Sons of Anarchy Season 2 - DISCUSSION THREAD

[Darrell]

Jax and the Gang are back for season 2 of Sons of Anarchy on FX starting 9/8.

I cannot wait for the show to start back up, I know SmokeyJoe is anticipating it as well.

Who else is excited?

[bigloo]

Love this show... next to Rescue Me one of the best shows currently on TV.

[SmokeyJoe]

Can't wait!

According to www.imdb.com, Henry Rollins will be part of the show for Season 2 - not sure what his role will be.

Been watching the first season all Summer - after the Season Finale "The Revelator," I can hardly wait to see the fireworks between Jax and Clay... plus the fallout from the fight with Tig. Wow!!! :tu

[jkorp]

Can't wait. SOA, True Blood, and Weeds are the tops, IMO.

I tell you, this was way too long a break between seasons, but I'm sure we'll be rewarded for our wait.

[goalie204]

Never seen true blood, weeds used to be so good, now it's awful imo. Nancy should have been killed long ago, her antics are tired

So... are you a fan of SOA? :D

Where are you catching the season at, Joe? Hulu?

[akakirby]

Can't wait for this one as well!

[thetpi825]

One of my favorite shows. Can't wait for it to be back on. So do you guys think Jax goes back to the doctor lady?

[BengalMan]

You know I'm looking forward to this Darrell!

[icehog3]

Previews are now showing scenes from Season 2, and it looks great! :tu

[boom]

About time!!!! This show is great!!!!

[Ron1YY]

Where are you catching the season at, Joe? Hulu?

Torrents my brother!!!!!! Torrents..........

[Gophernut]

Can't wait for 9/8! SOA is absolutely one of my favorite shows. From the previews, it almost looks like Henry Rollins in a rival of SOA. Can't wait.

[Ranger_B]

Great show. My girlfriend and I can not wait for the season to start.

[Ken]

Sitting here watching the replay of Season 1 on FX. Waiting for S 2.

[Sauer Grapes]

Just a little over 2 weeks away...

[dunng]

Still waiting... :bh :bh

[BarneyBandMan]

I can't wait. Its my favorite show since The Sopranos. My wife bought me the 1st season DVD for my birthday. It shipped on Tuesday, the 18th but is not here yet. I hope it gets here by tomorrow. I'm planning a marathon watch, catch-up, and remember weekend.

I, too, amd looking forward to the possible Jax play on Clay.

Drea de Matteo has gone from desperate housewife to Desperate Housewife..:D

Congrats! (I know you got them today!) :tu

Have you looked at the video trailers for season 2? They look incredible!

Season 2 is gonna be wild and wooly... can't wait. :D

[Darrell]

I'm interested to see what happens between Tig and Jax in regards to Opie's wife.

On the trailer of FX's site their is a guy in a vest with duct tape on his mouth tied up, is that Tig? It kind of looked like him.

Paused the playback... not sure who it is, but Tig is the one who throws him to the ground. I think Opie kills the guy with a baseball bat!

One video makes it look like Opie's allegiance is siding with... CLAY!

Wow... just WOW!!! :D

Man, OH MAN. **** is about to get raw!!!!

This is going to be a crazy season. I really need to get the DVD's and catch up before it starts!

[SmokeyJoe]

Cigar shop sign is at the 24 second mark of the "Subculture" video. :tu

[Azpostal]

Yes the previews make this upcoming season look awesome!

[Darrell]

I just picked up SOA on DVD for $29.99 at Best Buy, I'll be catching up on Season 1 this week. :tu

I saw that the second time i watched it. My fav is Jemma giving old lady advice to Tara...meow

1st season DVD arrived Friday. Grilled chicken followed by the pilot (1st) episode that night, then 5 episodes, 3 cigars (DP Blue, Oliva V, and a RASS), and 3 glasses of Glenlivet 15-yr Oak Reserve (gifted from a SmokeyGuy) on Saturday. Had forgotten about Tigger Juice and bleach.:r

Final 6 episodes today. Ahhhh...:banger

[ChicagoWhiteSox]

I haven't seen any episodes yet, only commercials for it. It looks really badass and my type of show. Is it like any other tv series?

[Darrell]

It's a drama and no their is no other show like it, which is one reason why it's so awesome. It's very unique. :D

[icehog3]

Gotta agree, there is no show like it. Think the attitude and violence of "Deadwood" on bikes instead of horses, and that's about the closest I can think of.

[floydpink]

I was so psyched for season one and am still trying to like this series.

I am hoping this next season will hook me like Dexter and the Sopranos did.

For some reason, I never really got into it, yet.

As far as violent motorcycle stuff, there has been a cool series called Gangland, which is actually a documentary showing 1%'ers like the Angels, and Outlaws.

