I never want to hear Peg Bundy singing again. I never want to see that god drat table again. I never want to look into the dead, dead eyes of the worst loving child actor EVER, ever again. But I'm going to watch this till the end because my OCD won't let me leave it unfinished. So as the millions of plot holes combine to form an event horizon of a giant gaping anus capable of swallowing the entire universe, I'll be there with you, my fellow goons.

And I'll suddenly realize while I'm at work doing an entirely unrelated task that the reason whoever Jax beats up gets their face all busted is because of his bigass SO|NS rings that are basically legal brass knuckles.

Help me, goons. I've fallen into the abyss, and I can't get out.

Somebody needs to compare the body counts between this show and Dexter because I'm pretty sure Jax is a more prolific and less repentant serial killer. Even if his personal body count is lower he is kind of a bigger monster because at least Dexter seems to realize he SHOULD think murder is wrong. I mean, Dexter's wife was ACTUALLY killed by one of his enemies and he didn't go on a mass murdering revenge spree over it.

Have you ever tried to drive from Bakersfield or whereverthefuck Charming is supposed to be near, to Oregon? I mean it takes like two whole days, if you aren't geeked out on coffee or whatever!

Seems like a lot of :effort: just to go into hiding. :downsrim:

I think you'd have to include murders done by the rest of SoA on Jax's orders as well. If talking about how you smothered a prostitute to death to a man who apparently isn't ever going to betray you over it is enough to get you marked for death then refusing to shoot people as ordered is most likely enough as well.

Yeah the club bodycount is obviously insane, but I'm more just weirded out by the "suicide" scene where Jax just casually murdered someone he had already rendered defenseless with his bare hands in a gruesome way and it had no emotional impact on him at all. This is the introspective guy with the notebook?

That's what makes scenes like this:



So infuriating to watch. Sutter wants you to believe that the Sons are noble, misunderstood heroes -- that Jax is guided by conscience and the welfare of others, then he casually kills a guy with his bare hands a few hours later.

Remember when the letters were a big deal? The secret that Gemma and Clay were behind JT's death? Those things were substantial plots stretched out for six seasons. Now nobody on the show remembers that they were ever thing, aside from Nero casually referencing Gemma's "bad luck" with husbands in a throwaway line an episode or two ago. Imagine if (Shield spoiler): everything surrounding Crowley's murder was resolved off-screen and never mentioned again.

Sutter's trying to out-Peter Jackson Peter Jackson: this season is merely stretching out a single episode of plot over an entire season. It'd be one thing if this was just a bad season, but it's retroactively making GBS threads on earlier seasons by showing that none of the earlier plots mattered: the letters, Gemma and Clay's betrayal, JT's murder, the Feds pursuing the Sons, the school shooting, etc. -- nothing prior to Tara's murder matters. A person could start watching the show at last season's finale and very little would be different.

The "letters" were just another example of The Sutter Stall. The best part was how that season found increasingly contrived reasons to keep any character just going up to Jax and saying "here, look at these." And then when we finally get to the finale, Clay has murdered Piney, ordered a hit on Tara, and beaten Jax's mother. The letters were completely unnecessary.

This is the best every time it happens because it shows how these club members are retarded violent children.

What the hell is it with these scenes from previous seasons being shown in the ads? Are they trying to remind us that this show was once worth watching? Cause that's kind of like rubbing salt in the wound. And then the current episode comes back on and Kurt rapes that burning orifice, as if we weren't in enough pain.

So, looks like constantly callously murdering the poo poo out of people for no reason or on bad information and constantly double-crossing your "business" partners starts to have actual repercussions.

This show is trying to hard to portray the Sons as victims when everything single one of them save maybe Chibs deserves to get violently beat to death for what they've done.

I like how they tried to make the Sons look noble by having Tig fire at that guy just for being mad at the kid, and then moments later we're treated to Jax saying "Sorry for your loss."

"Yes ma'am, I'm sorry for murdering your son in cold blood for no reason."
