Have they ever explained how Juice got into the club in the first place? They remember the 'hacker' specialty every other season and the subplot about his father was completely superfluous. He's probably my favorite character because he does the least amount of terrible things, which makes me wonder why he's with the Sons at all.

I have to wonder how much of Sutter's writing/directing was made worse or better by consulting with Sonny Barger.
Juice was alright until he killed someone that was way cooler than him. I miss Miles. :(

Juice is still somewhat sympathetic in that he seems like a decent guy. As decent as a member of a murderous, gun running motorcycle gang can be I guess.
Killed a solid SoA member, forever douche.

It's like Charlie Hunnam will only work on projects with Ron Perlman.
That reminds me, Ron Perlman voices some beer commercial and the leader of the mexican bike club in SoA plays a chicken wing cook in the same one. Did we even see that guy this season?

Yeah, the main difference being that Olyphant's input makes the show look cooler. Chiklis' input makes Chiklis look cooler.
I dont think this makes much sense, how do you know who gave input where?

I heard it was Tims idea to run that gentleman over instead of shooting him, I'd say thats pretty cool thing to do.

I didnt understand the gunfight. Maybe I need to watch the ep again (I wont), but the Persian was in a small room with 2 sons. He pulls the gun out of the box and backs out of the room before he starts shooting? God drat idiot, just kill the sons so I dont have to keep watching this show. Chibs and Happy can live though. Give them a show on FXX where they start a babysitting team.

I like how Bobby needed a huge map and a crayon to write down four names because he couldn't remember them. 2nd last ep he brought it to a bar just to write two names down, thats just like the douchebags that bring their laptops to Starbucks to chat on facebook.

Soa: Ok, heres your pen.

The IRA didn't give them a keg of beer as a gift, no. Chucky told Gemma they needed beer and soda, Chucky got a delivery of beer. Of all the things to complain about in SoA, this isn't one of them.

The teasers they show on FX are so subtle. Gee, do you think maybe some of these main characters are going to die this year?

Kurt Sutter writing 101: You can pull off goofy A-Team antics where the main cast flop around in gunfights and remain unharmed all you want, but when its the final season its suddenly ok to kill them all for "plot reasons". Maybe Im wrong, but thats what it seems like to me.

edit: I am more excited to hear the U2 song than I am to see new footage of the show.

Gross premier, flat characters stiff dialogue and what the gently caress a bunch of inner city pastors filming amatuer porn? More questions than answers

Please tell me Sutter hates his audience so much he made them sit through 30 minutes of commercials until they got through this poo poo sandwich made with montage bread
And why did the pornstar/prostitute have a gun ready to shoot in under 2 seconds? Weird.

I hate to compare this show to breaking bad, but the things that happen in this show are sometimes "extreme" but since there isnt a good reason for most of it I just forget what happened previously. Things that happened in BB would really stick with you and the plot advanced because of it. Remember that there was a school shooting last season, or the season before? I don't even know. Remember Clay died? We wanted him dead so long and I forgot that it happened until someone reminded me.

And yeah, that torture scene was confusing and stupid. That dude seemed cool and I was hoping for more backstory on him.