[SmokeyJoe]

Darrell was asking me what I thought about how SAMCRO might deal with Jax's knowing about Donna. The ads on the website show Jax saying to Clay, "Or what? You'll put a bullet in the back of MY head?"

Looks like they find some way to suppress it... at least to begin the season. You know it will have to boil over soon, though. They will be distracted by the white separatists initially, but it will have to fracture at some point.

They are making it sound like Opie will be siding with Clay - don't know if that is with or without the knowledge of what really happened with Donna. :confused:

They have some new videos up for Season 2 at the SOA website.

C'mon September 8th! :D

Yeah, initially the skin heads are going to be the center of attention. However, I think **** will hit the fan by the end of the season and they will leave us for a year waiting for season 3 to start.

Really? I must have missed something because I don't get that feeling at all. Opie and Jax are best buddies and Piney has to have told Opie what really went down.

[SmokeyJoe]

Really? I must have missed something because I don't get that feeling at all. Opie and Jax are best buddies and Piney has to have told Opie what really went down.

Not sure Piney did tell him... Piney says to Jax, "I am depending on you to make this right." If Opie knew, he would probably just walk up and shoot Clay! Don't think Opie's character would let him wait and see what was going to unfold... would take matters into his own hands. I could see Piney and Jax protecting Opie from that.

Also, in one of the videos at the SOA site, they are talking about "shifting allegiances" in some surprising ways... then they have Opie saying (ostensibly) to Clay... "I'm with you, no matter what." (2:44 mark of the "Exclusive Season Preview") Even if Opie isn't siding with Clay, they seem to be wanting to hint at that possibility.

Kurt Sutter is a genius! :D

[icehog3]

Darrell was asking me what I thought about how SAMCRO might deal with Jax's knowing about Donna. The ads on the website show Jax saying to Clay, "Or what? You'll put a bullet in the back of MY head?"



Ah...I was thinking that statement had to do with Jax's Dad.....now I see what it might really mean, Joe.

[Darrell]

Ah...I was thinking that statement had to do with Jax's Dad.....now I see what it might really mean, Joe.

I think he was referring to Clay having Tig put a bullet in Donna's head thinking it was Opie. I do however think it could possibly be in reference to Jax's dad.

[SmokeyJoe]

I think he was referring to Clay having Tig put a bullet in Donna's head thinking it was Opie. I do however think it could possibly be in reference to Jax's dad.

They have pretty well established that John Teller died several days after being hit by a truck. Now... he could be using the "bullet" in a generic sense - as if he was thinking about being taken out like we assume his father was...

But I don't think Jax has gone there yet... don't think he is questioning his dad's death - yet. Will probably happen by end of this season as a lead in to year 3. Sutter does make reference to the fact that Jax is "Hamlet" to Clay's "King Claudius."

I did find it interesting to find out that:
According to an interview with Kurt Sutter, the pilot episode was entirely shot with actor Scott Glenn in the role of Clay Morrow. After deciding to go in a different direction with the character, the role was re-cast with Ron Perlman and Clay's scenes were re-shot.

Wow...it would be cool to see those Scott Glenn scenes...maybe youtube someday?

[SmokeyJoe]

Would LOVE to see how Scott Glenn interpreted the character of Clay. Don't get me wrong, though... I'm a big fan of Perlman! :tu

Me too, but I would love to see others' interpretations of many roles. Like watching Buddy Ebsen at the Tin Man. ;) :r

Does anyone have any objections to me asking Tom to prune this thread when Season 2 actually starts?

(That means delete all of the other posts aside from my original so we can have a "clean" 2nd season discussion.) :D

Seems I remember being a member of another cigar board... they had LOTS of posts disappear. Even entire threads went missing! :D

[dogface_313]

should be a good season. can't wait.

[Sr Mike]

I too am anxious, satellite has been playing season 1 all summer. Looks like they have a lot in store for us. Fantastic cast, they all do an incredible job, of course they have to with Katey Sagal performing as great as she is.

[hornitosmonster]

I played poker with Charlie Hunnam for about an 1 hour or so. It was at Taser's Hold'Em for Heroes Poker Tournament. Not sure if he will be at this year tournament.

Maybe rename this thread to "Pre-season discussion thread" and start a new one for Tuesday? :2

Not that I don't like prunes:D

[Darrell]

I finished watching Season 1 last night, man I love this show. I can't wait for Tuesday. I've set it on BOTH of my DVR's. :tu

It's really going to be interesting to see where this goes. I know Piney def. has Jax back, but I don't know who else might. I'd hope Opie, but it's hard to say based off the previews for Season 2.

[Darrell]

Tomorrow is the night!

I. Am. ****ing. Stoked.

:D

[Darrell]

Tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SmokeyJoe]

Tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got my countdown clock going... :D

I feel like "Rain Man" waiting for Wapner. :r

[trader1974]

Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock...is this a long day or what?

[icehog3]

Getting off work early to watch live! :D

[Darrell]

I don't think I've anticipated a show as much as I am SOA Season 2.

Not even The Shield had me this excited.

[Darrell]

I've updated my wallpaper accordingly.

Just checked into a Fairfield Inn in Cleveland, OH. They have full cable, including FX. Let's just say they earned my future business! Can't wait till 10pm!

[dogface_313]

wow! Good first episode, but that ending was messed up!

[GKitty]

Just finished the first episode of season 2.

HOLY @#(*!!!!!! People are going to die. Lots of them.

This season is going to kick so much a$$.

I'll shut up until everyone's had a chance to watch.

[BengalMan]

Ok, I think I'm more amped after watching this seasons preview than I was to watch tonights episode. Holy &*^$ Gonna be an INSANE season.

[BarneyBandMan]

Holy Shite................:O

[Ranger_B]

It is going to be non stop. Can not wait to see who goes first.

[SonsofClubDeck]

Holy Shite................:O


Like father, like son.

[SmokeyJoe]

Seems they have kicked it up a couple of notches!

Jax... Opie... what happened to Gemma?!?!

Keep it coming! :wo

[trader1974]

Yeehaw! It's on like Donkey Kong!:banger

[Swampfox21]

oh this is gonna be one heck of a season!

[icehog3]

Wow....just Wow.

[huero71]

Damn. They did more than pick up where they left off... :banger

[Sr Mike]

Wow!! What a way to start the season, people are going to get hurt.

[Darrell]

The ending, wow. Those guys have no idea the hell storm they just unleashed on themselves.

[trader1974]

So which Camacho sticks were those?

[Darrell]

Alright, so everyone should have watched it now. So we can get into DEEP discussion.

The Neo Nazi guys seem to be trying really hard to get into bed with Hale, based off the previews. It sounds like they want Hale to let them deal drugs in Charming and somehow run off SAMCRO?

I am interested in a little back story of the Neo Nazi "boss" in the suit. I hope Tig does shoot him. :D

And man, oh man. They raped Gemma? They are SO ****ed. As soon as Clay finds out, they are going to **** those guys up beyond repair.

Discuss? :D

I think Hale might just end up being more of an ally than an enemy by the end of it all.

I don't think we've seen the last of the Gemma saga. ;)

[Darrell]

I think Hale might just end up being more of an ally than an enemy by the end of it all.

I don't think we've seen the last of the Gemma saga. ;)

Yeah, though he won't be anywhere near the ally that ole Chief Wayne Unser has been. I have a feeling that Unser is going to end up sticking around longer than the next 2 months. I cannot see them canning him, just yet.

Gemma is the Queen of SAMCRO and I think that Clay is going to send a big message after he finds out, I don't think that they will bother her again.

True dat regarding Unser V. Hale.

I know Clay is going to send a message, but it might just be the beginning of the World's most violent "chess game".

[SmokeyJoe]

The thing with Jax protecting Opie has trouble written all over it.

I could see Opie feeling betrayed by Jax when he finds out the truth and still aligning with Clay... forgive Clay because he would sort of understand the "why" of it... he knows Clay is a ruthless bastard. But Jax? His best friend knowing the truth and keeping it from him - could be the direction Kurt Sutter takes it.

I agree... I can see Hale deciding better to deal with "the devil you know" than the Dirty White Boys.

Seems like Darby may resent these new guys as well.

What an amazing show! :tu

[icehog3]

I think your assessment of the Opie situation might be right on, Joe. :)

[SmokeyJoe]

Went by JRs for a smoke today... had a Camacho in honor of Clay. :D

First one in a while... it was OK, but I preferred the Cain I had after. :tu

[Aldebaran]

It was nice to see Henry Rollins expanding on his acting. I don't really like the guy but he has potential to be a good actor.

The ending though was shocking. I hope it isnt just cleaned up next episode and that be that.

[Darrell]

It's funny that he brought him Camacho, Ron Perlman in an interview says he really enjoys Nicaraguan tobacco and in a paparazzi photo he is smoking a Joya De Nicaragua.

[goalie204]

it was good.

[drob]

Heads are gonna roll, now.

[Mark C]

It's funny that he brought him Camacho, Ron Perlman in an interview says he really enjoys Nicaraguan tobacco and in a paparazzi photo he is smoking a Joya De Nicaragua.

Just read an article/interview with him in an old copy of Smoke, he said the JdN is one of his current favorites, don't think Camacho was mentioned.

