Hasnt aired in NZ, but will wait until I have the entire series to watch at my leisure!
-
Just discovered I have a new channel called Soho or something, what are they putting on that?<br />
<br />
I'm mentally prepared for Sky to wait till it gets popular then make it a pay channel, if it is any good I'd love to swap it for the two estrogen channels vibe and E. -
that is going to have all the good HBO type programmes, many mentioned in here, but will be pay (like Rialto) from 01/12 I believe...

I had a rethink on SOA 3 and I don't think it is as bad as we remember. It is bad in comparison with the first two seasons, but not with a lot of other programming out there. In saying that, I'm glad they're back in Charming and this season is already leagues better.

So, a cracking ending to Breaking Bad season 4. <br />

I was kind of hoping that Fring would be revealed to be a terminator though. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /><br />

Are you up to date with SOA?<br />

What's the deal with C-Note (umm, the black Sheriff) trying to blackmail Juice with his supposed Black heritage? The logic leap doesn't work for me. At no point have SAMCRO come across as racist. Juice (Ortiz) is also Hispanic (as surely Happy is as well), and this hasn't been an issue. And in previous seasons SAMCRO has dealt with the Grim Bastards (who were a Black MC). Does anyone really buy the fact that homeboy Jax in his white sneaks and baggy jeans hates Blacks??? It's ridiculous and is pissing me off in what otherwise is a really good season. Grrr.<br />

One percenter gangs are notoriously racist and quite often have sympathies towards/criminal ties with white supremacists (though they may deal with black gangs too). The show has avoided that aspect of gangs like the Sons until now. -

Yeah, it is the stupidest plot point this season - and I made my rating just after watching that ep. At no stage have they ever come across as racist, and as you note Happy and Juice (used to be) hispanic. They were actually really buddy buddy with the Grim Bastards if I remember correctly. Ok, thanks Don you've ruined this series for me now!<br />
<br />
Tim: that may be true in real life but SAMCRO have always been against the white supremacists and have often indicated they have no problem with colour. -

Yeah sorry but I'm glad it's not just me that had a problem with that particular arc.<br />
<br />
I have no doubt that the Sons would deal with whoever and whatever scum necessary if it was business related. But taking a racist stance on membership seems to me to be at serious odds to some of the characters personalities. -

I actually thought that Juice was going to be related to the drug cartels or a top cop or something, anything but his old man is black.<br />
<br />
What are you doing Kurt Sutter? -
c'mon guys...I like this thread but cant enter cos all it is is spoliers <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='B)' /><br />
<br />
you 2 need to get a room and chat about it <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> -
Without any spoiling.....<br />
<br />
If you are interested in the reasons behind the storyline have a little google. From cast interviews it appears Sutter is trying to introduce and explore the racism question as part of the season, hence the black cop as well.<br />
I kind of agree that it doesn't seem to fit but there is meant to be a no blacks rule in the club -

That was exactly what me and the missus were thinking. Seemed a weird route to go down in season 4 after no lead in what so ever. -

It's been bothering me too, be interesting to see where it ends up going. Sutter usually has a point to his side tracks, a very talented writer, if batshit crazy.
