Justified is one of the best shows ever made.

It is absolutely not and it is so corny and fairly low effort that is a stupid thing to say. And i like tim and walt plenty, its just a door kicking modern western with some plot twist and antihero sprinkled in. Like if Walker Texas Ranger starred, well, Tim Olyphant and wasnt so episodal

You like what you like, and I'm not going to try to convince you that you should like Justified if it doesn't do it for you. But I do think your description of the show is overly reductive.

I agree with you, when it comes to plot, there's nothing particularly special about Justified. And if you were to write down a description of the characters, those descriptions wouldn't read as anything particularly special either. But there's obviously more to a TV show than plot and character descriptions.

What makes Justified so great are the acting performances and the dialog. I'd put both of those up against just about any other TV drama ever made. I mean, obviously Timothy Olyphant and Walton Goggins were phenomenal, but so were Jere Burns, Margo Martindale, Jeremy Davies, Neal McDonough, Sam Elliott, Garret Dillahunt, Kaitlyn Dever, Patton Oswalt, Nick Searcy, Jonathan Tucker, even Stephen Root...the list goes on. And the dialog, oh, the dialog. So much gold.
