Yeah, I watched "Justified" and always liked Olyphant. Like you, I was taken aback a bit at his demise. There was a lot of dark humor in this series - a whacko nurse, the girl literally crapping her pants over and over while in the midst of a robbery, the idiot brother with the bug eyes tripping and "bang", etc. The nurse saying, "can you kill him first so I can watch him die" was just a sample of her whacked out brain. All in all, a good watch.
