Because he refused to take any role that required him to kiss anyone other than his wife? That’s not going off the deep end. That’s called not ignoring your principles for money. That’s called character. And you don’t have to share his principles or agree with them, but any decent percent will respect the fact that he sticks to his.
@@changinlat Charles Bronson did the same and still had a long amazing career. It is refreshing in a bed hopping Hollywood to see somebody that has strong moral character, yet can play the baddie with the best of them.
Neal McDonough is one of the greatest villians in all of film history. You can tell an actors greatness by the level of hatred you feel for him while watching. He's just the best. And in real life he's one great family man ! Bravo Neal
Yeah, it's a shame he's an unrepentant MAGA Republican. Which is why Hollywood put him on the back burner, not the cover story about being too religious to kiss an actress that is not his wife.
he was great as far as charisma goes, but he was the second least intimating character in the show. I loved him, but he was not someone that was scary in the least.
The whole Season 3 with Robert Quarles vs. Raylan was amazing but also kudos to Jenn Lyon in Seasons 3+4 as Lindsey Salazar. Yet another in a seemingly endless stream of incredible characters on Justified. Man, do I ever miss this show. Simply the BEST ! Almost time to re-watch it, again.
The way Quarles antagonizes Raylan just enough to get a real reaction out of him means he's a terrific villain. Season 3 and 4 are my absolute favorites. I wouldn't categorize Lindsey or the middling actress that plays her as anything close to one of the incredible characters on Justified. The only weak spot in all of Season 4 was the episode with her and dummy husband. She was an awful character and her voice was nails on chalkboard.
Just…Wynn Duffy spent this whole season having to deal with Quarrels. I don’t know how this show managed to make WYNN DUFFY sympathetic…a man who, I quote, was “going to take a machete & a blowtorch” to make someone “as small as possible.” …but they did. Quarrels was just that messed up.
Duffy was so fun, the fact that he was a previous villain who showed that he was completely unpredictable when provoked makes every moment of his screen time after being shot all the more interesting
Ha! What a play on words! But with the arm severed, there was no way Quarles could use the wrist pistol. It would have been tricky for Raylan to beat Quarles to the draw with the mechanical speed of the pistol on Quarles' arm.
Now you explain why you put yourself in the middle of a situation where you had zero official protection. Raylan does what he does and he's covered, you are merely an eyewitness and that covers you as a bystander.
Nonsense. She owns the bar. One of her customers threatened (in front of witnesses) to kill another. She had every reason to demand that he leave. We're all disappointed, of course, but she prevented the shootout that would otherwise have occurred in her establishment. Legally, she's golden.
How does one even pick a favorite scene from this show? I swear, each episode features some confrontation between Raylan and a baddie that just drips with crackling dialogue and epic one-liners. 2:05 "Why wait?" Absolutely perfect, chills.
To be fair, hearing the sound of a shotgun racking might be the reality check everyone needed in that moment lol I don’t leave my home defense shotgun chambered because I can quickly rack it and that alone might make people leave.
Historically speaking, most shotguns are not considered drop safe. I added the “historically speaking” bit because idk if that’s the case today with a newly purchased gun. I’m sure more of them are drop safe than they were even when Justified was recorded. Anyway, because of that, it’s not uncommon for people to store defensive shotguns with a full mag tube, an empty chamber, dry fired, and the safety off. In that condition it’s drop safe and one pump away from being ready to fire. It’s called “cruiser ready”.
Raylan unaware he has the Travis Bickle set-up in his sleeve...and his hand, at the end...is pointed right at Raylan...so easily, he could have activated the mechanism and out the gun comes and Raylan hasn't even drawn yet. In fact, is looking over at his girlfriend...distracted. SO CLOSE, Raylan, so close!!!
*(spoiler alert)* What tears me about this whole conversation is that Quarles seemed to think he was actually *insulting* Raylan by calling his Daddy a criminal. When Raylan has literally known what kind of person his Daddy is , his whole life. That's why his Aunt Helen raised him. And after Tom Bergen was killed in the brouhaha between Arlo, Quarles and Duffy, Quarles was *going* to die, no two ways about it. I was just surprised it was Limehouse who did it.
I think he did managed to insult Raylan; at least a little bit. Arlo is the source of Raylan’s anger. Raylan has tried to distance himself from his father’s legacy of abuse & criminality…but even though he is a marshal; he constantly pursues a methodology that pushes the limits of the law, because he hates criminals. They remind him of his vile father. Poking Raylan by reminding him that he COMES from a criminal family, directly undermines him; which is why Raylan immediately tries to toss Quarrels out when he says it.
I think it was more to remind Raylan no matter how much he tries to portray the “tough, incorruptible lawman” at the end of the day he’s just an angry kid who got his badge just to spite his father.
The thing about Quarles is that he was in over his head trying to be a boss. Raylan, Boyd and his old don correctly figured that his schemes were going to blow up in his face. But he was well in his element as a psycho fugitive. He only got more dangerous once he was on the run.
@caio3568 Interesting AF comment. So you would prefer they just git-er-dun right there at the bar, instead of waiting for that brilliant HUGE payoff later where Quarles gets dis-armed ?? Seems you got an agenda.
Aside from Raylan in the limo one season later with Nicky Augustine, this is probably my favorite scene in the entire series. It's Quarles zooted out of his mind, furious about losing the election and effectively being outplayed by Boyd who he thought would just be a pushover and now confronting Raylan. This scene in a lot of ways really showed how Quarles just kept compounding mistake after mistake for the entirety of his time in Harlan. He got royally GOT by Boyd and Raylan ended up being well, Raylan. Couldn't be had and he wasn't intimidated by him. Duffy was just done at this point or really just done with the antics of Quarles. He wanted him gone, but couldn't force him out. Tried to blow him up but that didn't go as planned. The further down the hole Quarles went, the worse he got and oddly enough, the more entertaining he became all told. But yeah, Quarles hurls the threat at Raylan not thinking Raylan would call his bluff. His father was a criminal and Raylan had an understated temper in his own right. Mean streak wasn't as pronounced as Arlo's on a lot of fronts but the further along we went, you could see it coming to the forefront and in some levels, I think he was actually scarier than his dad cause he knew how to harness it. The very end of all this with Quarles getting Raylan and the big showdown in the Holler, ending with Limehouse taking his arm and Quarles basically bleeding out telling him that Arlo shot Bergen thinking it was Raylan cause of the hat.
@@ChicksWithPicksPod Raylan already had his gun out. so he had an advantage. plus he's faster and he's been in situations like this many times. Quarles hasn't. at least not against someone like Raylan.
@@joshua5555Yes, it's mathematical. What's the time it takes Raylan to raise his arm and fire versus the time it takes Quarles to activate the wrist gun and fire?
The dinner scene between Raylan and Boyd at the dinner table is the best scene of the series. And then the farmhouse scene as well as the final scene with Boyd and "the we dug coal together line," is the best closing scene in tv history. So for this scene to be 3rd out of those just let's you know how good it really is. Quarrels was ice cold in this scene.
“And that’s why you are the way that you are, Raylan…because your daddy’s a CRIMINAL.” Got to hand it to Quarrels…he found Raylan’s trigger. Earlier, he assumed that Raylan was a dirty marshal…which was completely incorrect & caused Raylan to get a headache (and assault Boyd for instigating it). Here, Quarrels is losing his grip, but understanding his enemy.
If this actor's having some major problems in his life you should go check out what they're doing to him he's a great actor I'm speaking about the guy with the blonde hair
@matthewriley7826 No, he said, "That if it jams, I am screwed. So it has to be perfect everytime." That is why he soent so much time doing maintenence on it.
i think you're looking at quarles wrong. quarles doesn't fit in anywhere because he's a deviant. he doesn't know how to belong anywhere, not with the mob and not in harlan. he's masquerading as a thinker, when he's really a man who operates on emotional whimsy. the casting is perfect because you're not supposed to like quarles at all, because nobody ever does.
This dude is in every great tv show.
He really is. Can adjust to any role, a truly great villian.
Too bad he went off the deep end.

