There goes the neighborhood!

Will they be starting a sewing circle and calling themselves the Sons of Mild Disorder?

How can they be sons of anarchy? They belong to an organization with rules, regulations and a form of a governmental body in which they elect club officers....ironic, no?
And IMO the show sucks. A night time dope(soap) opera.

From the commercials, I don't see the appeal.  Also, looks like it doesn't help our reputation as riders.

You had better stick with Dancing With The Stars.

And besides, they're the SONS of anarchy. Who listens to their parents these days?

I hear they will be running the re election bid for an un named president, they'll be busy visiting neighborhoods hanging curtains and cooking up some tasty meals 8)
They gave up knitting, seems they were worried the sharp pointing things may be dangerous :o

It's so far from real I seriously doubt they hurt our reputation, it is a form of entertainment and they do have some interesting characters, which for me make it worth space on the DVR.

Isnt that porn?  I would never waste space on that!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not sure its that unrealistic.  Their are a couple of gangs in this area.......definitely some illegal stuff going on.  I work with a guy who's pledging one of the more tame groups....even his group is on the cops' list.  The other two, according to him, are defintely involved in some illegal "stuff".  I honestly didn't know that this kind of crud still happened.  Anyway I am no means an expert on the subject, I guess I just prefer good over evil........ :popcorn:

No doubt there are some illegal activities, but the depth this show goes?  Watch it a couple of times, see if the plots/characters dont get you a little interested, it does beat the heck outa DWTS or the biggest loser, but not as good as top shot!

It's not always easy to tell the difference.

Back when SoA first came out I watched a couple of the eps from the middle of the season and I didn't like the show at all. My neighbor and I were talking and this show came up. She said that I really needed to watch it from the beginning and if I did I would like it. She lent me her season 1 DVDs and she was right. I've been watching ever since.

I just got back from a long weekend of working, hunting, and dual sporting, I have recaps of seasons 1-3 on the DVR, I would bet they will have replays, it may give you a view of the show, as Conrad said, just coming into the show it isnt all that good, understanding the plots, twists, and peculiarities makes it good.

Yeah, there's way more than just some 1%ers riding around on sanitized HDs.

Wasnt too shabby, I was hoping for a little more lead in as to whos who, but they sure started things off with a bang!  With the new AUSA setting up camp things should take a few new spins.

I have a college friend who I recently found on Facebook.  During the time since I saw him last (30 years), he said he became very involved with a club such as this. He says it is "scary" how accurate this show is.  Like the writers had inside guys.  I have never found out how he got out of the club, I still need to ask him about it someday.

I DVR'd last years season ender and watched that last night. I wanted to refresh my memory. I watched about half of the new before getting sleepy and hitting the hey. So far so good.

Sopranos didn't help our family either ;)
