The writing for this was exceptionally poor. The spectacle didn't save it - couldn't save it.

A bowling alley? Is that what you saw there?

Mr. Wrench seems to kill only those who deserve it or who have earned it - it is Nikki who goes off-path and betrays her second chance.

It's also open-ended and not firm in the way that "No Country for Old Men" was.

I think that is entirely plausible, perhaps even likely. That's what I love about this show - the chance to interpret and discuss (at least with people of intelligence) is endless. This season, especially, has so many rabbit holes down which to travel….

Nikki murdering the trooper is truly a betrayal of that second, divine chance she was given. It turns out that Mr. Wrench is actually the one who can claim the Angel of Vengeance role.

I have not felt nearly as strongly about this season as the previous two, but this may have been the best episode in the entirety of the series' run. This was outstanding.

Jimmy definitely crossed a line tonight into nastier character and person….and the show's endgame itself is starting to heat up. There can only be a season or two left, at most, right?

Imagine what might have been, had Jimmy stayed in the commercial production business (for which he seems supremely suited) and gotten out of the criminal lawyer business.

Do people really argue that seasons 1 & 2 are "empty"? I've found a lot of depth and subtext to both of them, and have had engaging conversations with people about it.

Absolutely. Chuck's smirk and the way he flipped the tool was a clear indication that Ernesto hearing the tape was all planned.

This really has nothing to do with anything, but Agent Dom is a lesbian, right? When she talked about the proposal that drove her out the bathroom window to Whiterose, she never said it was a man that proposed…and she talked about sexy woman in her dream. I think it's indicative of how subtle things are in intelligent…

It weathered its economic decline pretty well, and has transformed itself from a steel town into a medical and robotics hub.

The air is still pretty polluted, though. But the foodie scene is truly incredible, and housing is mind-bogglingly affordable.

You might be surprised. There are plenty of kids who turn out like Troy have parents who forgive them for their every action, and they are then free and entitled to revel in their budding sociopathy.

If Jerry Smith from Rick & Morty met Ted Wheeler….

We have Nanny-Stated out the potential for kids to resolve issues themselves. Anti-bullying, on its surface, is great. But it also encourages too many kids to be mewling tattletales, when a good right hook (or kick to the groin) does plenty more. I know this from experience.

Rhaegar was already dead by the time of the Tower of Joy. Lyanna was talking about Robert Baratheon not finding out.

I'm pretty insulted that teaching is somehow seen as an ignoble profession in this show.

That was a truly great episode, and the comedy and wit of the show are what drive it. I love the humor, even of the gallows variety (like Boyd's buddy capping the hold-out last week). Justified has become a really strong show since it's hit-and-miss first season. It's "must see" for me every week.
