He liked the way his characters were written in "Justified". He said "It's never overdone. It's just right."
I like "Justified" too. As one critic said, "the language just sparkles and pops".
Noah Adams of NPR did a segment about Elmore Leonard today, calling him "the Dickens of Detroit". When I read that, at first I thought he meant "Dickens" as in "isn't he a little dickens" but then I realized he was probably referring to the author. I guess I thought that because Raylan certainly is a "little dickens".

What does 'isn't he a little dickens' mean Judy. We don't hear it over here. We do however,have the phrase to "go like the dickens' which means very fast.
Oh, it's like a "little devil' but meant in a benevolent way, like a little rascal or a little scamp. We have "go like the dickens" too.
