they ruined it a while ago. you can only stretch out the story of a flabby and sick biker gang for so long until it starts bordering on fantasy. a sheriff was murdered and they don't even talk about it anymore. all you hear about is solving tara's murder. in what universe is her murder more important than that of a sheriff? and this horny bitch they replaced roosevelt with is setting women in law enforcement back 50 years. back to the flabby and sick crew. they've defeated ex mexican special forces who work for a cartel and their most recent win is against ex blackwater ops who were conned into driving up to a pretty big house when they were suppose to be going to a cabin. WTF WTF WTF. the suttery.

fortunately only 2 more episodes to go, when you've invested seasons into this nonsense you gotta at least finish it.

The 100 is a surprisingly good show. The second season has been excellent so far, and really dark too. I actually have five CW shows on my list of shows I'm watching.

This episode was strong and the finish should be good, but it's not enough to save the season overall, and the feeling that this show has jumped the shark in a big way for three seasons now.

Looking back Sons of Anarchy feels like a show that had five good seasons in it. The Clay/Jax power struggle with Gemma as the wild card connected to both was always the most intruiging part of the show. They did mostly everything right with the storyline in the first four seasons, buliding it slow and steady before giving Jax the gavel in the season four finale. From there they should have done one more season to wrap it up in spectacular fashion. Now that would have been a great show. Instead they chose to plow on to keep the high ratings of an established show and jeopardize the quality. I don't mind Nero as a character but he is a symbol of the show running out of steam after losing it's star performer Ron Perlman, who should have been the antagonist right until the end.

What was the season in NI, season 3 was it? Thats when it started going to pot. And before that it was never even great but at least it was fun. Making the episodes longer was the real death sentence for it. Who wants another montage backed with Gemma singing?

I thought Season 4 was the best season. Virtually every member of the club had a compelling storyline, and there was so much tension from the start of the season to the end. They screwed up badly with the finale though, and the decision to go beyond 5 seasons.

the coli has the best smileys ever 😆

sons of anarchy has been awful for ages. season 1, 2, and 4 were good television, everything else has stunk. i'm just watching to see what happens, but honestly wouldn't care if everyone on the show was just killed off

What can you say really? Hamlet's a fairly long play but even it only has five acts.

😆

Hamlet.

Flash, Arrow, the 100, TVD and the Originals?

I watched the first couple of episodes of the 100 and liked it then I told my girlfriend to catch up and I forgot all about it. Might catch up when everything stops for Christmas.

Speaking of the CW I hear Jane the Virgin is very good. Have you watched that yet?

Correct! Haven't seen Jane the Virgin, might check it out after exams. Perhaps the best CW show I've seen is Nikita. The trailers and promo pictures are so bad I suspect they were trying to get people not to watch it, but it really is excellent. Think it's on Netflix.

Qwiss

I watched the first half a season of Nikita but never really liked it.

QuincyAbeyie

Ah, too bad! Well, I better start working so I can get home to see what's up with Elena's love life today.

You probably already know but SoA was supposed to be "Shakespearean" and loosely based on Hamlet. 🙂

No I never watched it, but everything is.

Nihil sub sole novum.

Ah, but more of the same is a little bit different.

Anyone watched Happy Valley? Have watched 4 episodes so far and it's pretty compelling (albeit grim) viewing. Similar to Broadchurch which was excellent.

Rachel McAdams, Taylor Kitsch and Kelly Reilly confirmed for True Detective. I liked Taylor Kitsch in FNL. I do like Vince Vaughn too, even though I don't like most of his movies. Farrell? I don't know, In Bruges wasn't too bad if I remember correctly. It's a good television cast, but a long way down from McConaughey and Harrelson (and Alexandra Daddario 🙂 ).
