Is there a show that has a better group of antagonist/villains than Justified?

Finally finished up Justified (yeah, I'm a touch late to the party) and am having a hard time trying to remember another show that had such a great gallery of antagonists from top to bottom.
We have:
Boyd Crowder
Mags Bennett
Arlo Givens
Wynn Duffy (may be my non-Boyd fav)
Dewey Crowe
Ellstin Limehouse
Dickie Bennett
And so on.
Maybe The Wire? The Sopranos?
Thoughts?

Other than whiffing hard on Rapaport, agreed. At times, you root for Dewey Crowe and random members of the Crowders.

Game of Thrones for all its faults I think is the clear winner:
Joffrey Baratheon
Cersei Lannister
Tywin Lannister
Roose Bolton
Ramsey Bolton
Littlefinger
Walder Frey
The Night King
Janos Slynt
The Mountain
Qyburn
Viserys Targaryen
Melisandre
The High Sparrow
Pretty solid lineup

How could you forget the biggest villain of them all?

Who does this board hate more...those guys, or Rian Johnson?

You’re right. I forgot about Fat Bastard.

i would agree that there were fantastic gallery of rogues.
i think comparing them to GoT or Sopranos is a little unfair because you can show the Mountain crushing a man's skull or Joffrey filling a naked Roz full of arrows. Justified being on network TV puts limits on that.
Limehouse was no villain. An antagonist at times to Raylon, sometimes allies, but not a villain.
ETA: i guess you did include antagonist in the OP. My bad.

Best use of comic relief in a series. I love every moment he is on screen

Mags Bennett
One of the greatest villains in television history. I'm not saying she is THE greatest, but she definitely deserves to be in that conversation.
Apple pie, bitches!

Sorta related, I really want a show with the main character(s) being really just evil supervillain trying to take over the world in brutal fashion... and succeeding

I loved Neal McDonough as Robert Quarles too.
Posted on 12/17/20 at 4:01 pm to EyeOfTheTiger311
Quarles was the only big bad I felt was a miss. I agree with general premise.
Boyd Crowder and Mags Bennett being in the same show is insane. No show has had two compelling GOAT level villains like that in same show.

Boyd's "preaching" was some of my favorite scenes from the show.

Boyd is one of the greatest characters ever put on screen.

Johnson hands down for me. I had no attachment to GOT other than watching the show as an adult.
What Johnson did to Luke Skywalker was like raping my childhood...

I've watched Justified twice all the way through and damn I could go for another. Like someone else said, the only mess up the whole series was Michael Rapaport. He was trash. Everything else was done to perfection.

D&D for me.
I like Star Wars but I was big time into ASOIAF when it came out.

Justified even made Mike O’Malley a workable bad guy. That’s all you need to know.
