One of modern television's best Western series, "Justified" is an engrossing, fast-paced drama bursting with memorable characters. Based on the works of often-adapted author Elmore Leonard, the series is set in Harlan County, Kentucky, and centers around Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens. A sharp-shooting lawman who rides the line between do-gooder and outlaw, he's one of the most recognizable heroes in a striking hat this side of Harrison Ford's whip-wielding relic hunter.
While Timothy Olyphant is excellent as Raylan, what really makes "Justified" so riveting is its ensemble of villains. A string of violent thugs, heinous henchmen, and ruthless rogues, each one seems worse — and better — than the last. With so many devilishly delightful villains to enjoy, you might find yourself wondering how they rank against each other. You're in luck: We've put them in order, from the sleaziest crooks to the most powerful crime lords. Don't be too upset if your favorite missed our list — the show is just so jam-packed with great baddies, we couldn't include them all. Put on your hat and put out a BOLO, because we're ranking the best villains on "Justified."
