hell yeah!

I see about 50 kids a week with that same hair. I thought it was part of the new "too-cool-to-care-about-hygiene," gutter punk, hipster sub-movement.

I like how the writing staff this week basically used that scene to say to the audience, "lest your sympathies toward his childhood make you doubt the monster that is Quarles…"

I think that whole interaction might have been my favorite part of the episode, (besides all the Art.) It was just so awesomely, weirdly, detailed.

ugh. And here I always thought of Jeff Tweedy as a classy man.

This is just weird to me. Even out of the subset of friends I have that don't own TVs, there are a few who watch and love "Justified." Every demographic I know has a few people who watch it. Who doesn't like watching pure badassery with lots of sexiness and good writing?

I wonder if cocaine's expensive in England…

Lying or just self-brainwashed into believing that he really did "set him free."

I think the stool is bigger than those guys, and the chunks make up the stool…like a conglomerate poo of douchebag punditry.

Man, and how he want from foggily munching pills to being extremely, painfully focused on his story and the kid in front of him…that was some good shit.

It's not a "freaky cult following!" It's just a group of commenters who find him to be a very attractive and intriguing character.

Earlier this season, I was afraid I was going to end up disliking S3 relative to S2, but I can honestly say that I am happier to be in the midst of this season. Maybe it's just b/c I feel like they resolved that story arc pretty well or maybe it's b/c I just got tired of worrying about Loretta all the time, but I'm…

Wow, that tablescape is a nightmare-tablescape.

@avclub-d019eb089e65903455cc52308f00b997:disqus  Even in the non-Justified fictional world, I don't often see it portrayed as being abused "must" lead to being a sadistic criminal, but that most people who end up in the margins of society did have something go pretty wrong at some point. I'll agree that the abuse…

Only gonna address the whorehouse part: think maybe Johnny starts trying to steal a "piece"?  I can't tell whether or not we're supposed to trust that guy!

I think that might be one of the reasons they show him munching so much oxy - so that we believe that he's too fucked up to lie at that point.

I did not notice that, but it is awesome.

Yeah, probably. As in: sure, buddy - you've seen a lot of movies and love to emulate the bad guys, but this dude is actually trained to do nothing but stop weirdos like you and also he's especially talented at it.

Every time I've had that certainty about an actor (either a famous one or one I get to know really well), it turns out they're just really good actors.

I don't think the assumption is that most abuse victims become psychos; I think it's that most fucked-up, criminal types suffered from some form of abuse or neglect and that some of these criminal-types' backstories are more interesting than others.
