Yeah, it's bad enough that he's doing filler episodes but 90 minute ones? No reason this one needed to run long, it was all TV stalling tactics. Just how many crime gang scheme meetings can one ride to in a single day?

Absolutely. "WHAT!!! You leave your preschool-aged sons at a PORNO STUDIO????". It's insane.
"Why is it so easy for Jax to visit another convicted thug in prison with no red flag raised?"
Once again, as I pointed out last week, SOA is taking place in an alternate universe where people do things that couldn't possibly happen in "real life". A gang of noisy bikers shoots up a house in broad daylight to lure the occupants out and lead them to a handy "abandoned" area "outside town" where they slaughter…
Yes, there was at least some plausibility to it when Unser and Hale were the lead cops, they interacted with the club as "real" cops might in the same situation. Then a shit-ton of other LE figures came along, each one threatening to "clean up" Charming and the result was MORE killings, many of them indiscriminate or…
There's only one real flaw with SOA, but it's a huge and fatal one. SOA doesn't take place in anything resembling the real world. It's fine that Charming is fictional, it's not that, it's that the things that happen on the show couldn't possibly happen in reality. In the last few weeks of SOA time, three cops were…
Juice holds the trump card, he knows what Gemma did. He could completely ruin Jax by telling him what really happened…and I'd LOVE to see it happen.
I dislike that aspect of her character intensely. And Gemma seriously saying she doesn't want "strangers" raising "the boys"…are you shitting me? Those kids regularly get handed off to pretty much every bottom-feeder in the SOA chain, gimme a break.
"We're with the Vipers!"…Tony & Chris' last "fun" moments together.
Yeah, she's all uptight about leaving the kid at pre-school, but she'll leave her grandsons with all sorts of sketchy hookers, bikers and assorted hangers-on, including a woman she refers to as "the junkie", whenever it's time to run around scheming. It's absurd.
When the other gangs find out that Jax was acting out of revenge for a murder his own mother actually committed, they'd have no choice but to agree to completely wipe SOA off the map. Anything else is a cop-out.
Juice finally wises up and goes to the cops. He tells them that he was in Jax's front yard walking toward the house and he heard shots. He entered to find Gemma standing over Roosevelt with a gun in her hand and Tara dead on the kitchen floor. Gemma then forced him at gunpoint to help her escape the scene and to…
And I'm not even close to being a "writer" or a "show runner", that's just nonsense off the top of my head. It's still better than SOA's approach though. No real imagination at all, no sense that these are real people facing real consequences.
Those are totally normal and straightforward films compared to Eraserhead.
The season begins with the words "18 months later" on the screen. A music montage begins. First we see Gemma weeping in court as a judge declares the murder case against her a mistrial. Cut to Wendy and Nero holding hands and walking through a park with his son and Jax's boys. Cut to Juice sitting in a cell alone,…
Awful toy music for awful toy people.
Also the fact that the local police would be ALL OVER the murder of the local sheriff. Hell, the state police would too and probably the feds at this point. Meanwhile, the owner of the home where two people were just murdered (one of them his wife) gets out of jail and immediately begins committing crimes and there's…
The idea that Jax would just immediately accept Gemma's insanely ridiculous story is so absurd it defies belief. "Oh yeah, I saw THAT GUY running from the scene, but I just remembered now"…I mean come on.
Harvey Levin is the scummiest scumbag who's ever scummed. "I'm a lawyer"…what a slab of shit.
GTA features a moronic coke slut who ruined her own career by partying herself into jail? Ha, that could be ANY moronic coke slut that ruined her own career by partying herself into jail.
