If you're happy and you know it... shoot yourself a Crowder!

1. Conan O'Brien was in the city last night. And he had a dance-off with Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart. I know. I know. Watch it here.

2. In NINE DAYS the World Cup begins. I feel like I do not have a sufficient vocabulary to explain exactly how excited I am for this. This Nike Commercial comes close to my level of excitement. It's football, people! Real football, that is played with your feet, not the fake kind with the shoulder pads and 300 lbs behemoths. Football is graceful and beautiful and sweaty. And endurance. How can you hate on a sport where you have to have the endurance to run full out for 90 minutes? I can see some of you fading on me. I know how to speak your language though.

Presenting sarkastic's The Non-Football Fan's Guide to the World Cup or What to do When You're Just Here for the Hot Men. Read it. Embrace it. Print it out and use it for jerk off material. What? I'm just trying to be helpful.

3. Last night's Justified is officially my favorite episode... until next week. Raylan. Boyd. Winona's clothes! The Awesome that is Art. I cover you in hearts and whiskey and ammunition, Justified. (Spoilers for last night in comments!)

4. Last but not least, does anybody have the Broken Bells album, which is the new album from Danger Mouse and, uh that, dude from The Shins. Jesus. I have mentioned The Shins in my LJ I may be barred entrance from my favorite bar for the rest of my life now. And yet, it's not my fault! They cast Hotass Girlfriend of Awesome, Christina Hendricks, in their video for 'The Ghost Inside' and apparently people have seen this, but I cannot and I weep with envy and frustration. But like, not really, my tear ducts have all dried up.

Uh, that's about it really. Happy June!

1) Walton Goggins is freaking amazing.

2) I didn't dig the Raylan/Winona stuff (well, only to the degree of "Ooh! Look at these attractive people simulating sex on my television screen!"), but I thought Winona's bra was really cute.

3) Art's quip about how he doesn't care that Raylan's daddy didn't hug him made me laugh.

4) I think Ava is pretty and nuts and I continue to like her.

5) I'm sad that next week is the final episode.

6) Christina Hendricks is glorious.

7) The end.

Walton Goggins deserves like fifty awards for last night. When he was testifying I was in awe. He is fucking AMAZING. As for Raylan/Winona, I prefer that vastly to Ava/Raylan. That latter pairing is just all wrong to me. He doesn't love her, she's rocking some 20 year old crush, he claims he doesn't want to save her, but that's all it's about. The two of them are just not right together, she gets spineless and he gets stupid. Having said that, back to Winona and her AWESOME bra. I loved that scene cause there were naked Tim parts. And he smiled. And there was kissing. Yes, I am that easy.

Art and Raylan in the office were superb. Raylan and Arlo in the conference room were on FIYAH. Literally, my teeth were on edge.

In short: JUSTIFIED YAYE!!!

I watched the scene in the church three times. I'm in awe of that man.

What I love is that Raylan bitches to anyone who'll listen about how much he doesn't want to save people. But there's Winona, Ava, Arlo, and the most important one of all, Boyd.

I want Ava to stick around and be sassy, without being totally infatuated with Raylan. I know it's hard because he's RAYLAN, but still. I want her to be strong. That episode where she gets kidnapped? I loved that she fought as hard as she could in the van.

When Arlo mentioned Momma Givens? I thought Raylan was going to knock him flat on his behind.

Walton Goggins is totally trying to steal this show. And if it weren't for Nick Searcy (Art) and Timothy Olyphant (Raylan) that would totally be happening. Well, and Helen too. I love Helen. That woman is BAD. ASS. She needs to be on all the time.

I totally agree with you about Raylan bitching about how he doesn't want to save anybody, but his actions are saying a whole bunch of something else.

And, Ava, I understand the Raylan mojo; I know it must be hard, but baby, GET A SPINE!

I am still surprised that that meeting in the conference room didn't end in bloodshed.
