Sons of Anarchy: Season 2
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010Sons of Anarchy: Season 2
A friend of mine got me into SOA as it isn’t anything likely to hit our screens here in Oz. Ironically enough the theme of the show is not that far removed from a lot of the bike gangs we have here and hear about but i digress.It took me a few episodes to get hooked on SOA as i can honestly say it is unlike any American show i have watched. Its grainy and raw and even the actors are people who you’d see in your everyday life and not the glam and glitter that Hollywood or the like fobs off.For that i ended up loving SOA. A lot. I like also that there are a lot of “known” but not blown up actors. You know their faces but you don’t have them seared into your mind from over exposure so you can suspend judgment and believe these characters exist. And the characters drive this gallery. It isn’t the most polished TV collection but its edgy and if you are looking for something you can sink your teeth into and not get sick from the saccharine then bite into this show.You will invest and you will care about these people even if they are the “kind” of people we normally fear and shun. And that is not to say the writers glamorize or sympathise, they just offer a different view point. Something we don’t normally see.That is the hook and the viewing pleasure of Sons of Anarchy.
