In the original tradition of original Grimm fairy tales, which had all of the above and more…sure thing.

naw. the charters will be smart enough to cast the redwood originals out of SoA, and then they'll be free to reforge the MC into Jax's image. Hello sequel spin-off as a newly formed mc rebuilds its empire

Given the lighting, I thought at first it was Tara in a flashback or dream and we'd see him waking up. Then it moved to everyone else getting laid and the light turned on

On the previously, the boy Abel asked Gemma if she knew what an accident is. Did that happen during a montage where there was a moment or two of dialogue? I fast forward through those sometimes, and I have no memory of that exchange. Then again, I do find the kid dismissalbe and tend to blur out when he speaks. And…

That backstory made the woman and children leaving make even less sense. What we saw was him killing off folks in a store and them freaking out about his brutality. Them leaving him like that to get eaten five feet from the front door made zero sense given the context of the world falling apart.
What the back story…

I'm surprised anyone could tell with the lighting they've had this season

I'm glad they finally did the reveal of Eugene's lie. Prolonging it and the lack of skepticism from the others beyond "you owe us something" and then simply accepting human genome and blah blah blah was annoying.

and I'm happy they finally got to the reveal. I was wondering how much longer they were going to drag out his lie and how it would come out.

No, no no. Curse words are fine. It's nipples the signal the end times in America

I couldn't help but think of the Patton Oswald bit about the Star Wars prequels when I heard about this, so no thanks. If it turns out to be good maybe I'll marathon it on Netflix before season 2, but it sounds like lipstick on a pig

The extra muscle were not SOA members. Indian Hills chief said he met them through a whore and could be trusted. Jax therefore figured they were expendable. I don't think he's at the point of killing actual members of one of his club's charters.

and it's a flimsy lie that has been used before, like when Gemma blamed another gangster on her crash with the kids while high

likely ending with Jax as a nomad, severed from all charming ties, but ready for a movie tie-in as the next ghost rider

I like mead. Most of what I find that is called mead is just white wine imbued with honey, or with honey in the filtration/fermenting process. Some beer with same. Not too much just from honey, so it's inconsistent, but I like it, and I prefer sweet wines as alluded to below.

Kind Arthur? Is there going to be a Mean Arthur sequel?

From the last interviews I've heard of him, he's not conservative at all. He is so anti-war and the military industrial complex that he hates all politicians and thinks it's all corporate greed controls everything and so everyone is corrupt. If his politics is keeping him from good roles, it's likely because he's just…

I don't think he comes across nearly as manic to be a poor man's Cage. Though I do see 6+ projects the last two years and 2 for next, so dude clearly isn't saying no to much. Not that he should. Work is work.

but that was zombie targeting. when you are shooting a moving live people, you are more likely to miss until convenient for the plot. Like the governor's first assault, where they retreated even though noone had actually been shot or killed,and Karen called it a slaughter, which it wasn't until the governor killed…

Yeah, I mean any sensible group, being in a group, would have sent in 1 or 2 of theirs to scout the place and see if everything is ok. No word back within a day means come to the rescue. But no, let's all enter the mostly unlocked door and just end up in a cattle car 'cause we're outnumbered.

but not the nudity from Jesse leaping from that second story window. I've heard it's the same for Vikings, which has a european take/release with more nudity that is only on blueray here
