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.

Margo Martindale as Mags Bennett, in the second season, is an explosion and a whisper, a matriarch who would go so far as to injure her son to protect the family name. Go to Full Review Matt Zoller Seitz New York Magazine/Vulture 08/25/2014
In season two, Justified really found its footing, especially as it moved away from a strict hero story for Timothy Olyphant's Raylan and toward a more ensemble vibe, and introduced one of the best villainesses in recent memory. Go to Full Review James Donaghy Guardian 06/24/2014
If you believe in great American character acting then this is a show you shouldn't miss as no one is currently doing it better. Go to Full Review Colin Biggs Vague Visages 03/25/2024
Besides the never-dull cat and mouse game between Marshal Raylan Givens and Boyd Crowder, there's much to recognize. Go to Full Review Emma Clark-Dow The Post NZ 05/04/2023
Justified is crime-heavy, with a sprinkling of cowboy, and perfect for those who don't mind a modern take on a western. Go to Full Review Joshua Rivera Polygon 02/23/2021
It's got all the intrigue of a good crime story, but with the added nasty, venomous bite of it all unfolding in a town where everyone knows your name, and your daddy's too. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

RONALD J @Ron9225 Jul 27 This whole series (all 6 seasons) is a masterpiece and I don’t give such high praise lightly! It has everything you could possibly want - action, drama, comedy, suspense, romance, surprises - all done superbly! Timothy Olyphant as Raylan Givens may be my favorite film character of all time! See more Dominic B Jun 6 The first few episodes were very good, although a bit episodic. From then on, it went stellar and I couldn't stop watching and marveling at the great cast (I'm a big Margo Martindale fan since The Americans) and the fantastic storyline. See more A S 09/29/2024 Raylan is one good actor , this show already a classic See more Mark K 08/02/2024 The best season of the best show ever to grace our television screens.
