Sutter is ALREADY cussing out people who thought the writing was weak and while claiming at the same time that his show was no 'The Wire' (well no shit). Sutter and SOA at this point are extensions of each other. Both put on a big, flashy mess about having big ass balls and end up making terrible decisions when it

Ugh Unser. So you're ready to reel Clay in, then you're ready to cover it up for him, then you're ready to pin it on him. It's kind of a tradition with this series for characters to be crazy irresponsible and wishy-washy, it's amazing they've lasted this long. Now Opie will have gone from rage over Donna, to forgiving

I think it more has to do with what we've seen on the show already and how we've developed a relationship with each of the characters. Yeah, Gemma didn't get raped and beaten (again) in a graphic 5 minute scene in a gritty French tunnel but comparing a scene to anything out there in the world makes for a bad review.

Wow, 746 discos. Got through first page before going on but in case it wasn't said already:

Just read past anything that says: "SPOILERS". This whole farm plot is from the comics.

At this point he's done completely unless Linc keeps their relationship secret, that requires trust and since they've used his race against him and set him up with drugs there's none of that. There's also the very big Stahl lesson.

The Sons perspective doesn't explain Leroy's deference to the Sons who are usually not muscle heavy and are on the losing side of the cartel warring, forcing Niners to be on the losing side as well. There's no reason to thank them or not ditch them completely.

First time Clay probably believed it too.

That came across really gross.

This is another episode where I don't get the dynamics between Sons and their black counterparts. The Niners generally deal with drugs which the Sons never did, so the Niners wouldn't expect to have to do anything with the Sons over their drug business. The Sons get into it randomly, don't tell the Niners and then

'It doesn't just stay in us'. Hilarious.

Clay sure didn't spend that much time trying to find out where the copies were. Sloppy work, especially when he knows Piney set up plans in case of fatal contingencies. And the lying to Gemma, taking a chance she wasn't at the club seemed sloppy and hoping she wouldn't suspect, or do more than just suspect, that he

I'm hoping Gemma does give up Clay knowing he destroys even family when it comes to his goals, it'd be out of character for her to let it slide (if she does dare to assume Clay offed Piney). She loves Tara, Jax loves Tara, her grandkids love Tara. Clay's gotta go.

Thanks, must've zoned out in the premier.

Anyone else notice how awkward it is when the babysitter is around because she's around ALL THE TIME? Why is she at home with both Dexter and Deb there? And why is she asking Dexter to watch his own son while she throws out a stinky diaper? She's at the hospital, everywhere, asking Dexter if he needs her. And then

Good point, I think I'm going to revisit the episodes in which she's placed opposite another woman in Tony's life. I wonder if Chase ever commented thoroughly on Meadow in an interview.

You've explained why I hate her character very well, and in context of Ade's position. In addition, Todd's comment below about how she's presented opposite another woman Tony has to deal with is another way to juxtapose her with those that don't have it so well. It shows her innocence through Tony's eyes but at the

I agree that Adriana is an innocent but not with the implication that she and Meadow are the only ones. Meadow in particular is a special brand of not innocent. She doesn't get involved but by the end of the series has come up with some amazing logic twisting to justify her dad's existence. She had to come to a point

This season I had the sense that SOA was another cop/outlaw show focused on a white group with pretty bad representations of other groups when they come up. It's one thing to represent the racism/ignorance in the protagonists and it's another to represent an outside group in a weak way. The African American female
