Sons of Anarchy Season3

[Murgatroy]

I did notice when the credits rolled that King's character's name was Bachman. I thought that was nifty.

This season seems to be just banging along, the episode is over and it feels like there is so much left to say. It flows from one to the other with ease. I can't wait to see where the season goes.

While I am enjoying it I'm liking it less than 1&2. I know there's a build up, but he's dragging a few things out a bit I think. With the increase in commercials it's making it worse. The Shield started getting like this around Season 5 and my interest started to fade even though I hung in til the end. I hope Kurt can do better than just a big opening and finale.

[Guest jackdm3]

CastTV. Nooooo commercials if you can stand to wait till Wednesdays.

[analog_kidd]

I've also noticed that it seems like one week is guns a blazin' action, and the next week is more subdued story line development. I like the action weeks better.

How do you get it to play in better definition? I had never been there before and it took me a while to get it to work and when I did, it was all blotchy, blocky youtube like. Site sort of confusing for a dummy like me.

[Guest jackdm3]

While certainly not HD, the resolution doesn't bother me much. After you posted this, I went to the last episode to check, and it IS blotchy like I've never seen before. It's a trade-off, I guess. Keeps me from getting cable/dish.

[Il Duce]

yall need to learn the joys called torrents

[Murgatroy]

If it was the only way to watch it, I would watch it in Low-Def.

However, after upgrading to a HDTV, sadly just this year, I don't know how I lived without it.

[Il Duce]

DAMN YOU KURT SUTTER AND YOUR ABILITY TO MAKE A FANTASTIC STORY THAT DRAWS YOU IN AND YOU MAKE US CLING TO IT AND THEN MAKE US WAIT FOR NEXT WEEK AND YOUR ABILITY TO MAKE PEOPLES BLOOD PRESSURE RAISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Murgatroy]

Yeah, that was kinda mean the way that ended.

There is so much up in the air right now.

[Guest Lester Weevils]

Caught a couple of SOA episodes last year. Watched season 1 and 2 over the last couple of weeks on the puter.

Liked season 1 best overall. Season 2 was pretty complicated but the last couple of episodes Season 2 seemed inspired writing.

I'm lost on this season. Don't know half of what is going on, and it is too complicated. Too much an irreconcilable mess. If it doesn't get more cogent over the next couple of episodes will probably lose interest.

[analog_kidd]

Arrgh! The video on CastTV is out of synch with the audio. Anybody know of an alternate location to watch it?

[Punisher84]

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Killin' me this season lol

Maybe there is an SOA cliff notes somewhere on the web.

Just started watching the new one on Cast with major sync probs. So here's what you do: Just under the right side of the window, you have other player options. I picked Megavideo's. All in sync AND volume, search and pause controls work.

Saw "The Ladykillers" again last night, but hadn't seen it since before SOA started. Discovered "Opie" is the very campy blundering idiot on the crew. Check it.

[analog_kidd]

I think Opie also played one of the football players in Remember the Titans.

Yup. That's him.

Season one

The series begins with the torching of a SAMCRO gun-assembly warehouse and the theft of guns by a rival club, the Mayans. The police attend the scene, where a cop, Tramell, who is on the SAMCRO payroll finds two dead illegal immigrants. Meanwhile, Jax's estranged meth-addicted wife Wendy, who is pregnant with his child, collapses. An emergency C-section is performed and the baby is delivered ten weeks prematurely. Jax struggles with the direction the club is taking, away from its roots and into less legal territory. Gemma tells Wendy that if she tries to gain custody of the child, Abel, that she will kill Wendy, and Gemma supplies her with drugs which Wendy immediately takes and from which she overdoses. Charming Deputy Chief Hale finds the immigrants' bodies at the burnt-out warehouse, but Tig and Bobby remove them before he can forensically examine them. Tara receives a threatening phone call from a former boyfriend and ATF agent, Josh Kohn, who comes to Charming to investigate the Sons.

