Posted December 28, 201311 yr So I've just started watching this as I needed something new to get in to. Anyone else watching? Does it get really really good at some point?
January 16, 201411 yr Everyone keeps telling me to start watching SOA.. maybe should but so focused on Arrow + Almost Human atm.
January 16, 201411 yr Is it that great?? Tension keeps building thrughout seasons ?? any cool twists etc? Edited January 16, 201411 yr by Rickky
January 16, 201411 yr Yes, it is really good. The first season is really just scene setting but after that it really starts to pick up. Season 3 wasn't well loved by everyone due to the story arc but I think that was mainly the US audience. It's probably my favourite season. Stick with it. I'm just about to start Season 6 tonight!

Glad I've found another fan! I found Season 1 really slow, but picked up mid-way through. Season 2 was fantastic, Season 3 pretty mixed. I hated a lot of the Ireland scenes, and especially the opening credits! I think the bad guy in Charming just wasn't very menacing, especially not after Weston and Zorbell. Just finished episode 8 of Season 4 now with Piney's death. I'm assuming the pace and tension will only increase now.
January 16, 201411 yr Yeah it does. Lots of interesting things await you! I won't say anymore as you'd hate me for it
January 19, 201411 yr Just finished Seasons 6. Literally minutes ago. Still utterly gobsmacked. Such a good show. As an aside, have you picked up on the Hamlet connection?
January 19, 201411 yr Author Just finished Seasons 6. Literally minutes ago. Still utterly gobsmacked. Such a good show. As an aside, have you picked up on the Hamlet connection? No I've not picked up on the connection. I'm up to episode 3 of Season 5 now. Such a good show, it was awful when Pope burned Tig's daughter alive!
January 19, 201411 yr Yeah. That scene is pretty grim. My girlfriend stopped watching the show after that although Gemma's rape nearly did that too. Creator Kurt Sutter (Otto) has said that it's all loosely based on Hamlet. Jax is the young Prince, haunted by his father (John) who was murderedy his brother (Clay) so he could marry the Kings wife (Gemma). There's more but don't look into it o much for risk of possible spoilers. I can barely wait for the (supposed) final season now. So much has to be resolved. There's also talk of a prequel show set around the formation of the club in the 60s. Not sure how I feel about that

There's also talk of a prequel show set around the formation of the club in the 60s. Not sure how I feel about that It's grim but effective. In TV the truly bad antagonists do horrible things. I was watching it thinking 'gee'! And then later on they pain him in a good light helping the community. The ambiguous characters are always the best. Ah that makes sense now, they sure do like calling Jax the Prince! I reckon I'll be up to speed in about two weeks, if not a little longer. Season 4 was my favourite so far, and 5 has started off strong. If it carries on this way with the dangerous stakes then I'm sure I'll love the rest of 5 & Season 6.
January 29, 201411 yr Author Got the first 5 series' off a mate so going to start watching these soon. ^_^ Do it! It's really really good. I've just finished episode 10 of Season 6. 3 more episodes to go. I'm usually pretty good with guessing how things are going to plan out, because sometimes you can see the plot devices a mile away, but pretty stumped this time!!

This is where it gets fun!
February 1, 201411 yr Author Hold on tight. This is where it gets fun! Finally finished it! Like to see how this is going to play out. Homeless lady must have some part to play, not sure about that part of the story at all.
November 6, 201410 yr Author Anyone else watching the final season? I've found it a bit messy and longwinded, however it's all getting very interesting now. I don't think Jury was the rat either. Excited to see what they do now, can't be too long before Gemma & Juice's secret come out.
December 13, 201410 yr I'm catching up on it now. I have 3 episodes to go and I'd definitely say the series is weaker without Tara. There's no conflict for Jax now and it's making it a bit less gripping. However it's still among the best shows around. I've just got to Abe's big reveal. Don't think Jax will believe him at first but I'm expecting a great finale.
December 13, 201410 yr Author I enjoyed the series finale. You're in for a treat, the peak of the season is the penultimate episode. Only problem with this series is the episodes are just far too long! Is nice to see the homeless lady finally explained too!
January 20, 201510 yr Currently watching this myself. Only on Season 1, but I'm really liking it. Some pretty horrible things have happened (the castration, tattoo removal etc..) but I somehow get the feeling they're not the worst of it! :lol: Just finished the episode where Jax finished off Tara's stalker. He was such a f***ing creep. Good riddance.

Good luck it's a great TV show, just make sure you stick with it when it goes a bit mad during the middle of Season 3.
February 9, 201510 yr I finished season 2 today. So gutting! Obviously I don't know if he's survived or not, yet, but I really hope Prospect has survived. He's my favourite character in this whole show! :lol:
