SONS OF ANARCHY tv series disscussions and comments

I want to see what comes of those letters from Jax's dad. Also, I hope they do some more with the hospital admin and Tara. The good/bad conscience of her and Gemma wanting Tara to take sides is great fun. I also want to see if the Russians come back.
 
Well, fantastic start to the new season! My only complaint was that there seemed to be almost as much time taken up in advertising as there was in the actual show.
 
I know I like it when it limited commerical interuption. the body count is rising all ready on the new episode. the russians are out of the picture and clay has eyes on destroying the housing project in charming for some reason. and what do you guys
think of the sherrif and fbi characters.
 
Great start to the new season! At this point, the series is so rich and deep, it hardly matters what the plotline is anymore.

I didn't much notice the ads because I zap em all. However, I did notice the "Miller Lite" nonsense at the start - somehow I don't think the Sons are imbibing too much of that crap, which would probably be grounds for expulsion from the MC. I caught a fleeting glimpse of a Jack Daniels ad at one point, which would have been far more appropriate to be given prime position.

and what do you guys think of the sherrif and fbi characters.
I like em. I recognized Roosevelt as C-Note from Prison Break (where ironically enough, his real name was Benjamin Franklin, which is where C-Note comes from, so "Roosevelt" an in-joke? :D), so he'll be terrific. The FBI guy is wonderfully off-kilter and just a little bit creepy, and also named after a president (Lincoln 'Linc' Potter), so the names must definitely be an in-joke.

But the ratings are no joke!
The series’ 90-minute Season 4 premiere last night became the most-watched episode in the series’ history in Live+Same Day with 4.94 million viewers, and FX projects that it will likely be the most-watched single episode ever for an FX original series in Live+7. In total viewers, SOA was up a whopping 20% from the show’s third-season debut.
 
well the sons are in for it now since killing the russians they killed a fed as well unbenost to them that he was a fed any way. as for the rateings which are cool to watch an all I really don't go by them I go by shows that I like or love. I surprised jax has started the ratings posting yet.

^^^ That's VERY good news. In the Season 3 DVD extras, Sutter mentions that he has a layout for a full 7 seasons. If the ratings hold, we will hopefully see a full series run and there won't be as much of a question about the possibility of continuation or cancellation as there had been in the past. :techman:

Great start. The Russians taken out quickly and easily. The fed informer, I will wait to see if he was one or if he's the only one. The attorney didn't want him to have a wire that night- luck or plan or did someone tip off the Sons? What is the new sheriff's background and could Salazar have some connections to him? The letters from Ireland come into play. Gemma and Tara seemed to have developed a stronger relationship in spite of the letters (which only Tara knows about so far.) Lots of bad directions for suspicion to go here. Great episode. Hale should go balistic when the bodies are found come morning work shift.

As for the housing project question, the project is very high end. It would bring in wealthy law abiding folk who'd expect a real police force and no gangs riding around.
 
I would love a solid ten which would be awesome. 7 is deffinatelly 100 episodes which is cool....
 
Nice touch to put Dave Kushner in the bar playing guitar. He is the guy who wrote the theme tune.
 
Great episode. I didn't expect them to deal with Russians so fast, looks like the new sheriff and the FBI guy will be the big bads of this season.

The new FBI guy is the priest from the first season of Deadwood. He was weird there too ...
 
Keep an eye on Juice, he seems someone that may have some interesting developments. I wouldn't be surprised if he turned out to be a deep cover mole in the future.

The fantastic Ray McKinnon is portraying an Assistant US Attorney, not an FBI agent.

[...] The letters from Ireland come into play. [...]
Speaking of the letter Gemma found, was anyone able to make out what it said, or was there not enough focus on it? All I could read was the Ashby letterhead, Jax's name, and Maureen's name.

Exactly. The Sons have always been adamantly opposed to any "modernizing" influence on Charming that would move it away from its quaint little town "charms" (yes, I had to use that word) into becoming a larger city.

7 is deffinatelly 100 episodes which is cool....
7 seasons of 13 episodes each would be 91 episodes total, not 100. ;)
 
The note was the one that Maureen wrote telling Jax to read the letters and see what John Teller was like with her. I guess Tara will be uncertain what to do with them. Will they help his thinking to get out of the club or drive him further in? Now that Gemme knows of the letters she is going to wonder which or both knows of the letters. She will know one at least of Jax and Tara knows of the letters.
 
tonight episode 2 of season 4 "BOOSTER" . I hope they have very little comerical interuption this time like they did last year.