To solve a gun-trafficking problem under the ATF's watchful eye, the Sons head out to Indian Hills, Nevada to patch over the Devil's Tribe Motorcycle Club. Whilst there, Clay sleeps with a girl named Cherry, who also takes a liking to Half Sack. Kohn follows the Sons, and witnesses their shoot out with the Mayans. Kohn provides Tara pictures of Jax in very compromising places to try and split the two. The Sons soon become aware of Kohn's presence in Charming. Clay is arrested on charges of aiding and abetting a triple homicide after guns the Sons sold were used in a shoot out. Cherry arrives in Charming, and Gemma realizes that Clay has slept with her. Shortly after Gemma assaults her with a skateboard, for which she is also arrested.

Tara reveals to Jax that Kohn has been stalking her since she broke up with him, and that she has a restraining order on him. Jax throws Kohn through a window before beating him and telling him to stay away from Tara. Kohn is arrested for breaking his restraining order and his career as an ATF agent is over. Kohn returns to Tara's house and attempts to rape her, before she shoots him in the stomach. Jax comes to her aid, but when Kohn calls Tara a "biker slut" Jax shoots him in the head. Jax buries Kohn in the hills.

Opie botches a planned assassination that was a favor for the Irish Republican Army, and Bobby steps in to complete the task. However, their crime is witnessed by a young girl. ATF Agent Stahl tries to crack the unity of the club by interrogating the women associated with the club: Tara, Luann, Donna, and Cherry. Stahl arrests Cherry on outstanding warrants, but Unser aids Cherry, who escapes Charming that night. When Big Otto learns that Stahl is trying to use the RICO Act to bring the club down for racketeering, he violently assaults Stahl. The young girl who witnessed Bobby commit murder provides the ATF with sketches of Bobby and Opie, who are subsequently arrested. Stahl sets up Opie to look like a rat, even though she knows it endangers his life, and Tig and Clay fall for the ploy. They believe Opie has turned informant when they find wire taps in Opie's phone and car. Clay orders Tig to kill Opie without telling anyone else in the club, however Tig accidentally kills Donna when she is driving Opie's truck.

Clay and Tig set up the shooting to look like the One-Niners shot Donna. However, feeling guilty, Deputy Hale tells Jax that Stahl set up Opie and Jax subsequently realizes that Clay organized the shooting. The Sons successfully threaten the witness in order to prevent her from testifying. Jax is clearly unhappy remaining under Clay's rule, as he sees Clay as immoral and taking the club from its roots.

Season two

The season opens with the arrival of a new threat in Charming, white separatists called the League Of American Nationalists (LOAN). LOAN's leader, businessman Ethan Zobelle, and backer, Zobelle's enforcer A.J. Weston, seek to drive the Sons of Anarchy from the town of Charming. To send a message to SAMCRO, Zobelle arranges for the kidnapping and sexual assault of Gemma, with his own daughter, Polly, orchestrating the kidnapping, and Weston and others gang raping Gemma. Gemma chooses to keep silent about her rape.

From prison, Big Otto reaches out to SAMCRO, asking them to help his wife, Luann, and her pornography studio after a raid from law enforcement and intimidation from a rival pornographer, Georgie Caruso, threaten her business. Jax proposes that SAMCRO become partners in Luann’s porn business and offer protection to her and her performers, a move he hopes will raise money for the club legitimately while they rebuild their other revenue streams.

Opie, struggling to deal with Donna’s death, throws himself fully into the MC and, consequently, becomes increasingly distant from his children. Fueled by SAMCRO’s role in Donna’s death, the rift between Clay and Jax continues to widen, with Jax challenging most of Clay's decisions. When a LOAN car bomb nearly kills Chibs, Clay demands immediate retaliation. But retaliation was what LOAN wanted, and several members of the MC, including Clay, Jax, Bobby, and Tig, are arrested in a botched attempt to attack Ethan Zobelle. While in jail, Agent Stahl from the ATF returns in an attempt to get SAMCRO to rat out their IRA connections. Although they do not give up the IRA, Stahl succeeds in provoking Clay and Jax into a physical confrontation in jail. Out on bail, the divisions in the club only get worse. The tension between Jax and Clay reaches a breaking point when the porn studio burns down shortly after Clay announces he wants SAMCRO out of the porn business. Jax initially believes that Clay had the place torched and announces that he is going to "go Nomad". Most of the SAMCRO members are upset with Jax's decision but ultimately vote in favor of his going Nomad. In order to convince Jax to stay, Gemma tells Jax and Clay about Weston raping her, which unites Clay and Jax.