[Sr Mike]

It will be quite the scene when Gemma finds the blonde chick that whacked and delivered her.

[BarneyBandMan]

The more I think about it and the more I think of the upcoming previews:

Gemma--looking like maybe she and Unser have a talk and we see her car ramming the back of a rig (?maybe). I'm wondering--you know many sects see the raping of one of their women as making her untouchable/outcast--as if maybe she might think that Clay would dismiss her. I remember him telling her that he couldn't make it without her in this episode. I don't know. Maybe she has those kind of thoughts and wants to cover it up to keep that from happening? Just a thought.

Or maybe she wants it covered up to keep the club from entering into a certain Armageddon that would leave the club broken and Jax never able to take over?

Or maybe I'm just thinking too much--happens often..:r

Regardless--brilliant first episode

[Darrell]

Is it Tuesday yet?

[fissure]

Nope, only monday. Finally got finished with season 1 and watched the 1st episode of season 2 last night. Can't wait for tomorrow:banger:banger

Dude! You must be ready to buy a harley and start your own 1% MC.

"Sons of Stogies" has a nice ring to it. :D

Only 21 hours and 45 minutes... :D

Watching "Albification" right now... love the Amazon on-demand! :tu

[Batman]

Tonight should be great. Hard to tell if Gemma is going to hide what happened or not.

[icehog3]

Not much longer now....if episode #2 is half as crazy as #1 it will be a good night.

[trader1974]

Can't wait to see what happens tonight!:banger

I am so excited for tonight, I feel like a kid waiting for Santa to come.

I wonder what kind of intel, Juice is going to dig up on the Skin heads?

[icehog3]

Trying to decide what to light up when I get home and click on the TiVo.

[goalie204]

damn, my cable company doesn't have fx, guess i'll download it again

[BengalMan]

Ok, I need the SAMCRO shirt that Jax wore into the prison, RIGHT NOW. lol.

[itsme_timd]

Ok, I need the SAMCRO shirt that Jax wore into the prison, RIGHT NOW. lol.

HA! I thought that was pretty awesome as well.

I'm new to this show in Season 2 (I need to hit up iTunes and get Season 1) but this is one of the best shows I've seen in a long time.

I am surprised at what FX is getting away with as far as violence and language wise...

[icehog3]

"Canseco does Georgie". :r

[Sr Mike]

"Canseco does Georgie". :r

ROFLMAO :r:r

Last night was good!

[Scothew]

I'm new to teh show as of this season as well and so far I am loving it.

Can't wait to see next week.. meth labs..... smelly places that like to go BOOM! mmmmmm good times :)

[Darrell]

Good episode last night. Not quite as exciting as the Season 2 premier, but good.

I think we are in for some serious action next week.

You can def. see that Jax and Clay's bond is wearing thin. I agree that what Jax did to that Mayan was for the good of the club. If that "tag" Opie left on that dead Mayan had stayed than a war in charming would have been inevitable.

and the skin head boss is getting in bed with the Mayans. I don't think that is going to work out as well as both parties hope. Oh well. :D

[Scothew]

I think Charming is gonna get a war regardless with the skin heads in town, cause you know somehow what happened to Gemma is gonna get out. Too many people know at least a little bit.

For some reason I see the assistant deputy cheif or whatever aligning with samcro with this problem the skin heads are starting.

[goalie204]

i think what happened to gemma will somehow get out through clay/gemma themselves, because you see them doing it a lot, and gemma sure aint gunna wanna do it, and clay is gunna be like wtf

[Darrell]

he assistant deputy cheif or whatever aligning with samcro with this problem the skin heads are starting.

Deputy Chief David Hale. :D

and I agree, I believe SmokeyJoe said it's easier to deal with the devil you know. I think it's going to be a rough alliance, but necessary. SAMCRO loves Charming and keeps it safe, Hale loves charming. They BOTH don't love smack, blow, etc. in Charming. :2

[icehog3]

A liitle blow never hurt SAMCRO.....hey, it's a job.

[Scothew]

Deputy Chief David Hale. :D

Thanks, still learning the names :)

I DVR all of my shows so I just happened to catch up on the SOA show tonight.....

Season 2 has started off quite nice! Excellent guest stars so far as well. Got my wife hooked on it and it's killing her that she can't get any work done! :banger

Jemma was the door knob in that last one! :bx

[icehog3]

Last season there was an incredible acoustic version of CCR's "Fortunate Son" on one of the episodes....I have been looking for it for months, and just found it on the performer's website...with a free download. In case anyone is interested:

I think the skinheads will take it up a notch, maybe whack the nanny. I don't remember her geting much, if any time on screen last year, but she seems to be a more prominent secondary character this season... build up to her murder maybe?

