My love of Justified is no secret. Raylan Givens is a near perfect TV hero and Boyd Crowder make an excellent foil to our hero. The actors (Olyphant and Goggins) share some of the best on-screen chemistry in all of television. The first 3 years of the FX show have given us some of the best action/drama this side of Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad.

So far we’ve seen US Deputy Marshall Raylan Givens kill a gun runner in Miami, reunite with his super hot ex-wife, execute most of the Bennett Clan, save Loretta McCready multiple times, square off with a Detroit Gangster, and repeatedly outdraw people. We have also seen him bury his aunt, put his Dad in prison, get his ass kicked by Coover Bennett, lose a bar fight he started, and once again get dumped by his super hot ex-wife. He sure is fun to watch. An old school badass on new-school TV, I love it.

Now with the 4th season ready to start, we’ll see him dealing with some new characters, including one of my favorite comedians – Patton Oswalt. Oswalt is playing Bob Sweeney:

Also joining the cast is veteran character actor Ron Eldard (Sleepers, Black Hawk Down)…

TVLine has learned exclusively that ER‘s Ron Eldard is joining the FX drama’s Season 4 cast in the recurring role of Colt, a violent, dark-humored and rule-bending sergeant with the military police.

A veteran of Desert Storm, as well as the Iraq and Afghan wars, Colt jailed Boyd (Walton Goggins) several times during Boyd’s stint in Kuwait, and they became friends.

And here are the newest trailers for the upcoming 4th season, which starts January the 8th…
