Dude. I just finished watching Justified. For the first 5 minutes, I was kind of bored, and almost turned off about 10 minutes in, but I finished it, and HOLY CRAP, am I hooked!
And
Perkins--I loved justified. No Hoyay, but lots of Timothy Olyphant not only giving a good performance, but being very very very pretty.
I just finished the pilot and have the second one recorded. Wow. I loved it. Wow. I know the second episode isn't as popular as the pilot but I'm going to give it a shot.
No Hoyay
I saw some great potential between Boyd and Raylan in the opening hospital scene of Riverbrook. But I might also have been extremely turned on by Boyd and his pecs.
Boyd and his pecs have chemistry?

Aw amych, we missed you! Maybe next time.
(Sorry about the getting-ass-kicked thing.)
And this is bordering on belonging in another thread, but we really all should get together again soon, regardless of TV. It's been AGES.
We're all busy, but we live so close! Elizabeth Burke would want us to get together for brunch or something. There! I made it thread-relevant again.
Coffee and Ginger-O's:
I have the first two episodes of
Justified
on my TiVo, but haven't watched them yet.
Also, an episode of
The Good Wife,
(I haven't seen that show yet), an episode of
Survivors
(BBC-America show about a virus-on the recommendation of a friend), the premiere of
Breaking Bad
(never seen before), and an episode of
Damages
(also never seen before, but have been told I MUST WATCH).
I don't think I can keep up with all these shows, on top of what I already watch. We'll see what sticks.
let me help:
dump Survivors
keep The Good Wife
I think you can also dump Damages. If you want to watch it, start with Season 1 and watch it during the summer. No rush and you can marathon it.
Jury is still out for me on Justified.
Thanks! Timesaver! I was probably going to keep
The Good Wife
once I found out that it had Josh Charles in it, because of my mad
Sports Night
love.

Good Wife is great but it has an arc, so it would be better to see the whole season in order, I think. However, it's still good no matter what.
I watched the episode of
The Good Wife,
and I see what you mean about the arc. I had a hard time getting into it. I can see that it's a good show, but it was hard to get involved with the characters this far into the season.
Sports Night
note: I noticed that Josh Charles was throwing around a baseball in his office. Does he do this in every series he's in? LIKE. If networks even do reruns in the summer anymore, I'll have to catch reruns of this. Otherwise, Netflix.
Watched two episodes of
Justified
yesterday, and I am totally on board. I wish they would stop incorporating the series title into the dialogue quite so much, but that's a minor quibble. It was v. good.
Saw the season premiere of
Breaking Bad,
and while I can tell that it's a good show, I feel the weight of a couple of seasons on unseen canon weighing on me. If I'm going to continue to watch, there's going to have to be some Netflixing first.
Saw a three-minute recap of
Damages
that my TiVo recorded for me, and, whoa. There's no way. I'm overwhelmed already. Definitely need to start with Season 1 on that one.
Haven't brought myself to watch
Survivors
yet. I'm really just waiting for the BBC to bring me S2 of
Being Human.
