The Justified Season 2 DVD set holds all 13 episodes of the FX crime drama's second season, which aired from February 9 to May 4, 2011. Timothy Olyphant returns as Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, who now faces the Bennett family and its matriarch, Mags Bennett.
This is a brand-new copy of the Sony Region 1 release, so it plays in standard US and Canadian DVD players as well as Blu-ray players.
Season two moves between Lexington, home of the U.S. Marshals office, and Harlan County, Kentucky, where Raylan grew up. The Bennett clan, led by Mags Bennett, the deceptively kind matriarch played by Margo Martindale, becomes entangled with Raylan and with his criminal father, Arlo (Raymond J. Barry).
Jeremy Davies plays Dickie Bennett, Joseph Lyle Taylor plays Doyle and Brad William Henke plays Coover. Kaitlyn Dever plays Loretta McCready, and Walton Goggins was promoted to series regular as Boyd Crowder.
Notable episodes include "Cottonmouth", "Blaze of Glory", "Brother's Keeper" and "Reckoning". Nick Searcy, Jacob Pitts and Erica Tazel return as Raylan's colleagues in the Marshals office.
The season earned four acting nominations at the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards, for Timothy Olyphant, Walton Goggins, Margo Martindale and Jeremy Davies. Martindale won Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her role as Mags.
The bonus features add deleted scenes, three behind-the-scenes featurettes and outtakes. Owning this season of the Justified TV series on disc means the full Bennett storyline is ready to watch any time.

Consistently brilliant
I gave season one 5 stars, and I wish I could give season two 6, because somehow it’s even better!
Justified is one of those rare shows that just gets it all right – perfect casting, sharp, smart writing, great stories, and fascinating characters. It never feels phony or contrived, never preachy or overly heroic. The good guys aren’t always good, and the bad guys aren’t all bad, and I find myself watching it and rooting for people who have done some pretty bad things, yet are still so magnetic you can’t help but want to watch more. A lot of that is probably due to the Elmore Leonard source material, but the writers have really captured that tone and used it perfectly.
The characters are all so layered and flawed and interesting, and the actors who portray them do such an amazing job – Olyphant and Goggins in particular. Any moment of shared screen time with them is magic. And who couldn’t love Nick Searcy’s Art? All the regulars are top notch, and the guest stars, particularly the Bennetts this season, were amazing too.
Highly recommended show.

Like a 13-hour Elmore Leonard novel
I loved the first season of this show, introducing us to Raylan Givens (certified BAMF) and the world of Harlan County, Kentucky. The second season, presented here on Blu-Ray, utilizes that groundwork to tell a overarching story from the first episode to the last. Among the wonderful characters introduced in “Justified’s” second season, you’ll meet clever, tenacious and intrepid young Loretta McCready and the warm, motherly and brutally conniving Mags Bennett, matriarch of Harlan’s weed empire — a role which snagged actress Margo Martindale an Emmy.
The Blu-Ray features all thirteen episodes beautifully in 1080p high definition video and 5.1 DTS-HD sound. The second season was shot digitally using RED Epic cameras, so it should look flawless.. and does. If there’s a disappointment with the set, it’s that Sony has decided against including audio commentaries this time around. The first season had audio commentaries on four episodes.
What makes up for it is a Blu-Ray exclusive special feature: “Talking Shop: Roundtable Discussion”. It’s a twenty-five minute conversation between showrunner Graham Yost, director Michael Dinner, staff writer Fred Golan and novelist Elmore Leonard, who created the character of Raylan in his 1993 novel “Pronto” and whose short story “Fire in the Hole” provided the basis for this series. The back and forth between the participants is really informative, as each brings a different perspective to the making of this show. Leonard, looking every bit his eight-plus years, is particularly valuable. He brings both the expertise of a writer and the outsider’s perspective of an audience member, asking questions of the show makers that cut to the heart of adapting material from one medium to another. All four participants are curious people, and that makes what they have to say much more interesting that most fluff special features where the talking heads are just hitting the promotional talking points.

