I have not. Is it required to watch the show?

Not really but it wouldn't be a bad idea. The show centers on different characters. The movie is really great and it establishes the tone and the world. But you don't need to see it first. At least, I don't think so after the first few episodes.

We’re only 4 episodes in and he’s fantastic. He’s the perfect actor for this role.

I think you’d like it, Joe.

This is the first time I've heard someone say this about Justified.
the premiere set the bar so high, but immediately it became more serialized and didn't focus on what was built in the first episode...i definitely want to start it again because i love olyphant and goggins

Wife never watched My So Called to Life when it was on originally. Just watched the first two episodes with her and she's just as hooked and impressed as I knew she'd be. :heartbeat:
