Trivia
Arlo Givens (Raymond J. Barry) was created for the series; Raylan's father had already died of black lung in Elmore Leonard's original story.

Goofs
Frances Givens, Raylan's mother, has her lifespan recorded on her headstone as being from 1949-2000, making her 50-51 at the time of her death.

Since it's stated that she died when Raylan was a boy and that he was born in 1970, she actually would have been alive throughout his entire childhood and into his early adulthood.

Quotes
Raylan Givens: Why can't you bail him out?
Helen Givens: Those are the first words out of your mouth?
Raylan Givens: I'm sorry, I'll start again. I see you're still smoking.

Dig it!

OK. I don't usually post reviews. I was very psyched about this series as it was advertised like crazy all over Los Angeles. It seemed like everywhere I turned there was a billboard or bus with ads for this series. I watched the opening episode and was impressed. I was looking forward to adding another solid episode to my line up. I have to admit that the subsequent episodes did not impress me as much as the first one. They were OK but they didn't draw me in. I have to admit that I missed one or two shows. I actually just happened to catch the Lord of War and Thunder. I wasn't planning to watch it. I am very happy to report that it did not disappoint. In fact, it has drawn me back into the series. I know have this show set to record on my DVR. Keep up the good work!
