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.

Verne Gay Newsday The show remains terrific; the production details, the writing, the quality just about peerless in just about every shot. Rated: B+ Aug 22, 2014 Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Magazine/Vulture Justified has tended to concentrate the bulk of its action in and near Kentucky, but this season, right out of the gate, it's sending two of its main characters to faraway states. A show this smart doesn't make a change that big just for the scenery. Rated: 3/5 Jun 17, 2014 Full Review Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter There was a feeling this season that the puppet strings were more visible than usual, characters were acting in ways they ordinarily wouldn't and the tension meant to spark Daryl vs. Raylan failed to light any fires of interest. Jun 17, 2014 Full Review Matt Webb Mitovich TV Line Say what you will about this uneven season of Justified, in the end it unarguably teed up a wonderfully savory premise for the FX drama's farewell run. Aug 26, 2014 Full Review Nick Venable CinemaBlend I'll never understand why more people aren't completely fanatical about this smart and darkly hilarious series, as it features some of the most richly drawn characters on TV, and is set in a world where everyone and everything has a distinct personality. Jun 24, 2014 Full Review James Queally Newark Star-Ledger While I'm more than happy to look forward, "Restitution" also did a nice job of tying up season 5's troublesome plotlines in entertaining fashion.

Mark K Likely the weakest season of the series, but even at its worst this show is light years above the vast majority of shows on TV. It may not shine in comparison to other seasons but it is still excellent in its own right. And it is a critical season in the arcs of the three main characters and sets the stage for the climactic final season. This season would have to be significantly worse to be anything less than 5 stars. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/24 Full Review noah g boyd is one of the best villains in TV history, middest season of the show tho Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/24 Full Review Ian M Can't get enough, great story lines, acting is spot on in most cases, great scenery, look forward to every episode. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/24/23 Full Review Matthew S Getting close to the last season of this wonderful series. And you are hooked. I know I am. Good thing is there is something coming I will tell you about in my final season review of this series. A++++ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/04/23 Full Review Rais E Justified is quality showtime with as much style as much as it has substance. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Peacemaker Brilliant. One of the best crime series that I have ever seen!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
