I searched and saw some old threads, but none were really current. So, here we are.


I've known about the show since it started, but at the time, I wasn't into TV that much. Didn't really watch anything. After getting into several shows, a friend told me I need to watch it. He went so far as to give me his Netflix account info so I had no excuse. I just finished the season 3 finale and HOLY poo! BEST episode of any show I have ever watched. The balls those writers have to pull that off so amazingly is nothing short of spectacular.


Gonna try to catch up before Tuesday (which is likely, since I don't work again until Tuesday night and the only thing stopping me is eating, sleeping, and the game tomorrow). I absolutely love this show.

Nothing like a TV show binge to get caught up.  This last episode really popped.

OK, just finished season six, episode 9. This show is simply amazing. It has it's moments that leave something to be desired, but overall, it's BRILLIANTLY done, both in writing and acting. Great shots by the film crew, especially during chase sequences. There have been some nifty moments of camera work that made me very happy. 

Also, as dark and heavy as the show is most of the time, I like how they throw in just enough humor to relieve you. Can't remember which episode it was, but the episode where Jax makes the chop shop guy and his cops on the take apologize to the entire club. I fuging lost it. Too damn funny.


I think I might almost like this more than TWD....almost...

Meh it's best not to open TV threads if you're not caught up on that show, that's general interweb knowhow lol.  Show has been good and yes, definitely better than TWD but that is most of the 20+ tv shows I watch.    Jax can't win, every time he gets a win for the club is home life takes a hit.   He was insane to think he could clean up the club and live a happy "legit" life with the wife and kids.   One of the 9ers' men even hinted at it on this episode.   Jax is destined to live and die with the club, and that is why I don't blame Tara, she wants to break the cycle and get the kids out, but not sure what she's going to do now.  She should have went to Oregon when Jax said to though.  Jimmy Smits has been amazing on this show and should really get some award recognition as supporting actor.

See, I can't stand Tara because of how she is doing this. I agree, she SHOULD be trying to get the boys out, but had she just listened to Jax when he told her to go, this wouldn't be happening. Or if she just talked to him and explained why she wanted to go away until he straightened poo out, I'm sure he'd be OK (it was his idea to begin with).

Jimmy Smits is amazing. I'm really curious how Nero handles the news of Jax and Juice. I was expecting him to straight up choke Jax last night.

I'm not sure Nero goes head to head.  The scene with his comforting Jax instead of going off on him, showed a lot of restraint and sympathy so it would be a turn for him to go head to head.  I do think Nero starts thinking for the future and realizes he can't trust Jax, so maybe he splits off the girls business and starts helping the Mayans.  Not sure.  He cares about Gemma so it's complicated for him.

No, general know how is to at least have a spoiler warning for a major plot point in a general discussion thread. It's not like this thread is "SOA season 6 thread". That would make it ok IMO.

      Dan Morgan has the chance to do the funniest thing

      I don't think Rodgers but probably not for the political reasons I bet a lot of posters are motivated by. I just think he is not the QB for the Panthers, at all.

      It wasn't great but  the 2022 NYG won 9 of 16 games plus a playoff game. He had a 92.5 passer rating. 15 pass TDs 3200 yards, 7 rushing TD, 700 yards 6 fumbles 3 lost.  His first season he had 18 fumbles lost 11. Wow.  Anyhow he had problems in 2023 with injuries and didn't win poo before tearing his ACL. This year, no Barkley, not good, but you know.... these ACLs take a while and it was right and he throws right so pushes off of it.  I agree it doesn't hurt to let that guy compete cheap. You don't hand him the job like with Bryce or NYG with him.  When I look at what we have been saddled with, he doesn't look worse and has the physical advantage. So I don't get the umbrage given our situation. This "No we won't settle for anything less that the best" attitude and then taking Bryce Young was pathetic and I think that attitude brought us to where we are. That's where that poo gets you. Away from Mayfield, away from Darnold, even away from PJ - just to replace them with an inferior PJ.  At the same time I am not really advocating for the guy just looking at it objectively. It could be another guy with the same story. And yes the odds of him getting it are low but the numbers and performance from 2022 are for sure better than we see with Bryce even after a season of major propping him up with better players around him. Take a look don't take a look he fails or he doesn't fail...   to instead sit here and be happier with what we have is bullshit.
