I feel like this show jumped the shark when Jax didn't kill Clay after seeing what he did to Gemma. I know they're all outlaw bikers and shit, but who son, even in la la biker land, doesn't go nuclear when seeing that happen to his mom? Well a son who's supposed to be a bad ass, grown man, not abused and all that.

It probably jumped earlier, but even with the random schedule and sometimes implausible storyline, I took a double take on that one.

With Jax's little run in with stealing that dude's motorcycle, he could easily be put away in prison again.

And, I agree, Baffled, Jax should have taken care of business, and at least should have kicked Clay's ass. It would have been sweet if Jax had held the gun on Clay as well, and they both put bullets into him, but instead the faggot was threatening Opie when Ope pulled the trigger.

I guess that would be the end of that friendship. They are contracted for another season, what the fuck are they going to do next year?

Who knows. I wondered that about The Shield too. Where do they go from here? But they found the way pretty well.

The difference is that this isn't The Shield. Good, but different.

Actually, I think Shaf's point that Jax is almost sociopathic with his declarations of wanting to get out and have a better life, then cutting that Russian open and being able to justify it.... that's when the show started with the shark jumpage.

Of course, I'm not going anywhere, but I am more excited for Justified to start.

I jumped straight in and liked Justified from the get go, but most people I know who watch the show took a little while to warm up to it.

I am looking more and more forward to it each week.

Fuck this. I don't give a shit anymore.

I'll still watch it though.

Something will happen to prevent Jax killing Clay in hospital. He'll kill him eventually though.

They won't get out of Charming. At least not for a while.

The shark has been jumped. I have nothing better to watch, so I'll probably still watch, but this is not The Shield and Jax with his melodramatic intensity is pissing me off more than anyone. Someone should just punch him in the ovaries and turn him into an old lady already.

Yeah.

The changing of Tara's character sucks. She's turning into a smarter, younger, Gemma. I think she might die or leave.

Predictions for next week:

Clay tells Jax that Gemma and Unser were involved with JT's death. Clay doesn't die. Jax talks Ope into letting the club handle it.

Happy dies. I want to say Tigg dies too, but I am not so sure about this. One of the main bikers will die, whether it's Chibbs, Tigg, Happy, or Juice. Unlikely it'll be Juice since he's locked up, but some twist might make it so. Maybe the Sheriff will let him out.

Bobby is in prison. Otto will have his death sentence carried out.

I am having a hard time thinking about how Jax will stay out of prison.

Machete will get away, his lieutenant will die. The Irish get away. The 1-9ers are going to war. Maybe that will be next season.

This season got too messy, and while it's still entertaining, it almost got too cute. Jax is basically a sociopath. It's kind of interesting how Tigg used to be a sociopath, but ever since he killed Donna, he's been changing.

I think Tiggs will die. He's had such a personal crisis going on for a while that I don't see how in the coming changing of the guard that he makes it through. Especially with the negro gang getting uppity.

I think Happy and Opie end up more like Bobby and Tiggs were for Clay, only for Jax.

It hasn't even been interesting anymore how Gemma's basically been the boss of the club.

Maybe there's some weird angle here, like Romeo is a Fed, and Lincoln Potter is something other than a fed.

Interesting prediction I saw on the comments section of the season finale promo.
Clay is Jax dad. The ADA is an alive John Teller who was really an undercover cop at the time.

Holy fuck. It was so un-memorable that I forgot I was even going to post any kind of hate on it.

After the second to the last episodes manic build-up, it was a complete let down.

This is all bullshit. The first three seasons were good and it was one of my favorite shows.

Now it fucking sucks and I hope it get canceled so I don't have to see Ron Perlman's shitty fucking face, Jax's melodramatic and shitty fucking face, and all the rest of the bullshit.

I'll probably still tune in next season though.

I think a US Attorney would remind some CIA spookes that the CIA has no jurisdiction and is not allowed by law to run operations with in the US.
