Re: Sons of Anarchy

Sutter has wanted to do this angle for a while but never had it worked out to fit until now. It's his take on tackling head-on the propensity for TV shows to ignore the real affects of what these guys do as a whole versus just the affects on them and their families. Same situation as Breaking Bad. Very little exposition focuses on how WW's meth affects the community. Its all focused on his life and his environment.

I thought Sutter's mechnaism for delving into it was a little over the top but that's what SOA is about. All thse crazy situations of a life-style none of us can really relate to and how these somewhat everyday type of people have adapted or are adapting to it. Plus it sets up how the show ends I believe is what eh has said.

Yeah just to add... the club runs guns. To never address the possible consequences of it would be a disservice. Sure a school shooting is over the top, but hey, it's TV. I guess some people would rather sweep issues like this under the rug and pretend they don't exist.

On a side note can someone please put Otto out of his misery already. It's getting ridiculous what this guy has gone through.

I feel kinda bad for him and then I remember he did set up Tara. Not that I think he deserves what he's getting. He just stabbed the wrong nurse that day.
