Don't Miss the Final Season of Justified

Tomorrow night on FX is the start of the end; the sixth and last season of Justified.  The hard-scrabble, drug-running, dead-end antics of one corner of Kentucky may continue forevermore, but our small window onto this story will close in a few short weeks.  And what a view it has been!

Each season some great actors and actresses join the show (in addition to a great cast), and this season is no different with Sam Elliott, Garret Dillahunt, and Jeff Fahey.  This should be a good way to go.  For while there is enough story to keep the series fresh for this one last season, this is about it, according to Timothy Olyphant (aka Raylan):

You want to stop before you’re repeating yourself. There are only so many situations where Raylan can confront Boyd Crowder (Walton Goggins) before it feels to you and the audience that we’ve seen it before.

So will we see the final match between Raylan and Boyd, the two friends who grew up together then went their own ways finding themselves on different sides of the law?  This seems to be the case, and we will miss both of them, regardless of which one goes out (feet) first.  Given that Boyd was only supposed to last a season, he already had his nine lives, or at least five until now.  And staying alive around Raylan is not an easy task. 

Check out the final season trailer.  You can see the tension building and poor Ava caught between the two boys.  It doesn't look very comfortable.
