Television Sons of Anarchy

[Sky1981]

It started quite solid, but dragged on and it's becoming a shithouse show near the end

over the top cringeyness
brother, trust me brother, brother x 100
Jax lacking charisma to be taken seriously as head boss
Gemma is getting unbelievable cartoonish villain
The escalations with the cartel has gone beyond ridiculous

Can't blame them though, the showmaker intended this to be shakespearean and shakespeare it is. And for a show about MC they have the shittest collection of bikes, there's no fancy decals, not even a mention of any bikes in all the seasons. One would think an MC would be quite particular about their brand of bikes but it's generic bike used throughout the series. And the porn industries is just... unbelievable it's as if 3-4 porn stars making porn can actually fetch alot of money more than selling drugs.

Probably best to avoid the one other post on this page as it does contain a few spoilers

Decent show, but thought it peaked season 3. I preferred the earlier seasons where they had to deal with local problems & keeping Charming secure whilst doing their business. Got quite over the top in later seasons.

Wasn't expecting Sonny Barger to turn up!

So just finished it. A brilliantly entertaining show. Reiterating that it can very daft at times but that's ok. The twists were fun. Sometimes it felt like it was one thing after another, but also that 11 out of the 13 shows in a season would be setting up the last one or two.

I've never seen a show with more "Jesus Christ" moments though.

The characters were great. First season, as I already mentioned, they were pretty much all unlikeable (even Bobby was a bit rapey), but they changed that and some of them turned out to be pretty complex. I definitely wanted a bullet in a few but also felt sorry for them at times (eg. Clay). Also turned on some after liking them, but still felt sorry for em (Tara and Juice).

Spoiler: Last episode

Can't believe Jax went out with such a bad green screen heading for that truck. Kinda ruined the moment a bit. The build up was cool though.

Became a bit of a slog getting through the final two years, but it was pretty good overall. Those who want to view it need to have a good suspension of disbelief.
