Well, y’all, the end is near: After seven bourbon-soaked seasons, the series finale of “Justified” airs tonight. I’ll post my final “Justified” Whiskey Watch, The Last Call, tomorrow, but in the meantime, here are my Top 5 Whiskey Cameos from…
(SPOILER ALERT: Do not read until you have watched Episode 10, “Trust.” Trust me.) There were a couple of shots in this episode, but let’s get to the big one first: AVA SHOT BOYD. I did NOT see that coming, you…

This week on “Justified,” we learned several things: Ava can take care of herself; Crowes flock together; and cigarettes really can kill you. RIP, Mr. Picker. Damn. That explosive scene was a good reminder of something we already know: Never…
The episode was titled “Wrong Roads,” but as far as the Whiskey Watch is concerned, “Justified” was back on the right track this week, with two sightings before the opening credits: Boyd poured shots of his go-to bourbon, Elmer T….
