While I do somewhat like SOA, and have been a fan since S1E1, I'm happiest that I'm that I'm that much closer to Justified S4.

The whole RPG, land-mine, automatic weapon, WWIII shootout was pretty much the last straw for me. That shite was ridiculous... not even remotely plausible.

I agree. Over the top but I can overlook it because I enjoy the storyline and characters so much. It has taken an odd and not so good turn but hopefully this season hits the ground running and brings back the SOA that I love.

I had a meniscus repair done last Friday. I have been rewatching Breaking Bad and SOA non stop on Netflix. Almost done with both season 3s.

The Thing with the CIA/Cartel seemed chintzy too.

It was like the writers backed themselves into a corner and had to invent a completely nutty way of getting SAMCRO out of another jam.

I don't see how a CIA agent would be allowed to summarily execute people on American soil.

I kind of figure it to be like the Sunshine Bridge: one team writes the first half and the other writes the second. They meet in the middle only to realize that they are off my 100 yards. Throw together some shite to make it work and continue to the end.

It may be a stretch but I don't see the show continuing down the same road (for the best).

I'm pretty sure Sutter said at the most there'll be two seasons after this one. And that's at the most (because they've already signed on for a 6th).

Well with only 2 seasons left I don't know how you would construct a plausible ending. This show likes to drag storylines on for too long.

Either Jax makes a bold move to take the club legit and dies or Clay makes an bold move to re-take the club... and dies.

That is about the only way I see it going.

I wasn't really talking about the ending but you are correct. There are only 2 clear endings that I see, both you mentioned. I was talking about the stupid shite at the end of last season (land mines, CIA druglords, ect). I believe and hope that we have seen the end of this crap. It almost seemed like I was watching a budget movie on the sci fi channel.

Since it's based on Hamlet, you have your answer.

I'm not as excited about this season as I have been the past 4, but it's still one of the better shows on TV, especially right now.

But after reading everyone's opinions in this thread, I tend to agree with almost everything that's been said, good and bad.

I've been thinking of getting into this show. I have heard alot of people talk about it and a few of my friends looked at me funny when I mentioned I don't watch it. What is the show's premise?

Agreed. How many episodes did it take to finally get Abel once they were in Belfast? That drug out forever. Last season was not the best but I think this season will be better.
