I think that's what I love about Justified too. I'm really invested in them all as people. I could care less about all of the couples (though I really did like Ava and Raylan together mostly because AVA *__*). But all the characters and their interactions with EVERYONE are so interesting.

I really want to learn more about Rachel. The small glimpse into her past was really interesting and the episode when she asks Raylan to accompany her into Harlan county to ask questions. IDK. I really like her and wouldn't mind learning more. I also really love Art, especially his sort of father/son relationship with Raylan where you can see that he genuinely likes and respects Raylan and thinks he's a good man who is good at his job even though he's a total pain in the ass.

And Boyd and Raylan are fascinating. I love the complications of childhood relationships where you have all these messy residual feelings from a time that was drastically less complicated than adult life is. And then you throw in their very different paths while technically being very similar men with similar backgrounds and moral codes and ACK. It makes for some really delicious relationship drama.

On a completely random note, are you familiar with Shameless on Showtime? It's in its first season and if you like character driven shows with all that messy imperfection I highly recommend you checking it out. It's my favorite new show this season and I am obsessed with it!

You are the second person to talk about Shameless to me, so now I'm definitely going to have to check it out.

Everything you said about Justified is everything I feel about it. Definitely want more of Rachel and Tim too.
