I loved the Justified finale. Mang, that was some deep, deep stuff right there.

I'm a little sad to see Beau go because that means some new major menace is required for next season and I preferred the devil we knew.

I love everything y'all loved...the lines were awesome...and that final look between Raylan and Boyd...priceless. "I'm gonna bet my life on you being the only friend I have left in this world." Whew! That's well, you know.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I'm not really sure how to read that little mock shooting Rayland did at the end there. Which is good - I liked that it was an ambiguous moment.

I saw it at Raylan being bemused by the absurdity of life. He didn't have to let Boyd go, but he always knew he would.

Kind of like, "Daddy...I think I've always known."

The finale was a crucible moment for Raylan. Winona, Beau, Johnny, so many relationships coming to fruition. Karmic debt? Paid! Now what?

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Johnny's was a gut shot. So I am guessing he stood a good chance of recovering if someone found him in time?

I still find myself disliking Winona. Maybe it's the whole lack of loyalty thing. (The guy I cheated on you with is now staying away from the house, so you can come over and I'll cheat on him...wtf)

Anyway, I am going to have to get over it because I think show is picking her for Raylan's One True Love. When they were trying to talk at the elevator, there was some more of that communicating without words that this show does so well.

eta: I kinda wish that we had at least met Boman once. I'd like to have a mental image of him. Someone that Ava would have been attracted to, but still a bad man who evidently beat her.

I kept thinking, "Johnny's got a cellphone, right?" and imagining a whole bunch of stuff going on in town while Raylan and Boyd were in the woods. Including Johnny getting to the hospital. Maybe he'll hang on with none of those pesky doubts about where his loyalty lies...maybe he'll try to take over...maybe he'll go septic and have a deathbed moment with Raylan. In any case, I'm putting money on seeing him again.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've gotta watch this again.

Dag, seriously. I rewatched last week's before this week's and it was well worth it. I don't pay enough attention for this show.

Funny that Boyd was supposed to die in the pilot...

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I have loved Boyd since episode 1 and I literally whooped out loud when the two of them were driving up to face down Bo. BUDDY COP MOVIE!

Also, when Raylan killed Heckle and Jeckyl we realized that it had been WEEKS since Raylan killed someone! He made up for that shit in this episode, though, to be sure.

The haphazardly hung and slaughtered flock was an amazingly powerful and horrific image. That was just incredibly... evil.

I always believed Boyd's conversion, I think because Raylan doubted and disparaged it. Oh my god, Boyd is totally my woobie. I think he was totally expecting Bo's goons to kill him, which is why he sought Ava's forgiveness right after blowing up the truck.

Oh, ARLO. He completely lived up (or down, I guess) to Raylan's expectations. Heatbreaking. Wrong about Boyd, right about Arlo. I'm sure he would have preferred it the other way around.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this show. I will miss it, but at least I have Leverage to look forward to!

I will miss it...

This is just the season finale isn't it? We have not had - news?

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Just season finale. Second season was ordered.

John Rogers just tweeted his admiration for it. We should encourage a cross over.

Eta: damn iPhone, I really did want to say tweeted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I read someone suggesting Olyphant for Batman. Now I get why.
