Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
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.wease wrote:I have not. Is it required to watch the show?durdencommatyler wrote:Have you seen the movie?

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.

Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
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 gogginsdurdencommatyler wrote:This is the first time I've heard someone say this about Justified.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:i need to try it again...i watched five or so episodes and other than the premiere it didn’t super grab mewease wrote:We just started Justified last night.

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.
