Then again, maybe I've just been watching too much "Justified" and "True Detective." Both series are "taking me back" to what it was like to grow up in the American South. The landscapes of back-country Louisiana and Kentucky are so *familiar* to me that part of me feels "at home" every time I see them. Even the shanty town houses are familiar. And the ways that people talk to each other, and relate...that's a real "Southern" thing, one that Michael captured well in his story. In "Justified," you really can imagine Boyd Crowder chowing down on one of his own cousins who'd betrayed him in a drug deal.
