2. "Long in the Tooth," Justified
Don't forget about Justified. FX's late-spring series, which aired its first season from March to June of this year, was a wonderful modern Western that struck a nice balance between serialized story lines and crook-of-the-week pieces that made Marshal Raylan Givens feel like a pulp hero from another era. "Long in the Tooth" featured great guest casting with Alan Ruck and a story that probed the complex moral code the show would continue to explore all season. (I.e., Good men can do bad things for noble reasons.) Timothy Olyphant is so cool it should be illegal. If you missed it the first time around, check this show out. The new season debuts next year.
