*****SPOILERS********
Theres also a few arguments online that Bob may have been apart of their group at some point. They keep referring to him by his name after not knowing him for very long.They did it at the killing trough and before it was revealed they were eating his leg. Kinda fucked up that scene
Im really enjoying this season and i actually liked last season aswell. Seems like a 'The Wire' Reunion right now on the show

I def thought last season had its highs, the Governor arc should have ended with the prison assault in Season 3, but with a better last 2 episodes and a resolution. I REALLY liked the illness story-line actually, so I really liked the first part of Season 4 and the stuff with the Governor was top notch, but I agree it should have ended with season 4.
Second half of season 4 had some really high highs(The Grove, Season Finale) and some really low lows(anything with Glen and Maggie). Plus the pace was really not to my liking, it was too slow at points and too quick at others. I loved the character development, but the overall eps dragged.
Season 5 has been brilliant thus far. The premier was the best premier since the pilot and last night's episode had some great pacing as it developed some characters(Bob and Sasha, intro of a new character, Carol continuing her amazing transformation) and the action was awesome, plus of course the shocking end. I've never been worried about the first half of the seasons as they are generally pretty solid(Second season superslow down aside), its the second half that has wavered in quality.

Would make sense.

Anyone watching Resurrection? Surprisingly good show, and Omar Epps is a great protagonist. Has a Lost feel to it, and every episode has been engaging.

Sons of Anarchy has been a disaster this season. I'm usually pretty lenient on shows (I for one love the last season of Walking Dead, when many criticized it), but it's been a mess. Nothing feel like it moving to the inevitable in, just a bunch of stalling, and side stories we could give a shit about.
*SPOILERS*
Everyone wants to know wtf is gonna happen to Gemma? And why in the fuck is Juice not telling Jax she killed Tara? He got caught, and he's just shooting at cops and taking a hit for the club? WTF is that shit? Makes no sense.
*END SPOILER*
The last episode just pissed me off. It had nothing interesting, and it feels like it's not moving anywhere. Unlike breaking bad, where you feel that the show is moving at a great pace to see the ultimate end. You don't have an ounce of sympathy for Jax (unlike Walt, who even tho he was a monster, still wanted him to make it right somehow). They should of ended it last season, and just added 3 more episodes. Because this season has been a waste, and everyone just wants to see people die, and Sutter is stalling on moving towards that.

Yeah I've been madly disappointed with this season, especially with how last season ended. I liked
**spoilers**
The Chinese retaliation, and the fact that them trying to force Marks away from them ended badly, but other than that nothing has happened AT ALL.

I think this sums Sons of Anarchy the most.
At the start, in the first season the summary for the show was this "A man in his early 30s struggles to find a balance in his life between being a new dad and his involvement in a motorcycle club." When it was a pretty simple story line I really enjoyed it.
It's gone away from that in the last few seasons and is more just a dumb pointless feud after another and I think Kurt Sutter thinks he's being clever with how Jax deals with the club beefs at the end of most seasons when it fact it is just dumb and beyond entertaining. In saying that I still find myself watching every week because I need to see how bad it gets.
I totally agree aswell J-Sav, Walter White still had you feeling for him somewhat and even in his work with the Shield, Vic Mackey was the guy who could do everything wrong but was still at times someone you liked. (not so much at the end lol)

See, I thought season 6 had it going back in the right direction with a bunch of plot threads finally coming to an end that were on its last limbs and prolly shoulda ended years ago(Clay's storyline, Tara and Gemma's feud, and pushing the Irish out from the spotlight of the show), and was really excited for this season buts been one huge let down.

Started watching Chuck. About halfway through season 2. Decent show, but hasn't really taken that next step yet for me that elevates it. It has it's moments, but then seems to regress. Watching him "flash" each episode is getting a bit redundant though when you're binge watching on Netflix and it seems no matter what he's doing he comes across a bad guy. I'm still enjoying it though. Has some funny stuff and don't really dislike any of the characters so far. Several of the shows i've tried lately i've kind of given up on, but will probably stick with this one. 5 seasons total.
Reminds me, if you haven't watched Reaper it's worth checking out, especially if you like Tyler Labine.

I remember watching season 5 way back but I recently picked it up on netflix myself. I'm in the episode after the Strahan one.

Walking dead still being awesome so far.
***spoilers**** Did any of you watch talking dead with the guy who plays the head cannibal? Cool insight into how little side characters like him even know how he shows plot will go. Also, when Rick showed him the machete that was one of the coolest scenes of the show ever, I was like "yeah, bitch, rick made a promise!"