[Scothew]

Think they would do it and try to pin on SAMCRO?

[Darrell]

Think they would do it and try to pin on SAMCRO?

That seems like a reasonable plot against SAMCRO, but not likely to stick.

[SmokeyJoe]

Just a little over 9 1/2 hours! :tu

I don't think they will whack the nanny... I expect her to have more interaction with Gemma as this plays out. My :2 .

[Scothew]

Ok, I need the SAMCRO shirt that Jax wore into the prison, RIGHT NOW. lol.

Here ya go :)

Got my cigar picked out, just need to finish the night at work, and fire up the cigar and the TiVo.

[GKitty]

SOA or Free Tickets to a hockey game!?!?!

Is it sad that it was a hard decision? :)

I'll catch up at first opportunity.

Hockey! You can always see SOA on TiVo Crystal...good choice! :tu

[GKitty]

Hockey + SOA = Uber-Happy Crystal!! :banger

I've got to say, part of me wishes Tara had taken a more direct approach. I'm thinking skateboard style ala Gemma in Season 1. (Maybe I just had too much hockey though.)

I'm a lil disappointed in Hale.

Is everyone up to speed? Can we get into this yet?!?

[SmokeyJoe]

Will Bobby have to deal with any repercussions???

Are Tig and Bobby warming up to Jax?

I mean, Hale... really!?

Favorite line... "Get outa my face." :tu

[icehog3]

I gotta get invited to a "wrap party". ;)

[Sr Mike]

I too want to know if Bobby is putting a girl before the club? Not a good idea.

[Scothew]

I certainly had more expectations out of Hale.

Im guessing theres alot more with bobby and the video producing chick in S1 that i've missed. I really need to pick it up and watch it.

[Darrell]

This was a good episode and Bobby messing with Otto's Old Lady is a BIG NO NO in an MC. I wonder how much money is owed to the club? He said she had been shorting them for 6 years!

Also, Hale?....really buddy? I thought you were better than that. I'm disappointed in Hale.

Next week looks to be a gnarly episode. Each week this show impresses me! :tu :tu

[icehog3]

Hale is definitely a disappointment at this stage, and his character should be smart enough to know that the fire means he has been busted.

[Darrell]

Hale is definitely a disappointment at this stage, and his character should be smart enough to know that the fire means he has been busted.

Hale has been a straight shooter from day one.

He does not have to love SAMCRO, but he has to realize that as it was said before it's better to deal with the devil you know.

He has NO idea what those skin heads are capable of, they could back door him and screw his chance at being Chief -- if he's not careful. Who knows what kind of dirt they're gathering against him with this whole crank lab ordeal.

Agreed...plus, he has to be smart enough to know it wasn't an accident in the meth house, that SAMCRO knows he is covering up for the White Hate.

[itsme_timd]

Yep, I haven't enjoyed a TV show this much in years, I'm addicted here!

This was a good episode and Bobby messing with Otto's Old Lady is a BIG NO NO in an MC.

Did you hear the comment she made about "the prison clause"? What's that about???

Agreed...plus, he has to be smart enough to know it wasn't an accident in the meth house, that SAMCRO knows he is covering up for the White Hate.

Yeah, he definitely knows it was no accident. This could be good though, now he knows that if he doesn't take care of the problems that SAMCRO will and he won't be able to let these things slide.

Plus, the chief knew that Hale was supposed to take care of the issue and Hale told him he didn't know anything about it.

Is it Tuesday yet???

[Darrell]

Agreed...plus, he has to be smart enough to know it wasn't an accident in the meth house, that SAMCRO knows he is covering up for the White Hate.

So does Unser. While Unser might be a dirty "old Cop", he's still Chief and if he thinks that Hale is in bed with the skin heads then **** is going to get ugly and quick.

I have to agree. :D

[Darrell]

4 days, 23 hours, 29 mins, 36 seconds until the next episode.

But whose counting? :r

[goalie204]

I thought when Tig walked in he heard Jemma talking about what happned, but guess not

I'm not positive he didn't hear it....

I am fairly certain he heard and that will likely come out later.

If we KNOW Tig as a character, he heard. The guy always puts his :2 into everything so you can bet as much as he talks, he listens twice as much to what is going on.

[itsme_timd]

OH YEAH! I forgot about that! I wondered the same thing... :confused:

didn't read any posts, just turned Wednesday's episode on. Thank you DVR

[dogface_313]

awesome episode. This is my favorite show!

Tonight :)

I'm going to stay up past my bedtime and watch it tonight.

Probably won't be able to watch until tomorrow night on TiVo, so I will have to avoid this thread tonight to miss any spoilers.

