Exclusive: Mark O’Brien (Your Honor) will exec produce and star in the coming-of-age drama Topper from 1A Motion Pictures and Bad Lad Productions, which has wrapped production in Detroit. Others set for major roles include Paul Johansson (God Is a Bullet), Amanda Clayton (City on a Hill), and actor-comedians Jimmy Shubert (Entourage), Bryan Callen (Warrior) and Erik Griffin (Workaholics).
The first feature written and directed by actor Kevin McNamara (Why Women Kill) follows Topper (O’Brien), a hard-drinking middling comedian with a seemingly endless capacity for self-sabotage. Topper receives news that his estranged father (Johansson) is terminally ill and begrudgingly returns to Detroit to sell the family home, which was never much of a home to him.
While back in Detroit, the friends he left behind — Lucas (Callen), Cooper (Griffin) and Ray (Shubert) — aren’t shy about pointing out how far he has drifted off course, despite showing early promise as a young comic.

Prominent 1950′s politician, Adlai E Stevenson was quoted as saying, ”You can tell the size of a man by the size of the thing that makes him mad.” Justified‘s mobile drug kingpin, Wynn Duffy must be living large because through all of Boyd Crowder’s (Walton Goggins) misfires and failings, he rarely raises one of his expressive eyebrows. When Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) is playing Harlan Roulette with him, well, that’s reason to get plenty mad. But most of the time he sits parked in his mobile home, somewhere in Kentucky, scheming with his lone bodyguard Mike (Jonathan Kowalsky) on watch while he’s inside, drinking tea or watching a women’s tennis match.
He’s carried out the dirty work of the Dixie Mafia and served as Robert Quarles’ yes man; now he has stuck by Boyd, through thick and thin – all for a piece of the action in Kentucky.

The explosives have begun to go off in the “Year of the Crowes” FX’s Justified with just two episodes left. Art Mullen’s (Nick Searcy) been shot and his deputies need to step up while he lies on a hospital bed in critical condition. Raylan Given’s (Timothy Olyphant) struggle with the Crowe family reached the point of no return, as has the partnership between Boyd Crowder (Walton Goggins) and Wynn Duffy (Jere Burns). Oh and Ava (Joelle Carter) has just asserted herself as an alpha in the prison system and builds her own criminal rep. Five years in, Justified continues to help lead the pack of superb television and as always there are plenty of cogs in motion, and we’ve got Executive Producer/Showrunner Graham Yost on board to talk about this current and next year’s final season, how their writer’s room is unique, and...

If you’ve been watching the fifth season of Justified then you know one of the subplots is observing the relationship between Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) and his work-dad and boss, Deputy Art Mullen (Nick Searcy) disintegrate after Raylan confesses his role in the murder of one of Theo Tonin’s henchman. Art’s response to Raylan’s disclosure was connecting a right hook to his marshal’s face. Since then, things have been icy and Raylan has gone as far to request a transfer out of Kentucky. It may not be as fun as hunting Drew Thompson, but Art has had a volatile season so far including being a part of one of the most intense scenes in the show’s run. We caught up with actor and “Acting School Teacher” Nick Searcy to talk about the latest season of Justified.

Justified Season 5 Episode 3: Good Intentions
Having too much information makes it easy to think you have an episode figured out, and that’s exactly what the writers wanted you to believe in “Good Intentions.” So when the Us Marshals arrested Charles Monore’s (Xander Berkeley) for racketeering with the Tonins in last week’s episode, “The Kids Aren’t All Right,” Raylan (Timothy Olyphant) wasted no time using all of his possessions including his car and house like Spanish Fly to woo Allison (Amy Smart). We learned that Raylan’s new squeeze likes to smoke weed and planted crystal meth on her ex-husband, who came after her to get revenge. But guess who Raylan decided to side with? Even Rachel (Erica Tazel) thought this was another case of a Bonnie and Clyde act working Raylan and exploiting his weakness to score and protect a woman. Could anyone blame her?...

Spoiler alert! If you haven’t watched this week’s episode of Justified, “Good Intentions” written by Benjamin Cavell and directed by Dean Parisot, stop reading now. As he’ll do throughout the season, showrunner Graham Yost takes us inside the writers room.
Entertainment Weekly: Let’s start with Allison (Amy Smart) smoking pot. She’s not necessarily as innocent as we thought.
Graham Yost: Right. Although in our present context, I think, like, the NFL is gonna relax the rules on pot smoking — when that happens, you know everything has changed.

If you’re still buzzing about Justified’s Season Three finale, “Slaughterhouse” then you’re probably wondering about what will happen in season 4. There were no cheap cliffhangers to hold viewers hostage–not that there’s anything wrong with those, but that’s where Justified sets itself apart from many shows, because they can close stories at the end, they satisfy and they know how to build a season from the ground up and start over again. You have to admire that kind of confident storytelling and thankfully, FX recognized that so that viewers could experience it. They already know you’ll come back, but Graham Yost, Elmore Leonard and the rest of the Justified writers wrapped up several plot lines that began in Seasons One and Two in addition to those started in Season 3. Does that mean that they didn’t leave some morsels for us to chew on?...

Booth and Brennan question Genaro’s peers and the club bouncer (guest star Sabato Jr.), and Brennan surprisingly proves her pop culture savvy and anthropological expertise after watching what she believes to be a documentary on the inhabitants of the Jersey Shore, but was in actuality a reality show set there. Meanwhile,...
