Not exactly "villain to hero", but Walton Goggins (Boyd Crowder) survived all 6 seasons of "Justified" and writers had to try really hard for viewers to dislike him. Despite him being a main adversary to lead character (Raylan Givens played by Timothy Olyphant).
I never watched Justified but I liked Goggins' performance on The Shield. His fucked up relationship with Vic Mackey was something that in the later seasons made it one of the best shows on TV.
But "Justified" was in my opinion even more satisfying ride for Goggins fans. It's worth mentioning that according to novel "Justified" was based for, Boyd Crowder should be dead after episode 1, but he got such a rare reviews after focus checks following pilot that author agreed for a switch to "seriously injured" to keep Crowder for the future.
