Well, I've recently finished watching Season 1 of this show. I hadn't ever watched it before, so I ordered the DVDS on Netflix. I have to say I enjoyed the first season. Alot of good characters and a great story as well. I've got seasons 2 through 6 on my list still, so it will take a while to finish it. Anyone else a fan of the show? Don't spoil what happens later because I like being surprised.

Well, just finished season 2 of the show. The ending with Jax's baby boy being taken was heartbreaking. I hope he finds that guy and messes him up good!! Hope he gets his son back as well. Don't tell me what happens.

Great show indeed. I'm a bit behind though. Still have to start watching season 5. If you liked season 1 & 2 you surely will like season 3 as well.

Thankfully FX was invented. The Shield preceded Sons of Anarchy. Kurt Sutter was a co-writer on that show. Not sure why nobody calls this out, but if it wasn't for the Shield, there wouldn't be a Sons of Anarchy.

Anyway, this is one of the best shows ever made. They've said that there are shades of Hamlet in the writing. I've watched the after show the past few weeks with Kurt and members of the cast, after they got rid of the moron that moderated the show the week Mark Boone Junior was on. To say these characters have impacted these actors would be an understatement.

I'm just glad that there was a channel around that was brave enough to broadcast this material. There are so many of us out there that are drawn to the character development / drama that these shows demand. I can't wait to see what show he comes up with next.

This season has been the most violent season of television of any show I have ever seen.....great show but the violence has become cartoonish and over the top

The Shield is another one I haven't watched yet. Maybe I'll start that one next.

Just finished season 3 of Sons. I definitely didn't expect the ending it got. Hard to believe that the whole club knew about Jax's deal with Stahl. I'm glad that Stahl was killed in the end. She deserved it!!

Very good show. A few of the actors from that appear in SOA.

What an ending to this show. Never really grasped the Shakespearean aspect of the show until now. Guess I'm slow on the uptake.

Though the final 2 episodes were the best TV I've ever watched. Over the decades, I think it was better than the ending of any of my favorite shows. Including Mash, The Sopranos', and even The Shield, which I thought wasn't possible to top.

Brilliant casting & writing led to this denouement, glad I was able to watch this wonderful show.

i was a bit letdown by the finale. i did however pick up early on the Shakespearean aspects of the show. i saw a writeup early on call it "hamlet on harley's"

I've watched SONS since day one, always loved the show, all the mass shootings during the last season made it hard to believe. Other than that I have no complaints, fantastic finale, best ending of a show I have ever seen. Can't wait for the next show Kurt is involved in.

I just finished the first 4 episodes of season 4. Again, real good so far. They didn't waste any time getting back into their routine. Glad they got those Russians who hurt Jax in the prison.

I've been there since episode #1 also. To me the excessive killings in the last season and even the one before, dragged down the writing quality. I 'm ok with the finale, but would have rather seen Jax leave the journal in the care of someone instead of destroying it altogether.
