I truly believed Boyd Crowder is one of the best written and acted villains in TV history, Walton Goggins did a downright phenomenal job.

[@Iansco1]

I was pissed they were not bringing Walton back at all in the continuation.

@@Iansco1They wrapped this story up so perfectly that it would be a shame to undo the ending to their story. Part of me hates that we won’t see them interact like this anymore, but this was such a great scene that I’m okay with it. In the end, the bond that they formed digging coal together is still there.

What a scene. The "we dug coal together" line had been used a few times in the series, but this is when the full meaning hit home for me. This scene validated everything that came before. Perfect.

[@charlescollier7217]

Absolutely. It closed the loop and confirmed the thing that we all felt from the very first occasions that both Raylan and Boyd said it. "We dug coal together," is as close to "You're my brother for life," as they can muster. What a scene, and what a show!

[@jameswalker4225]

Hearing that line here in the last episode, with Olyphant’s delivery of it, and knowing it’s the last time you’ll hear it, really does cinch the heartstrings tight AF.

[@slewone4905]

@@charlescollier7217 Raylan never hold to it. Boyd did. It's even worse, because Boyd saved Raylans life in the mine, as well as after.

[@charlescollier7217]

"That the only reason? After all these long years, Raylan Givens, that's the only reason?" With Ava's death, Boyd is faced with the reality that Raylan is all the family he has left in the world. And as he has done repeatedly throughout the series, he asks Raylan for validation - some indication that he matters to him. Raylan struggles with emotional expression in general, but his obvious brotherhood with Boyd is something he can't consciously accept or openly admit. How can he love as a brother, a man who so reminds him of Arlo? This show was Blue Grass Shakespeare, and I don't think anything else will ever come close.

[@jacobscott9732]

Elmore Leonard is phenomenal

[@catsmeow374]

It really was. So much credit goes to the writers and actors for this outstanding series. I read Fire in The Hole, the short story on which the show was based. Excellent, but it was very short and just the jumping off point for all that was to come. I must say, even in that short format the depth and complexity if the relationship between Raylan and Boyd was all there. It ended with the exact words "we dug coal together", but from Raylan, not Boyd. Definitely recommended if you haven't read it already.

I don’t live in Eastern Kentucky, but as a lifelong resident from a multigenerational family in Kentucky I know the importance of coal to our state. And I know about the years of backbreaking labor and hard times of coal miners, and years of economic hardships of coal mining towns. I was thrilled that JUSTIFIED was set in Harlan, and (besides drug trade) mining was prominent in the story’s history. When Raylan and Boyd sat across from each other I knew in my heart that their joint past was going to be part of whatever they said. When Boyd said it I was in tears. Walton Goggins was so amazing in his portrayal of Boyd. “We dug coal together.” “That’s right.” Perfect ending to it all.

[@Nas_Khan]

Well I suppose if I allow myself to be sentimental despite all that has occurred, there is one thing I wander back to ‘WE DUG COAL TOGETHER……THAT’S RIGHT’. What a brilliantly written show 🔥 I love how Boyd always calls Raylan by his full name ‘Raylan Givens’. I can watch these two chat for hours 😊

[@jeffanon1772]

Deep down inside, Raylan loved them both...they were the only people who'd ever truly understood him...more than friends or enemies..more like family... And so in an act of love for them, he gave freedom to Ava & her son and closure to Boyd... allowing them each to move forward emotionally in their own way..

[@mmclaurin8035]

[@jll182msstate]

I needed to see this comment. I always thought the lie he told Boyd tarnished the "we dug coal together." But it was to free him and Ava. Wow. It was an act of love.

[@slewone4905]

Family yes. Boyd took care of Raylan's father, when his mind was going. Raylan hates Boyd, because Boyd was the same as Raylan, if Raylan's aunt didn't give her life savings to send him to college. But he told Boyd Ava died, because if Boyd ever gets out, he would not stop chasing her.

[@alexbaum2204]

Goddamn. You just put it all together with that one. Beautifully written, man! Perfectly beautiful understanding and encapsulation of a perfectly beautiful scene.

[@DanC-go9lc]

I just hope that no one sees this clip, before they have seen ALL episodes that preceded this ! Very well said Jeff --- my take was nearly the same as yours, only that Boyd knew or would figure out Raylan was lying about Ava, while also realizing WHY he had told him that. To protect, if possible, both Ava and Boyd. As you said he loved and understood them both. My reasoning - both Raylan and Boyd always deep down knew each others intentions, motivations and next move.

[@rayornelas8459]

Boyd's actions in the series made me feel he was irredeemable, but Walton Goggins was so charismatic I could not help but love every minute he was on screen. One of the best characters ever on any screen.

"We dug coal together." That's about as real as it gets. We did the job no one else wanted to, and created a brotherhood through it. You took one path, and I took another. But the one thing that binds us together for life is that hard labor.

[@handymanhoney-do6881]

Such a great show. I was raised in southwest Virginia/eastern Kentucky and that part of the country is rarely depicted as accurately as in Justified. It’s easy to just roll with stereotypes-barefoot inbred hillbillies. In reality, life is complicated there. And the people are far more intelligent than expected. Similar to a Brooklyn kid who isn’t very educated, but has genius level street smarts. Also, the poetic flow of southern language, even between opponents, forces you to think through the dialogue and consider underlying motives.

[@lyricaldreamer84]

I live in Ohio, but have a lot of family in KY, and "we dug coal together" is one of the closest things a civilian will get to military brotherhood I think. Those guys face death daily, amid horrible conditions, and it bonds them. When they're a thousand feet underground, they can only depend on each other to watch their backs. That bond still holds with 70-80 year old men. I wish my friends were half as loyal.

Probably the most powerful and hard hitting final scene I’ve ever witnessed in a television series. God I loved this show followed by Sons

[@davidisaacson5806]

I've watched the last 5 minutes of this show a thousand times and it only gets better. We dug coal together. So much meaning and emotion expressed in just four short words.

One of the all time great finales, the series in general was brilliant from the first scene all the way until the last. City Primeval has a lot to live up to.

best villian / hero interaction ever. so human

[@mmclaurin8035]

The thing is, Boyd didn't believe all of that racist crap he espoused back then either. It was just a way to control others. After the first season, he never said a racist, sexist, or homophobic thing again. Not that I recall anyway.

What an amazing show! I just love it. Everything is so perfect, so well written and executed. Bravo to anyone involved.

The character arc and relationship between these two was amazing. Raylan had so many chances to end Boyd and vice versa, but no matter what the situation was they were always there for each other. Their time digging coal made them brothers and you can tell that bond stuck with them throughout the show. Both underrated characters and actors

[@shannondore]

The best frenemies ever put to film. They had a great chemistry between them. I can't wait for the new series to come out. And hopefully a Boyd cameo.

It's the suttle music in the background that gets me

[@rexagar3362]

Two of the best characters on tv at the time.

[@robwilliamson9056]

Being from Eastern Kentucky digging coal is a way of life and coal miners have very special bonds

[@wxonwxoff]

This has to be the best ending to any shows, EVER! Even to the last sentence, "We dug coal together." This has brought tears to my eyes

[@bobbyricigliano2799]

Walton Goggins is one of the best actors of his generation. The Shield, Justified, SOA, and he was great on the big screen in "Hateful Eight." Tarantino has an eye for talent and WG is no exception.

[@31lafouine]

That Walton Goggins laughter at 0:17 is so iconic

[@TheRealDeal0909]

For real, and that’s probably the best of Boyd’s “Raylan Givens” for the whole series…
