Matt Zoller Seitz

Every conflict or showdown is emotionally or physically concrete yet at the same time metaphorical, the stuff of future legends. And the My Dinner With Andre and His Guns dialogue is so off-the-charts lyrical that you can hear the writers chuckling. Read full review

Justified remains as good as ever--and as tautly written, acted and directed, and deeply, completely pleasurable as the fifth season, and the one before that and... all of the other seasons, too, now that I think of it. Read full review

The first few episodes of the final season of Justified are about as pleasurable as TV gets. Read full review

Raylan's endgame, targeting childhood buddy-turned-criminal nemesis Boyd Crowder with the reluctant help of Boyd's jailbird fiancee, Ava is especially taut and entertaining. [19 Jan-1 Feb 2015, p.14]

Although the program isn’t as showy or heralded as the network’s other dramas, its sixth-season start reinforces a sense that Justified will be sorely missed when it rides into the sunset. Read full review

The storytelling immediately recharges the Raylan vs. Boyd conflict. Read full review

Willa Paskin

Jan 20, 2015

The confrontation between Raylan and Boyd, in the works since the series began, imbues the series with some of the urgency it has lacked in recent seasons while it wasted time in the backwaters of Florida and in Detroit high-rises. And yet as rejuvenated as Justified feels, it can still be uncomfortably enamored with Raylan’s bad behavior. Read full review

A worthy final episode. I'd grown very fond of this cast of characters. Not a false step in the entire six seasons of pure gold. No spoilers but there was a very satisfying acquisition of a new hat. I'll miss it!

This show has always been great, however, season 6 isn't even finished air yet and it's already my favourite season of this show so far. This show is definitely the best show on TV right now.

Season 6 was a long journey, from fascinating to boring to fascinating again. It closed up most of its loops and closed the series with just enough embellishment. It was a brilliant ending and one Elmore Leonard would've loved. This was exactly the ending the series needed.

This season focused on Boyd and Raylan?s struggle, but involved Sam Elliott playing Avery Markham and Mary Steenburgen playing Katherine Hale as new bad guys in a tug of war between multiple groups. We also had a lot of Wynn Duffy which I personally enjoyed.

The season was perhaps the best one to date. The acting still really good, and the fact that almost all the side characters popped up in this (or were put down as the case may be). It was a really good send off for the series.

The only issue I had was the last 20 minutes of the season finale. I won?t say what happened other than it moves forward a few years to give sort of an epilogue, but I think that is where it did a disservice to the series. Not everything needs to be wrapped up completely and sometimes its best to leave things where they end, takes away from the climatic end.

Pros: Acting, story and pace were all great.

Cons: Sometimes its best to not have an epilogue, just leave it where it stands after the final climax.

Made me want to watch Deadwood, maybe I will do that.… Expand

Though at times throughout the final season it feels as if the show simply holds serve on previously built audience goodwill, it proves to be worth the six year journey in the end. The final season of Justified is one final joy ride into the madness that is Harlan County, and it's darn fun.
