Deputy Raylan Givens has his own, Wild West-style methods of upholding justice, putting him at odds with the criminals he hunts and with his bosses in the U.S. Marshals Service. And an incident prompts his reassignment to the Kentucky district where he grew up. The character is based on one created by author Elmore Leonard in several books and short stories.

Brian Lowry Variety Justified has a clear sense of its strengths and shrewdly plays to them. Aug 26, 2014 Full Review John Robinson Guardian All round, it's proved to be quite a breath of fresh air, Jun 24, 2014 Full Review James Poniewozik TIME Magazine Dark streaks aside, Justified is also a funny show, with taut dialogue and a distinct sense of place. Mar 16, 2010 Full Review Colin Biggs Vague Visages In a time where white supremacists, legalized weed and out of work coal miners are all making a comeback, Justified is more relevant than ever... Mar 25, 2024 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand [Elmore leonard's] sensibility infuses the show, from the bad decisions that humanize (and at times sabotage) Raylan to the complicated relationships that tend to perplex his life. Sep 9, 2023 Full Review Emma Clark-Dow The Post NZ This is a western-esque television series through and through, telling the story of a community based in the Appalachian mountains in eastern Kentucky.

Ashton S The first five episodes are hit or miss but they do not connect properly. After that, the season turns it up a notch and is incredible. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Audience Member A 'western' show according to Democrats. Piss! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/10/25 Full Review A S Was hooked after the pilot Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review Scott W Among my all time favorite series. Olyphant is great and Goggins is brilliant as his Shakespearean foil. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/24 Full Review Lars Winther S Lots of strong acting, interesting characters and a good setting. The series takes its time and doesn't rush things - which I like. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/15/24 Full Review Tony P One of my all time favorite shows that I'll still watch on my iPad or T.V. at home! It was absolutely great and not just season one but all six seasons which is a very rare thing to happen for a series in my humble opinion!
