Did I not say the extra 15 minutes would be for commercials?

I dont like his daughters voice.

Which, apologies to Tim if he's reading this, since its his actual daughter

Did no one tell her to speak the fuck up?

Did no one tell her to speak the fuck up?

I would rather she didnt

 

[Mook]

So no one has anything to say about the first EP?

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

I enjoyed them both. The dialogue is picking up. I can see why they aired them later. The language in the second episode gets kind of colorful.

 

[wombat]

Watched both, enjoyed both, want more but now I have to wait week by week, fuckers.

 

[Mook]

I dont know what there was to enjoy about the first ep....the dialog was so cringe and half the shit didnt even make sense. The lawyer goes to the bar and mentions raylan...for...some reason? The detroit cops were so bad.

But maybe things pick up in ep2. Every single review cant be wrong.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

“This is how we do it in Detroit” (cringe)

I liked when they were about to use the door knocker, and Raylan just turns the knob.

 

[Mook]

Ep 2 done. This is not good.

 

[VenomousDSG]

Well thats not good to hear. Still need to watch the first episode tonight.

 

[Mook]

Take in mind thats only my opinion. But just having powered through all 6 seasons of the original, this is trash. Awful writing, flat acting...and just no wit or charm.

 

[VenomousDSG]

Both episodes have a 9 of 10 on IMDB right now, little early, but it wouldnt surprise me with how shitty the entertainment industry is now.

 

[Mook]

I honestly would give both a 5 at most. The writing is so terrible.

 

[Angela@KRWINS]

Big fan of the first episode. Looking forward to this series.

 

[IDAFC21]

Watched both last night. I enjoyed them. Obviously they're not on level w/ the OG show, but part of what made that show great wasnt just Raylan, but all the other characters he got to bounce off of. We certainly don't have that here yet in the first 2 episodes, but I'm hopeful.

 

[VenomousDSG]

Well first episode down... Gonna have to agree with Mook on this one, the writing is horrible, crap CGI scenes, acting is cheesy, and music they play throughout the show is terrible.

Certainly not the original Justified.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

 

[Mook]

Nope

 

[IDAFC21]

 

[IDAFC21]

ep 3 watched. Yeah this definitely aint the OG show.

 

[Mook]

Sounds like I'm in no rush to watch.

 

[Mook]

This is so bad, even if it wasnt Justified

Borderline unwatchable for me.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

The house from the tornado story. Isn’t that the same one used in the (latest) Superman movies as the Kent’s Farm?

 

[IDAFC21]

ep 4 watched. This is the first ep I actually kinda liked. It felt like more like classic Raylan/Justified if you pay attention. I also don't think it's any coincidence that the level of the this episode improved w/ the absence of Raylans daughter.........just sayin.

And while they did get someone w/ the name of Boyd to play the main antagonist in this series, he still just doesn't have the same charisma and depth of Boyd Crowder. And while I do think Boyd Holbrook is doing his absolute best w/ this character, he's still just not written very well. So far.

But some of my faith is slightly restored now