Same, except ill probably get up early and watch it tomorrow morning before work.

[dogface_313]

Another Great episode. 0450 is going to come pretty quick.

[slyder]

awsome episode!! starting to get real good.

[itsme_timd]

I thought this one was a little less stellar than the others so far. But, still a good episode.

I'm curious to see what happens between Jax and Clay, and we know the stuff with Gemma will have to be 'addressed' soon one way or another.

Preview for next week look good!

[SmokeyJoe]

I thought this one was a little less stellar than the others so far. But, still a good episode...

I really liked this one! Enjoyed the partial back story on Unser's history with Gemma... the Bounty Hunters and how they were dealt with was awesome... "neuticles" ;)... the tension between Jax and Opie is growing... Clay's threat...

This one had it all. :tu

(Hope it wasn't too much info for you, Tom.) :D

[itsme_timd]

"neuticles" ;)...

HAHAHA! That was funny... :D

I have a feeling Unser may be getting his hands dirty real soon, seems to have an affinity for Gemma.

[Scothew]

I agree on Unser. Im surprised Gemma didnt pull the trig.

[SmokeyJoe]

Unser IS dirty already... on the take. Him and Gemma? I don't see that at all... he is a father-figure for her. I would be very surprised, but nothing is off the table with this show. :D

I could see him go a little vigilante on the white separatists. Will be interesting to see how that all plays out. :ss

Not saying love interest, more like you said, a father figure. He is very protective of her. Could see him doing more that just taking money, maybe a life.

[SmokeyJoe]

Not saying love interest, more like you said, a father figure. He is very protective of her. Could see him doing more that just taking money, maybe a life.

Gotcha! I can see them setting that up... feeling like his life is over anyway with the cancer battle. I think his cancer is further along than he is letting on. Spending a lot of time at the hospital and at the chapel. Wonder why we never get to see his wife, Della?

And what about the previews for next week? Kurt Sutter's character Big Otto gets attacked in prison. Looks like they mess him up pretty good!

[GKitty]

I'm intrigued by Piney's bold move in instigating the rescue. Something tells me his support is going to factor in later in this whole Jax vs Clay storyline.

Have I mentioned lately I love Gemma? Because I do. ( She also reminds me why I don't carry a gun. I hate it when people honk at me. :) ) Her last minute change of heart seems so out of character. Where is the fierceness from last season?

Not as explosive as previous episodes, but there seems to be a lot of character and plot building going on. I see big things coming.

[Darrell]

You know what I could see in regards to last weeks episode?

I can see Unser passing and Hale thinking that HE is next in line for Chief [but due to his dirty dealing with the Skinheads] they end up bringing an outsider into Charming to be Chief.

Does the new Chief like SAMRCO? Does he hate SAMCRO? Does he like Hale?

So many questions....

As for this week. It was an awesome episode. It had all the great aspects of a fine story. I did not need [boom boom] and [pew pew] the writers did a top notch job on the story and thinks are def. getting interesting!

We all know Jax won't get killed and neither will Clay.

Faction war maybe?

OK, I'm done. :D

[goalie204]

good ep

No, Joe..watched it before I read the thread! :r

Clay V.s Jax.....just "wow".

[BarneyBandMan]

I think they played the Gemma "ridin' dirty" scene in the porto very well. She wants Weston dead, and was willing to take her chances. But hearing him on the phone with his kid pushed her mommy button and she couldn't do it. I think maybe they will write in a way for Clay or Jax to find out about the "incident" in a unique kind of way and Weston will get his.

Or not--so far the writers have continued to surprise me in just how twisted they can be. And I do like that. :D

[Darrell]

It's Tuesday!! :wo :wo :wo :wo :wo

[av8tor152d]

Have to say I was bored this week bought season one, watched it then caught up on season two with on demand, now Tuesday cant get here fast enough. Great show !

First TV series since Sapranos to actually catch my attention.

[SkinsFanLarry]

What bothers me about last weeks episode is that Opie is now taking sides with Clay....against Jax.

What's gonna happen when he finds out Clay ordered the hit that resulted in his wife's death.

[av8tor152d]

I can see Clay putting the "but Jax knew this happened and did not tell you" spin on it when the poop hits the fan

[gorob23]

:r <--me

why :confused:

Because I can

I really don't need any other reason :ss

Rob :tpd:

[GKitty]

"The hell is it with you and bustin' chick's noses?!" :r

"Get down off your high horse."

Great one-liners this week.

I feel that Unser sharing the secret he's been entrusted with is ultimately going to be how that volatile piece of information gets out.

[icehog3]

It just keeps rampin' up...It's gonna be a bloodbath. :r

[itsme_timd]

I feel that Unser sharing the secret he's been entrusted with is ultimately going to be how that volatile piece of information gets out.

