a modern day Gary Cooper...
This evening’s viewing will be the 2nd series of the US critically acclaimed drama “Justified”. I have only just discovered this, and am completely hooked!“Justified is the story of Deputy US Marshal Raylan Givens, a 19th-century-style true-blue hero, clad in Stetson and cowboy boots.
Tough but softly spoken, Givens enforces his own personal brand of justice that's as at conflict with American law as it is with the criminals. After shooting a gun thug in a Miami hotel and incurring the wrath of his superiors, Givens is sent - as punishment or by fate - to his Kentucky hometown, where his ex-wife is shacked up with somebody new, his former best friend is a murderous white supremacist, and nobody ever offers him some southern hospitality”…… It’s a bit like Midsommer Murders, but with crazed hillbillies around every corner and a very handsome US Marshal who can draw his gun quicker than you can say Dirty Harry. Well… us single gals need something nice to look at now and again!!

Hi...I don't know where it was filmed, but you could probably find out if you Googled it. I would recommend watching series 1 first though. It is one of those dramas that is very character-based, so you get to learn more about the individual characters as the series goes on.
