Gemma's character gets much more depth in S2.
Have just started S3. Holy O_O
Also my crush on Opie is reaching unmanageable levels :D

my wife is in love with hunnam and his naked ass. me...not so much. I do love me a little Tara though.

why cant they show her ass once.
I liked s1 and loved s2 up until the finale. s3 has kinda lost me tbh, I watch every now and then but it doesn't seem as good to me as it used to.

yeah this season has been a bit of a let down for me so far.

Yeah I gotta say s3 has been a let down so far. But hoping it will pick up when the gang hits Ireland.

Looks like Tig played lead in Macbeth too? How cool would that be. Love that guy.
― That is the stench of tyranny (VegemiteGrrrl), Wednesday, 20 October 2010 20:01 (thirteen years ago) link
I love all those moments with Tig where he reveals all of his perversions. Like at the stables when he's petting the horse, or at the morgue with the dead body, and Clay's always "I don't wanna know"

Tig is one of my favorite characters. At first i did not find tara attractive at all, she grew on me.

this show has also pushed me closer to buying a harley. especially since they replay that godamn commercial where they advertise harleys for $8995.

Just put your kid up as collateral. (Then break through the wall on said Harley, steal your kid back and hit the road to live the dream.)

I'm two episodes behind, so it might be getting better, but I think spreading this to Belfast on top of Gemma going away is a problem.

Things are finally coming together, we finally get now who's on what side and so on. I love that they're so obviously trying to get Katey an Emmy. Lots of great delivery by Jax this episode, too... "My mother".

it's weird to me to see someone on this thread say Gemma gets better in season 2, to me she was immediately the most compelling character on the show. man, the actors have to sell some stupid dialogue on this show sometimes, though -- like, saying "secret babies are a bad idea" with a straight face, jeez.
― Danble Perritration (some dude), Thursday, 4 November 2010 03:28 (thirteen years ago) link
Well, it's a pretty hammy show so that dialogue kind of works. I seem to always be running 3 or 4 episodes behind. I just have no motivation to watch it week in, week out. At some point I'll get bored and catch up. I usually enjoy it when I do, but then come Tuesday I still can't be bothered.
― Dork City (Gukbe), Thursday, 4 November 2010 03:42 (thirteen years ago) link
this season is moving incredibly slowly, you're probably making the right decision. still, i'm enjoying it - not really sure how it stacks up vs. last year yet, i guess the finale will really decide it (so, probably lesser)
― Nhex, Thursday, 4 November 2010 08:56 (thirteen years ago) link
My husband would agree.
I had a biker come into our shop the other week. THE EXACT SAME FUCKING PATCHES. I mean of course not sons of anarchy or samcro on it, but same style. WTF. Alas he didn't look like Jax. Or maybe for the best or I'd have jumped him. hihi
I don't know, I really like this season as well, but it IS indeed going very slowly.
I loved how that woman from the hospital had a MAJOR TATTOO on her back. Can't wait to find out how that works out.
― Nathalie (stevienixed), Thursday, 4 November 2010 09:00 (thirteen years ago) link
she was probably someones old lady at some point. i think she sees a bit of herself in Tara.
― Str8 Drapin It (chrisv2010), Thursday, 4 November 2010 13:08 (thirteen years ago) link
gonna wait for s3 to finish before watching so i can binge again.
it's weird to me to see someone on this thread say Gemma gets better in season 2, to me she was immediately the most compelling character on the show.
i thought the character and the old lady dynamic were compelling from the start, but she got much more depth in s2 - her fears, growing relationship with tara, etc.
everyone otm about hamminess. i can see it turning some people off. in the beginning i groaned, but it's part of the charm now for sure.
― another al3x, Thursday, 4 November 2010 16:19 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah it's totally part and parcel of the show, but there are always moments here and there (the "secret babies" line, the speeches in the s1 finale) where it gets too much for me. and yeah, i guess what Gemma went through in s2 was big as far as developing that character.
― some dude, Thursday, 4 November 2010 16:58 (thirteen years ago) link
i'm only in the middle of the first season, but this run of events was pretty good:
1. SOA burn the back tattoo off their former member2. katey segal picks up a nearby skateboard and wallops the girl who clay slept with in the face3. girl says, 'who are you??? why did you do that to me????'4. septic tank full of contraband guns is emptied out into the parking lot, SOA members wretching
― j., Thursday, 4 November 2010 17:20 (thirteen years ago) link
Gemma with the skateboard is k-lassic!
Still love Gemma & Tara shooting the porn star's Prius. Chicks with guns, man. LOVE. IT.

― sofatruck, Thursday, 18 November 2010 16:10 (thirteen years ago) link
I actually thought that scene was well done.. For me, the heavy-handed THUD landed when Jimmy's henchman sprayed brains & blood all over the wall-mounted crucifix (w/ second, lingering camera shot, to really drive home symbolism).

Tig just won my heart heart and might be the hero in this shitshow. How or why they decided to throw in this love story I have no idea, but in the midst of the murder, torture, sexism, and stubbornness I'm grateful there's an against all odds lay my soul bare love story. I still have 3 more episodes until the end, so they could just ruin it, but I hope not.
