While most of Justified's fifth season was somewhat hit-or-miss, the show really got its act together towards the end of the run, and while "Restitution" tied up some loose ends it was an excellent place-setter for what should be an electric final showdown between Raylan and Boyd.

You got to give it to Justified because it can really make things interesting during the final stretch. While I didn't love everything about "Starvation," I have to admit that it successfully built off of the tension that was created last week and got me excited for next week's finale.
Everyone was gunning for Daryl Crowe, Jr. Raylan wanted to put him away for shooting Art and letting Kendall Marcoshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18292262355565435373noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947924687338313078.post-46365922571540662252014-03-25T22:31:00.000-05:002014-03-26T10:32:03.262-05:00Episode Review: JUSTIFIED, "The Toll"
It may have taken a while, but Justified finally got interesting in "The Toll," and that's probably because there were actual stakes that made all of the twists feel... well, justified.
After tangling with the Crowes all season, Raylan asked Art to protect Alison, and the grizzled chief was doing just that when an unseen assailant opened fire on them and hitting him.

While watching "Weight," you could see all of the pieces being moved for the endgame, but so far this season's wasted so much time getting to this point that it kind of fell on deaf ears which is kind of a shame.
Dewey took off with half of Boyd's dope at the end of the last episode so Crowder, the Crowes, and Raylan were all on his trail. Meanwhile, Kendal tried to escape from his kin after Marcoshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18292262355565435373noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947924687338313078.post-60955018664259633442014-03-12T00:16:00.001-05:002014-03-12T00:16:28.366-05:00Episode Review: JUSTIFIED, "Wrong Roads"
While there were some things I liked about "Wrong Roads," it ultimately felt busy and continued to keep the season from making any real progress.
Boyd was back in Kentucky and his boys had to get the heroin back to Harlan while he had to put up with Daryl's power play. On top of that, he was summoned to kill a man in order to sure up Ava's protection/drug business. Oh, and Raylan was on Boyd'sMarcoshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18292262355565435373noreply@blogger.com0
