These shows all feature strong narratives and often (but not always) traditional subject matter and themes; excellent writing and acting; main characters who are both admirable and flawed in varying degrees; and with solid supporting characters in family, work relationships, as adversaries, and as friends.
Moreover, these shows take place in and keep true to a well-imagined world that puts characters in situations that are different to but still recognizable in ordinary experience. Notably, all of these shows had show creators with large degrees of creative control. And conservative ideas and themes sometimes pop out.
Justified was really good. Loved that bad guy who looked like a young Jack Nicholson.
Tried to explain to wife that Hollywood likes return/re-establish doppelganger. She changed her thinking when I said who does” Decaprio” remind you of?
Watch an old movie. You will find him.
