Any officer involved shooting results in plenty of paperwork and some serious investigation before they may decide it was a Justified event. US Marshal Raylan Givens character is based on an intriguing and somewhat old fashioned lawman appearing in some Elmore Leonard stories. The writing is especially good as is the acting and each character in this show is someone to explored further. Timothy Olyphant (Deadwood) is a soft spoken southerner who happens to carry a Marshal's badge and has his own special style of law enforcement. Harlan Kentucky is the setting (although mostly filmed in California) and redneck style justice prevails in this back woods community. Raylan Givens must contend with relatives, ex-wife (Winona played by Natalie Zea from HBO series Hung), and crooked politicians in order to keep the streets of Harlan clean and safe. Even his own father is part of the criminal element found in this small Kentucky town. Seems like Raylan can trust no one but himself. A love interest and some multi-dimensional "bad guy" characters make this program always entertaining and intriguing.

Stephen Spielberg and Tom Hanks already had saved Private Ryan and had shown the relatively tame exploits of a brotherly band in the Pacific Theater when they bravely took-on the challenge of recreating the bitter, brutal battles that made Pacific Islands household names in the darkest hours of World War II. Most Americans can trace the broad outlines of the Allies' liberation of Europe, but few can recall the highlights of American Marines' fierce struggles over "tiny specks of earth that we have never heard of." HBO's ten-part mini-series, "The Pacific," retrieves the war against Japan from the threshold of obscurity. Based on survivors' accounts of the battles, and rendered as vividly as the small screen will allow, "The Pacific" tracks three Marines' odysseys from Guadalcanal through Cape Gloucester to Peleliu and ultimately to the epic battle for Iwo Jima. Testifying to "The Pacific's" intense realism, the mini-series collected Emmy Awards for Art Direction, visual and sound effects. More amply testifying to "The Pacific's" overwhelming genius and power, however, the Television Academy awarded it the 2010 Emmy for Outstanding Mini-Series.

Starring stand up comedian Denis Leary, Rescue Me deals with real life trauma and the life of a fire fighter in the great city of New York. In a fictional fire house we follow along with the daily activities of the FDNY finest and bravest. Often their private lives call for more bravery than the job. Tommy Gavin (Denis Leary) has a dysfunctional family and after losing a close cousin on September 11, 2001 he has problems dealing with the fact that cousin keeps showing up in his dreams or visions. Tommy deals with his alcoholism, unsettling visions, and the stress that goes with being a fire fighter each week. We ride along on the fire trucks as he and his group of firemen go about the business of putting out fires, help injured civilians, and deal with some domestic issues. The recurring guest list is impressive including Gina Gershon, Susan Sarandon, Artie Lange, Maura Tierney, Jennifer Esposito, and Michael J. Fox. As you would expect, the firemen in New York City are kept quite busy and danger is a constant possibility. Denis Leary and Peter Tolan are co-creators of Rescue Me.
