorporated it in my speech around the house. Really got on the nerves of Mrs Singer. Hilarious.

I just might have to partake in a rewatch.

I've been thinking I need to do a rewatch as well. Is Amazon Prime the only streaming service that has the series?

if Justified would have been condensed to 4 seasons or so, it could be up there for GOAT. it had too many episodes and that detracted from it overall. season 2 is one of the best seasons of any TV show ever and they perfectly set up a long form boyd/raylan conflict, but it got bogged down too much

I just do.not understand all the hate for Seasons 5&6 .... I thought they did a good job of tying in the whole Memphis Mafia, Kentucky Redneck Mafia and Detroit Mafia with the Lexington U.S. Marshall Service, et al.

I mean they were two important seasons to grow the Wynn Duffy character, as well as his body guard (no spoilers here) and the pecking order of the Detroit mob downward.... then the Justice Department chain of command and the bad blood between Raylin and his boss and regaining the trust ..... I mean I could go on and on about those last two seasons but I thought they were really key to giving the show a proper send off.

BOYD GOAT

Season 2 was my favorite Boyd season.

felt like he was just trolling everyone then finally got down to business.

And Wynona > Ava

Ava's a solid chick. Not to say Wynona isn't, but...she isn't.

Ava's a ride or die, and Wynona's typically overly emotional, ungrateful broad who can't make up her mind about what he wants to do or where she wants to be. The kind of stuff that drives men crazy and not in the good kind of way. Let's not forget she selfishly almost ruined Raylond's career. Literally if his boss didn't give a shite about him, he'd have done time for her.
