TV Review: Fifth Season of ‘Justified’ Launches with Dark Edge
Submitted by BrianTT on January 7, 2014 - 11:38amWhat a great time to be a TV junkie. NBC’s “Community” is back in prime form with the return of Dan Harmon.

Blu-Ray Review: Fantastic First Season of ‘Justified’ Gets HD Treatment
Submitted by BrianTT on January 27, 2011 - 11:07amCHICAGO – The first season of “Justified” was one of my favorites of 2010, but quality TV seasons don’t always translate to quality home releases.

TV Review: Riveting, Spectacular ‘Justified’ With Timothy Olyphant
Submitted by BrianTT on March 16, 2010 - 11:21amCHICAGO – In the hundreds of shows that I’ve reviewed in my decade covering television, I’ve rarely been as instantly blown away as I was by the premiere of “Justified,” a riveting, perfectly paced, expertly acted piece of drama that simply must be seen. The next two episodes are a slight step down but that doesn’t change the fact that this is the best new drama of 2009-2010.
