I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I ended up with White Collar first and Justified right after. No bad options there, couple o' mighty fine season premieres.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I started with White Collar, found it too fraught, switched to Justified, then went, what the heck do I think I'm doing, switching to Justified for something *less* fraught, and switched back. I'll have to do Justified tomorrow.

Art Crawl!!!
Liese - so funny.
I watched Southland, then Justified and then White Collar.
Really: who decided this was a good idea?

hah! I just opted for Southland. That was enough whiplash after watching Raising Hope just prior.
Oh look, Lucy Liu is playing a sarcastic self-absorbed "badass." I'm so glad she's stretching her career in new and unprecedented directions for this show.

she wasn't much of a badass when that giant of man was wailing on her. gah! that was painful to watch.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, my White Collar love is back in full force. I don't have the same twitchy feeling I had at the beginning of last season. Everything was thick with both devotion and badassedness, and I feel it's all been set right again.
Have yet to watch Southland or Justified. I could only fit one in before work started this morning, and given the timing, I think I chose well.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Justified--that was a great start to the season. Wonderful,dryly humorous dialogue, complex, layered characters and lots of Olyphant with no shirt on. I will leave it up to you as to which of those things was most pleasing to me.

Because books.
Justified was fantastic. Watching White Collar any minute now, and sort of glad I don't watch Southland, too, because Tuesdays are crazy enough.

Always Anti-fascist!
I like all of these things, Scrappy. Why should you have to choose one?
