I purchased all 6 seasons of Justified a few years back and still go back and watch from time to time. Any other shows like this you would recommend (especially if on Netflix or Prime)?

Have you watched Longmire? (music board thread just reminded me of it). Probably not quite the same caliber, but it's kind of noir detective work in a modern Western/rural setting.

Deadwood is a good choice. Get Shorty is also based on an Elmore Leonard story. The Shield has Walton Goggins as a dirty LA cop.

I’m working my way through Longmire. It’s similar, maybe not quite as good though.

But who can top Boyd GOAT Crowder?

Yellowstone is good too, just not a detective series.

Godless is a 7 part miniseries on Netflix that is really good

No one. I'm in the middle of another rewatch and I forget how great he is. Truly one of the best TV characters ever.

Justified is too unique to be able to recommend another show like it.


Bosch is an incredible show. I love Justified, and Bosch has been a hell of a ride for me. They are different, sure, but Bosch is unique in its own right. Give it a shot.

Wife & I are on our first run through of Justified after reading about it numerous times on this board. We ripped through the first 3 seasons like it was nothing. Couldn't wait to start the next episode, oops didn't turn it off in time and the opening already started guess we're invested

Season 4 took a little while because of our schedules. We are almost through the Rappaport shitshow, but can't muster the desire to watch it. I've already told her it gets a lot better, but we just can't manage to have the enthusiasm Going to just power through the last 3 so we can move on from Rap


Back to OP, would the Americans qualify as the opposite side of Justified. Great show with a great story and great characters, but now you're working from the "bad guy" angle alluding your detectives/agents?

Banshee is filled with flawed but fascinating characters

Well, this may not seem obvious, but I'd recommend Bosch on Amazon. Titus Welliver is the lead and kills it in the role in the same way Timothy Olyphant does. LA cop and not a Marshall but includes a great ensemble cast. I believe there is still going to be one more season left that's not yet filmed.

Thanks everyone. I subscribed to the HBO channel to try Deadwood.

I’ve seen Bosche, longmire, tin star, the Night Manager, and a few others that were recommended.

Hell on wheels is pretty good outside of Common

Main character is a badass like Raylon

For free on Amazon Prime, I'd go with Psych. Doing a rewatch now with my daughters and they love it.