The club, however, nearly falls when Tig, overcome with guilt, confesses to Opie that he murdered Donna because Agent Stahl and the ATF had made it look as though Opie had become a rat. At the same time, Chibs agreed to help Stahl take down the IRA and its head, Jimmy O, who is in town to repair the IRA's relationship with SAMCRO. Based on information supplied by Chibs, the ATF was able to apprehend Edmond Hayes, who they then wanted to use to apprehend his father, Cameron, and Jimmy O. Opie later witnessed Chibs leaving a meeting with the ATF and informed the club of what he saw but asked them to confront Chibs before acting. Chibs, already having doubts about becoming an informant, revealed to the club what he did.

Meanwhile, the Sons learn that Ethan Zobelle's true intentions were not racially motivated but were to get in business with the Mayans on the prison heroin trade. The MC was able to exploit this information when they reveal it to AJ Weston, who was deeply committed to his racial beliefs and would not tolerate doing business with the Hispanic Mayans. This caused a split between AJ and Zobelle. Weston was soon arrested in connection with the fire at Luann's porn studio. Later, Hale arrives at Impeccable Smokes as the Sons are confronting Zobelle. In attempt to save his and his daughter's lives, Zobelle informed the police that he was in possession of narcotics and is arrested. However, both were released by custody and Unser learns that Zobelle, unbeknownst to both the ATF and Weston, has actually been an FBI informant for the past three years. With the loss of Weston's support, Zobelle turned to the Mayans for protection. Weston, however, was on his own and was eventually gunned down by Jax.

Agent Stahl continued to hold Edmond Hayes in an attempt to use Edmond to lure and arrest his father. Out of loyalty to his father, Edmond attempts to kill Stahl, who shoots him when he tried to escape. Shortly afterward, Polly Zobelle, Ethan's daughter who had been having an affair with Edmond, arrived at the safe house. She had been followed there by Gemma, who then shot her. Stahl witnessed the shooting and let Gemma escape but then proceeded to frame her for Edmond's shooting. After learning of Edmond's death at Gemma's hands, Cameron broke into Jax's home, and stabbed Half-Sack before threatening Tara and kidnapping Abel.

Meanwhile the rest of the Sons had ambushed Zobelle and the Mayans, forcing the Mayans to retreat while Zobelle fled on his own. The Sons followed Zobelle, who stayed in public places, knowing the Sons would not attack him in the open. Zobelle called Hale for help, but was ignored. After a strange call from Tara, Jax returned to his home, where he discovered the body of Half-Sack, and finds Tara tied up, and she tells Jax that Cameron took Abel. Jax calls Clay who returns to help track down Cameron without killing Zobelle. The Sons pursue Cameron, who makes his way to the docks where he takes Abel and boards his boat. Chief Unser, after receiving a phone call from Gemma, is last seen driving in his police cruiser with her past Charming's city limits, apparently running off with her. Ethan Zobelle is seen quickly getting on a chartered plane back to Budapest without his dead daughter, Polly. The season ends with the Sons arriving just as Cameron is leaving the docks.

Season three

The first episode picks up shortly after the abduction of Abel. Gemma is hiding up north in Rogue River, Oregon with Tig, while the club tries to sort things out in Charming. Jax and Tara's relationship is strained as they try and cope with the loss of Abel. The club tries to close in on Cameron's trail, but find that he has liquidated his assets and apparently fled the country. Gemma and Tig visit Gemma's father, who suffers from dementia. At the end of Half-Sack's wake, masked men commit a drive-by shooting. Deputy Hale is fatally run down by the vehicle, one of the shooters is captured, and at least two others are wounded. After seeing an innocent child has been shot, Jax mercilessly smashes the gunman's head against the pavement before Bobby, Clay, and Opie manage to pull him off.
