OK...now the really hard part. Here are our top 3 choices from each season. Pick your top 5 all time episodes. Yes, only 5. This should be interesting.
'Show me a hero and I'll write you a tragedy." F. Scott Fitzgerald
These polls so remind me of the good days and our "who said that" game! We had well over a thousand posts....
I am stupidly hooked on the Clippers because there is always the chance of an appearance like the 7th game Spurs vs Clippers...when they won, Chris Paul hugged billy crystal. ESPN tends to show stars in the crowd and Sunday the game is on ESPN!!!!!
I am surprised where the Reckoning landed! He was brilliant but we each have those moments that get to us...the Hunt with the baby just warms me body and soul!!! It was not critics fav but it was one of mine!Hatless will always rate...that scene where she rests her head on his chest...such a sweet tender scene! Could talk Justified forever!!!!
It is almost silent here and each day I come hoping someone leaves a post. Missing all. Have been watching season six and still discovering nuances in their performance's. I am now certain that Raylan does take the gun shaped clock as he leaves the office that final time. And the book...of course it goes to Tim! He escapes his war memories in books of fantasy and Raylan knows that...so he gives the hardboiled detective book to Tim! Double the treat for us. Figure the obsessed that come here will be present after June 2nd and the season six DVD! Lots to share.

I guess folks have been busy in the last couple weeks...I keep looking for more "posts" too. I agree, he took the clock when he left the office, you can barely see it in his hands.
I have watched "the promise" many time too...moves me every time. The last scene of Raylan and Boyd could not have been improved in any way, IMO.

It's cool to see the series finale leading in the poll. How often does that happen, given that finales are frequently divisive, controversial or disappointing?
Matt Roush gave a nice shout out to Justified in a TV Guide article focusing on the Grey’s Anatomy finale.
“Exit Strategies – Knowing when to call it quits after a long run can be tricky”
Contrast the Grey’s situation with that of FX’s Justified, the cool contemporary Western that a year ago started to feel like it was losing focus. Roaring back for a sixth and final season, colorfully grounded on the Kentucky home turf of its appealing hero, U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant), the drama built to a grandly suspenseful, entertaining, and satisfying finish. Significantly, it managed to keep alive the majority of its most memorable characters, whether white or black hat. Going out on its own terms, Justified even left us wanting more.
#1 The Promise And an overall tie for second: Hatless, Reckoning, Decoy, and The Hunt
I have to point out, that despite her being a divisive character, Winona is in 4/5.
Thanks for organizing this...surprising that the finale gets the most...sometimes finales can be so disappointing but not this one. ANd as a big Winona fan, that is interesting that she is in 4 of 5 top favorites.
You're so good at this...maybe there should be another "game" what"s your favorite scene between specific characters? or Favorite exchange? or favorite arc? or favorite line? Expression? encounter? Something to keep us busy in the Justified world, waiting for the DVD and the extras and the next gig for any of our favorites?
I'm also watching for more fan fiction...do you have the time for that these days?

Because in spite of the indecision of Winona the love she and Raylan shared was electric!!!
Rolling stone rated finales and we are on the top of the best! And gold derby experts finally are including Justified and timothy in their lists. We shall see.
Agree The Promise was spectacular and is the true number one...did love that The Hunt rated high...Raylan as a dad is so wonderful. I watch it way too much...but that baby just warms my heart.

I would be happy to set up another poll, maybe people could PM me fav quotes and I could put one together. We could do Boyd quotes, Raylan quotes, and quotes from others.
What say you all?
And I am working on a post-finale story....we'll see