+1, maybe not intentionally but I thought that, too.

Anyone else notice how Hale's brother's (Jacob?) cigar was split 1/3 up the side when he was lighting it in the cigar shop? :D

[icehog3]

I sure did...probably reshot the scene until the cigar busted wide open.

[Addiction]

I watch this show every week as well, but can't really invest in it. Too many people do too many things I just don't buy into to really throw my support behidn it.

[Sr Mike]

I knew that van was going to be a problem, but I had guessed it the other way around as Samcro's bit of retaliation. Good way to push a war into overdrive!

[Starchild]

I've caught the last three episodes, and I'm hooked. I need to go back and watch season 1 to fill in some of the blanks. The casting is spot on!

[Scothew]

At first I didnt like Deputy Hale but now I think since Unser shared the secret, it appears he's going towards whats best for teh town which is samcro. I got a feeling after the preview for next week, its gonna non stop action

[BarneyBandMan]

Good episode last night. Already looking forward to next week!

[drob]

Jax is one man down, now, so looks like Clay will have his way at retaliation.

[SkinsFanLarry]

I think the "wildcard" in this is Darby....I know he's a White Supremist and Meth Dealer but he has always had a soft spot for Gemma.

He doesn't like AJ (Henry Rollins) and I think he will turn on him if he finds out what he did to Gemma.

Any thoughts?

[GKitty]

ooooooo.... Good point, Larry!

I hadn't even really given Darby a second thought this season. He's been pretty much in the background.

Anyone remember the phone call Zoebell made to Alvarez?

Is it possible that the different factions are going to tear the supremacists apart from the inside when the Sons make their move?

[goalie204]

god damn that was a good episode

[Darrell]

I am really hoping Chibs pulled through, but I have a feeling he did not.

Did anyone see the trailer for next week? The last scene is Clay in the Church with his gun pointed at Zobelle.

We all know Zobelle isn't going to die just yet, but something is going to happen.

I also noticed the cigar splitting, he must get his stock from Thompson's. :r

The writing is top notch and this show constantly amazes me.

[icehog3]

I am really hoping Chibs pulled through, but I have a feeling he did not.



I am hoping the line in the trailer "They almost killed 2 of our guys..." means he will make it, but that could be mean they were only successful once. :(

[Scothew]

Im with you Tom. I really hope his character makes it. I really like him as an actor in stuff like this.

[BarneyBandMan]

Im with you Tom. I really hope his character makes it. I really like him as an actor in stuff like this.

Me too. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for him since his bride was "prima noctaed" in BraveHeart. He did get revenge later, though. I hope he gets some on SoA, too.

And I also think Henry Rollins is great as Weston. He's so intense in most everything I've seen him do, and this character looks like he's one tobacco beetle from going over the edge.

[av8tor152d]

I am really hoping Chibs pulled through, but I have a feeling he did not.



If he doesn't pull through or even if he does, Isn't his daddy a member of a certain Irish faction that likes blowing things up ?

[dogface_313]

That would be a really cool twist.

Comment above about Darby not knowing what happened to Gemma, not to sure about that. He knows.

[RichardW]

I didn't catch the final episode of Season 1 until last week. Comcast On Demand has Episode 4 5 and 6 -- I couldn't resist jumping in and watching Episode 4 (Eureka) -- now I'm caught in the middle. I cannot wait until this comes out on DVD.

Anyone got copies of the first 3 episodes??

[SmokeyJoe]

If he doesn't pull through or even if he does, Isn't his daddy a member of a certain Irish faction that likes blowing things up ?

Not sure I picked that up... Chibs is a Scottsman. He is not related to the Irish gun runners that I was able to discern. Did I miss something? :confused:

[gorob23]

I am hoping

I bet you are :r

If I recall correctly when they were picking up the handguns from them to deliver, The episode with the bounty hunters and hotel jail break, The supplier mentions something to Chibs about his father or friends coming to the states.

I could be wrong as well. Maybe some more light will be shed on the subject tonight.

Either way Joe I am thinking they awoke the sleeping dragon setting the bomb off on Samcrow turf. Not to mention Jax is stuck in a pickle now trying to take time going up against these smucks.

[icehog3]

Not going to be able to see this week's episode until llate Wednesday as I have O.T. tonight....looks like I will be avoiding this thread until Thursday. ;)

Enjoy it, Gents!~

The damn cable is on the fritz :mad:

The digital box is down, but I'm getting a snowy picture in the garage. Oh, well. At least I get to smoke a stogie :ss

[av8tor152d]

OH and the plot thickens even more!

[GKitty]

OMG.. everybody get caught up!!

I can't wait for this week's discussion.

