Sons of Anarchy

[stacy]

I discovered the show just before this season (5) started, caught up on 4 seasons in 2 weeks and cannot get enough now. My whole world stops on Tuesday nights.

Obsessed with Charlie Hunnam too.

Anyone else?

[cockbrain]

Looked up Charlie and NICE...he's a beaut.

[Ohiospeedo]

Love Charlie Hunnam and SOA. Should be an interesting couple of episodes coming up.

If you like Charlie, I suggest you check out Green Street Hooligans.

[stacy]

Never a dull moment in Charming.

Charlie is great in Green Street Hooligans. And for a completely different contrast check out Queer as Folk UK and see him as a twinky gay kid (the Justin role, if you've seen the American version).

There's a movie coming up on DVD called 3,2,1...Frankie Go Boom where Ron Perlman (Clay Morrow on SOA) plays transgender, and Charlie plays a comedic role - his degenerate brother (played by Chris Dowd) secretly tapes him having an awkward one night stand and sells it to a porn producer. Perlman plays a man, who is now a woman, who the brother shared a jail cell with. The movie centers around Charlie's character as he drags his brother around LA trying to find the tape so they can destroy it. I have't seen the actual movie but the trailer is hilarious.

Anyway, about SOA. I have a mad girl-crush on Katey Sagal, love Theo Rossi (Juice) and the way this show is written just gets me every time. Last night I found myself yelling things at the TV, which I seem to do every week.

Season 5 finale was brutal.

Best Moments last night:

Gemma and Tara in their almost fight

Jax "double-crosses" Tig

Pope gets killed. (That guy is such a good actor)

Juice trying to warn Clay

Gemma not giving Clay an alibi. WHEW! Loved it

When Tig saved that dog I am such an animal lover. I think the dog fighting scenes were some of the hardest for me to watch.

[stacy]

I marathon watched all 4 seasons leading up to this season and in all that death and violence the only time I have had to turn away was last night's dogfighting scenes. I yelled at the screen "Kurt Sutter if you show them killing that dog I'm done with you."

Tara being arrested, heartbreaking. I am glad they went with Jax "double-crossing" Tig rather than giving him up for real, he'd already done enough to prove he was in Clay territory as President.

Sutter said he wanted to give Tig a replacement for Dawn, hence the saving of the dog. A reporter from an interview I just read commented that Tig and the dog were really the only ones who had a happy ending.

Looks like the new nemesis for season 6 is the marshall who's sister was killed. He's signed on for 10 episodes and has been in 2.

There's rumor that it was not Gemma who put Tara's arrest in motion after all, Sutter is letting the speculations fly and not answering that question head on.

Watched the British version of Queer as Folk last year- better than US series- mainly because of Charlie- cutest little ass on the planet- the scene where Stuart rims him is so freaking hot- he actually was getting his ass licked- oh to be an acotr!

[MissAnne]

The boys shave Opie's beard. Really touching.

[stacy]

Love that video. Made me cry when I saw it. I love that these guys are all really friends.

Opie's death was even more heart-wrenching knowing what the impact it has outside the show too.

Ughh, it was just horrible.

[stacy]

I love shows that make me yell at the screen and hate the show creator/writers.

On more than one occasion I yelled verbal assaults at Kurt Sutter.

Tonight on Twitter Kurt is answering Season 5 questions from 10-10:30 PST

Incidentally what the hell am I going to do for the next 9 months with no Sons?

Thank goodness Justified starts soon.

Ive never seen Justified. It looks good. I know that it probably is because I love those actors. Maybe its on Netflix. When I see Walton Goggins on the commericals all I can picture is Venus Van Damme.



We're still laughing about it in my house. I loved his character and the interaction with Tig. Priceless. We needed that laugh, especially after Opie's death.

[stacy]

Timothy Olyphant is tasty and, you should watch it just for the fact that seeing Walton Goggins as Boyd Crowder makes Venus Van Damm even more deliciously funny on Sons.

I showed everyone I know just that scene even if they knew nothing about SOA. Priceless.

[MoufOfKhaos]

I'm in the same boat as stacy - I started watching the show as season 5 was just starting, and voraciously caught up on every happening in Charming up until the finale. I. LOVE. IT. So in love with Theo Rossi too, btw.

[stacy]

Theo Rossi is great. One of the things I screamed at my TV was "please do not kill Juice!"

I know that the show is loosely based on Hamlet, which means EVERYONE is going to die but dammit, WHY?!

Thankfully Juice is safe at least for now.

[MoufOfKhaos]

Theo Rossi is great. One of the things I screamed at my TV was "please do not kill Juice!"

I screamed the same thing too - it's been a while since a character on a TV show made me want to hug him and tell him everything would be okay, but his does it for me. I want Juice to redeem himself BADLY.

[dingue]

this season is finished then?
they are making a next one?

i'm hooked for sure!

[stacy]

This season (5) just finished in the US. The show creator has said he will finish the entire story in 7 seasons. They begin filming again in March/April or something like that, maybe later, and season 6 starts in the US in September.
