Justified, S01E04- Long In The Tooth (Patreon)

Good afternoon, Patrons, and welcome to the newest episode of Justified! Alan and I had to reschedule last week's recording to today in order to fit it in, so there will still be another episode later this week. Keep your eyes peeled!

In this episode I'm much happier with the plot than the last couple of episodes, although it still has the issue of a woman who's essentially useless when it comes to getting shit done. I really liked Rollie, and I love that even in the short time we get to know him, it's pretty obvious not only that he's a decent person, but that he may be pushing himself to be that way to prove to himself that he's not a monster. Psychology, amirite? What a bastard.

There's a pretty interesting thread here about racism as well, but it's sort of odd because the writers bring it up and then sort of don't really go anywhere with it. It's like they're just sneaking the subject into the script and then they either get scared off or they decide to table it to be dealt with later; meanwhile they're sort of undercutting their own point by the way they wrote these characters. It's  kind of weird and I'm interested to see if it comes up again. 

I hope that you all enjoy the episode, and I will see you later today with The Broad-Cast!