Neal McDonough makes a terrific bad guy.
He asked him about brady Hughes and Raylan went straight for the punchline headlong.
made a career out of it
he was great as far as charisma goes, but he was the second least intimating character in the show. I loved him, but he was not someone that was scary in the least.

The villains/bad guys are what makes a show good or great...........this show had at least 5 of them...........

It’s the oldest movie gun trope: if a pump shotgun appears, someone will pump it.
Ffs, gun jerkoffs.

She'd paint the wall with him like she said. That was a scatter gun. Likely a 20 gauge.

Yes, she kind of messed things up for Raylan, lol.
Now, she had a hole in the ceiling and needed to call for repair
That girl was one of the greatest TV turn downs for me. I was dying to see a Raylan and Quarles showdown at that bar.

maybe, honestly I think I rate Deadwood higher - but I re-watched Justified and I didn't re-watch Deadwood.
well that honor goes to the sopranos...but justified is a solid 2nd....GREAT SERIES
No

Hes an excellent actor
My favorite show

Neal is an amazing actor
Neal McDonough in real life is as good and respectable man as they come. He does play a real bad part well. God Bless
Now what.
Fix the hole in the roof and clear the action on the shotgun.
Never gets old
Holy smokehouse, this is a great show.
He's going DOWN, Raylan always gets hi man. DMRG