[av8tor152d]

Or we could just start the discussion now Crystal. lol

[WyGuy]

wish i got FX

Might want to check out fancast.com, that's where I watch it as I don't have FX either.

[Gonesledn]

is it me, or was there a ton of friggin comercials tonight?

[Scothew]

Good episode.

[GKitty]

Or we could just start the discussion now Crystal. lol

I'm usually part of the first wave done because I do have FX, but I don't DVR. I try to wait, because I'll throw some spoilers out there and I don't want to catch the guys checking in to say "just sitting down to watch".

That being said...

WTF are the Irish doing with Zobelle?!?!? And it doesn't sound like a recent acquiantance. Holy double cross, batman!! Guess we know why the young one was checking out "all the noise" at the garage.

And how about Hale? I'm so proud. Putting the squeeze on that psycho-blonde. I feel like he's going to end up playing a pretty big part in the whole Jax Vs. Clay thing.

Gemma and Tara doing a little female bonding over handguns and ****stars. Freakin awesome!!!! :D I think things got real for Tara this week and I'm glad to see her step up to it instead of run from it. Hope she can hang in there.

Alright, I will say that as much as I hate Zobelle, he's a clever clever bastard. The whole bait and switch routine was freaking brilliant!! *golf clap* for the bad guys this week. I just hope it comes back to bite them in the ass next week.

[Starchild]

Great episode! Zobelle knows exactly what they will do, and has been one step ahead of SAMCRO the whole time. This is obviously not his first rodeo.

Things will get very interesting in jail next week.

[Darrell]

Holeee ****. What are the Irish doing in bed with Zobelle?

and Hale did a good job, I am proud of him as well.

I think Jax was smart to keep Clay from shooting Zobelle and Jax has been right all along about holding off on retaliating. He said if they went in "we are all going to jail".

I think Jail is going to be the driving factor in either dividing SAMCRO into factions, or them looking past their differences and moving ahead.

Great episode. Just great.

[Darrell]

Also when Clay was tearing up the shop did anyone notice the Illusione boxes on the shelves??? :D

[gorob23]

Dang it Rob! :mad: :r

no shots fired by samcro, only by rolllins hmmm

[Darrell]

no shots fired by samcro, only by rolllins hmmm

I think this small detail might be the one that gets SAMCRO out of jail. If you notice right before Clay took aim at Zobelle the camera panned over to the security camera which was catching the action.

Thoughts?

At worst in real life (which the show is obviously not) they could get a little time for possession of automatic weapons as felons. However, seeing as this is T.V. they will likely all just walk.

[icehog3]

Wow...just wow. :)

Great episode, I think the prison scenario is gonna take things to a whole new level.

[LasciviousXXX]

It was an awesome episode IMO. Can't wait to see how the handle all the Prison "yard" politics. Great show!

[Sr Mike]

The Irish with Zobelle, business is business. The security camera is probably not going to show much other than SAMCRO rushing in on their little party, the League may try to use that against them.

Anyone else hear the line "not again!" as SAMCRO raided the party? I do not have DVR to go back and play it again, but could have sworn I heard that.

[Mark C]

At worst in real life (which the show is obviously not) they could get a little time for possession of automatic weapons as felons. However, seeing as this is T.V. they will likely all just walk.

I don't know, they've been talking about the ATF being on them like white on rice every episode this season. Getting busted with all that firepower ought to be more than a slap on the wrist. Especially if they start talking about RICO charges again... Maybe the bulk of this season plays out in prison?

The Irish with Zobelle, business is business.

No honor among thieves right? The Irish are lookin' out for themselves. Zobelle's got the upper hand, more money, and fewer problems and they know it.

Did y'all catch the last clip in the previews where it looks like Clay and Jax about to fight it out in a cell? Clay's likely going to say they wouldn't be in jail if Jax and Hale didn't call in the sheriffs, but Jax will say they wouldn't be in jail if Clay let the sheriffs bring in Zobelle.

[gvarsity]

finally caught up so I can participate in this thread. I'm loving the show but I actually was a little disappointed in the whole going to jail thing. One of the things I like about the show is that for the most part these guys are smart and that was just stupid. More because they were just getting played/set up by Zobelle than that they just went ahead to get revenge in a reckless way. I am looking forward to the battle in the prison both between sam crow and the ab and clay and jax. The preview had a ultimate fighting kind of feel to it. As for the reality of going to jail for a long time or not for running around with illegal weapons I'll just let suspension of disbelief cover whatever interesting way they use to get them out of trouble.

[Sauer Grapes]

I love this show so much that I decided to join a motorcycle gang. I'm on my way out to SoCal right now to see which club will take me. Here is a picture from the trip.
