FX's hit gunslinger drama 'Justified' has largely used its fourth season as an experiment, shifting toward the mystery genre rather than introducing a central villain as in the previous years, and today it seems that gamble has paid off. As the network announces future business from its Upfront presentation, the acclaimed cable station has officially renewed 'Justified' for a fifth season, with only one week to go before the end of its fourth. Get the scoop on 'Justified' season 5 inside!

Raylan Givens and his family may have been left in some dire straights by the end of this past Tuesday's 'Justified' episode "Peace of Mind," but don't expect the adventures of the Harlan county Marshal to come to an end just yet. FX has officially announced that 'Justified' will return for a fifth season in 2014, delivering the news just one week before season 4 wraps up.

Additional details will follow as FX makes announcements from its Upfront presentation, but what say you? Are you glad to have Raylan Givens and Boyd Crowder (we hope!) back for another season? How have you been finding the Drew Thompson mystery?
