I found the Bennetts terribly easy to empathize with
Absolutely this. I'm warming up on this season, but season 2 was really well balanced for me, moreso than the first season, in fact.

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

Because books.
The first season was great, but it didn't have the incredible focus and intimacy that S2 had. S2 just blew me away.

I'm not as big a Boyd fan as most people, I guess. I thought Mags was just amazing as the big bad, and it gave the season both more balance and cohesion than the first one. Which was plenty impressive! But I think the second was better.

I love that Boyd always buttons the top button of he shirts, even on the prison jumpsuit!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Justified is taping for me at home, but I gave in to temptation and watched the latest episode on iTunes.
I was delighted by the shout-out to Bass Reeves, but it did seem a little contrived. I wonder if the writers didn't know about the 2010 movie, or did know but thought it was poorly done (which the comment on imdb would seem to indicate).

Art Crawl!!!
White Collar: did anyone else smile at "Rebecca Ryan" - makes you want the baddie to be Count Renlo.

I was somewhat surprised to see that Johnny had survived (on Justified). .. but at least now we know.

Is anyone but me wishing McDonough's character winds up interacting with Limehouse? They are both Boomtown alums. I miss the first season of that show. It was so good.

Le Sigh. Boomtown before they changed it to BoomMainstream. Hi, we're not canceling you just yet, we're just eliminating your entire premise.
I truly feared that NMcD and Raylan were going to have it out right then. All that first Act foreshadowing with his wrist-gun-thingy.
This season I truly love Ava and Winona. I sit back with Ava and think, yeah, she was abused, but she was also involved with a dirty man. Maybe she was a little more involved or in the know than we originally suspected. Or maybe it was not so much involved, as she was in the know, and now she's bullshitting and blustering with the best of them. Or maybe she would have been this way all along if her husband hadn't been so abusive, and treated her more as an equal.
I find it funny that Neal is such a barrel-chested bull of a man, and yet, after all these years, he's just so darned pretty.

Was Justified on last week? Because I keep trying to pull episode 3 up on Comcast On Demand and it Just.Isn't.There. It's driving me nuts.