Amongst the Hills of Kentucky
I sort of fell into watching “Justified” and missed a lot of the early ones hence buying the series. I absolutely love the acting . The amazing cinematography . Every thought that passes your main characters faces are right there. A lot of depth in the writing but as I stated, it can be quite violent. The whole premise of coal and Kentucky and the more modern day “bandits” is strongly created here. Moonshine, “grass” and pills fuel numerous gang types who are squabbling for their piece of the action. Timothy Olyphant who plays Raylan Givens has created a character of strength and interest but I think that Walton Goggins is even more interesting while playing Boyd Crowder. Boyd is a man of many, many extremes. Violent, loving, dangerous and intense. He vacillates between good and bad with joyous abandon . Goggins acting is wonderful to watch and with this sort of filming, you get to see each thought crossing his face.
All your main characters are well fleshed out and you become interested in what trouble each one will get into next. Mags Bennet portrayed by Margo Martindale is wonderful. What a mountain matriarch ! She holds her family of screw up boys in an iron fist and a sandpaper tongue. Everything about this show is character driven and probably the reason I look forward to it each week. As much as I like ( and it seems most others do too) the gifted NCIS series, this is better all around because of the writing and especially the incredible acting.

Procedural Grows into Character Study with Regional Flavor
Justified Season One began as a police procedural centered on US Marshall Raylan Givens and his transfer in disgrace to his native Kentucky. Once there Raylan pursues friends and foes both old and new for the 21st century crimes of meth cooking and oxy dealing and the robberies and murders that go along with it.
The success of Season One allowed Season Two to expand into a character study with a strong regional flavor. All of the stereotypes of Appalachia are here, but updated for the 21st century. People live in hollers, mine coal, make moonshine and music and hold blood feuds that last for decades. The strength of Justified is that the viewer believes these tropes and wants more.
The Bennetts are a family of pot growers and organized criminals who manage the marijuana growing business in Harlan County and dabble in other crime when it overlaps with their marijuana business. Mags Bennett is the matriarch of the family and she rules all around her with an iron fist. The Bennetts and the Givenses have been feuding since the era or Prohibition and the revenuers but Mags and Raylan’s Aunt Helen have kept the feud in check these past twenty years. Loretta lives with her widowed father who is growing pot without Mags’s approval. Loretta is also pursued by a convicted paedeophile. Mags takes matters into her own hands and Raylan has to rescue Loretta from the molester. The story of this young girl and the feud between the Bennetts and the Givens fuels the entire season and it is rocket fuel.
Also present is Raylan’s old friend and foe, Boyd Crowder who is still struggling with his identity as an outlaw and his identity as a converted Christian whose conversion came to a bloody end in Season One. What Boyd chooses as his path and identity will affect everyone around him: the Bennets, Raylan, Loretta and Ava.
This season of Justified is phenomenal. Even realizing that the regional flavor is stereotyped, it is this flavor that gives the show nostalgia and drive. Without it this would be just another show about an angry cop. With it, this is something brilliant. The characterizations are well-rounded and human and even the villains are affecting and lovable. The real problems of poverty and addiction aren’t glossed over, nor are they presented “poverty porn” for the elite. Highly recommended.

Quality Writing and Wonderful Characters!
I jumped on Justified, Season 1, after I saw the first trailer. I have family in Kentucky, West Virginia and Florida, and having been there on visits, was very interested to see how the local “cultures” would be portrayed.
I was not disappointed. This show has such high quality in the writing, acting and direction it will grab you from the start. I didn’t know much about Timothy Olyphant – I remembered him in Deadwood and Hitman – but I am an over the top fan now.
But one actor does not make an entire show. Olyphant as Raylan Givins is surrounded by a laundry list of characters that are so unique and so real that the total sum raises this series above and beyond any current programming. What comes close? Mad Men (season 1, especially), Breaking Bad, Deadwood and I imagine the Sopranos, too, but I didn’t watch that one. If you like any of those offerings, you will love Justified.
I pre-ordered my Season 2 the second the last episode aired and cannot wait to have it in my hand. It is so refreshing to see stories not centered in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago or Miami, but dig into the earth of the little used parts of the country. My biggest fear is that I love the show, and usually when I like something that much it is quickly cancelled! For that reason, I am keeping my fingers crossed that the quality of Justified will keep on on air for many more seasons.
