Another television season over. You know what that means! It’s Emmy season!
Networks and studios have been sending those For Your Consideration DVDs and swag to Emmy voters hoping to get a shot at the gold in August.

I would like to mention the very gifted and gorgeous (not a qualification but he is) Timothy Olyphant of Justified. Just one hour of this show and you will join the millions of true fans of the show and of the man who inhabits the character of Raylan Givens
I haven’t been able to watch as much of the show as I want, but I do enjoy the series and his performance 🙂
