mondayschild, I hope that after all the renovations are complete it is everything you wanted and hoped it to be. Because I have a horseshoe ring. It is small and girly of course but it is a subtle reminder of Raylan. Actually truth be told I bought because Gina Gershon a favorite actress of mine was wearing one in a film and I so wanted to get it. But I love the Justified connection.

You know your obsessed with Justified when:
1) You've watched Seasons 1 and 2, for the first time, in the last month AND re-watched them all for a 2nd time.
2) You've joined the FX site and this one, and watched everything on youtube you can find.
3) Your slightly, remaining Tennessean accent now sound more like a Kentucky accent (and you've never even been to Kentucky).
4) You can't wait for Season 3.

Good to see the converts are still coming over to the light. Glad to have you here Dolphin. Welcome. Pretty much everybody sort of got immersed quickly like you...like a baptism. Once character Raylan Givens catches you eye and gets under you skin you're a goner. And the fact that it's Timothy Olyphant that puts on the Raylan suit for work everyday...well that's something to savor.

Thank you, Motorcitymade. Yes ... I feel like I'm cheating on my main man, Kyle Chandler. But I'm really not. Let me explain: I'm a mod over at one of Kyle's fan sites and love him to pieces. We Kyle fans find ourselves undergoing MAJOR withdrawal after the media blitz of the all too soon final season of FNLs, Super 8, and the Emmy. Now, it's crickets in the media for Kyle. He's doing some supporting movie roles in 2 big movies (Argo and Broken City), but we have to wait at least a year to see him up on the big screen again. We're *hoping* that he doesn't get blown up in these as getting blown up is jokingly his specialty. We don't blame him one bit for taking his time and are very happy he has this opportunity to be choosey about his next big projects, but the withdrawal has been something awful! So, if you can't be with the one you love (Kyle) ... TO/Raylan is mighty fine and caught my eye ... like "BOING." I know what it's like to be in love with a brilliant, underdog show (with an actor in a 'once in a lifetime,' made especially for his strengths role) that the critics love, yet the ratings are tough to come by. And thus, the awards are tough to come by, too, but are but not impossible to attain. Makes them all the sweeter. And when the talented, gifted actor also happens to be really easy on the eyes ... well, that just makes him all the more easy to love!!! I fall in love with a show about once a decade. And I know a great show when I see it. (My past loves have been genre defining shows: the original Star Trek, MASH, The X Files, FNLs ... and I'm now adding Justified to my list. I'm already hooked and Jones'n for Season 3.) Just as Kyle's Coach Taylor was FNLs, TO's Raylan is Justified. I look forward to cheering Justified and TO on during this next award season, just as I did Kyle and FNLs. TO is so Emmy worthy!!! And looking at, admiring, and enjoying all that is TO. P.S. I love all the fans here. TO is lucky to fans like all of you!!!

Dolphin, I know what you mean. We just get entranced by our favorites and can't get enough. I'm a little older, but my past favorites include St.Elsewhere, LA law, Hill Street Blues, etc. from the 80's. Right now, I am entranced by The Good Wife, Parenthood, American Horror Story, and of course, my fave, Justified. I can't wait for season 3. FNL was one of my favorites, too. I remember when Kyle Chandler had a short arc on --what the he.ll is the name of that hospital show? He got blown up when the doctors were trying to defuse a bomb that was implanted in a patient. I thought he was so adorable. When FNL came on with him as coach Taylor, I was hooked. Never missed an episode, and really miss that show.
Justified is so different from anything else on TV. And so is Raylan. How can you not love him? I wish this show could go on forever.

That was Grey's Anatomy, and one of the best episodes of that show ever. KC was fantastic in that small role.
I loved St. Elsewhere, watched it faithfully when I was in high school and college. I watched M*A*S*H and ER and Buffy....my first huge obsession with an underdog show that got little (make that NONE) of the attention it deserved from the PTB. I loved LOST, well, the first couple of seasons anyway, but stuck with it to the end. Adored FNL and watched every episode. There are other shows I watch now, Bones, Person of Interest, The Closer, Leverage; but none I love the way I love Justified. Best show on television.

Awww, The Closer, one of my faves too.
Don't tell Brenda but I'm in love with Fritz!
BTW, welcome Dolphin. I'd assumed you'd always been here, I guess since always seeing you at FX, until I saw all the old posts popping up. Have fun here!

I'd assumed you'd always been here, I guess since always seeing you at FX, until I saw all the old posts popping up. Have fun here! Thank you, Clovergirl. Nope ... I'm fairly new on the Justified, TO scene. When Kyle was nominated for the Emmy in 2011 (and 2010), I always checked out his 'Lead Actor, Drama' competition. That's how I came across Justified and TO for the first time, for his "Reckless" submission. "BOING" His star power, acting talent, and obvious good looks hit me right between the eyes. LOL But I still maintain I am not cheating on Kyle! BTW, it was announced today that Kyle was first time ever nominated for a deserved 2012 SAG award. (Dancing!!!) Unfortunately, TO was not nominated, but surprisingly ... neither was Jon Hamm for 'The Suitcase.' With Kyle now out of the way for FNLs, TO can just slide on into Kyle's slot next year and take the SAG award home. Oh, and TO can bring the 2012 Emmy home, too! I have it all figured out. Yes, that was Kyle being blown up into pink mist as the Bomb Squad Guy, Dylan Young, on a memorable Grey's Anatomy Super Bowl 2-parter. (LOL I recall it aired the same night as the Superbowl Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction.) That GA role resulted in Kyle's first time ever Emmy nomination as a Guest Actor in a Drama.
