With the end of Deadwood in 2006, it took a few years for Timothy Olyphant (who was a recurring character in the series) to find another drama to appear in regularly, this time as the main man in yet another Western, Justified. 

It follows the story of US Marshal Raylan Givens (Olyphant), a lawman like something straight out of the Old West, who after shooting a mob boss is relocated to his Kentucky, and the areas under his jurisdiction include the childhood home he thought he'd escaped. 

Olyphant's performance has been particularly praised, along with the writing of the show, and five of the six seasons are available on Amazon.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
