Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25013 | I love this show. Am watching 3 episodes a day on Netflix. It's an adult comic book. The acting is top notch, the writing is super. It's action from start to end. It's intrigue and twists and turns. it's pure Americana. No fantastic locations, not even good interiors. Just fast paced action and great acting. Lots of good guest stars. Nobody could live like this, there is more drama in one day then most of us experience in a lifetime. This is what entertainment is about. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

It had to end that way, the creator said he knew it would when he started the show. What did you think the point of of Jax dad having the journal was, or Jax keeping the notebook for his kids. Or Jax, season after season, getting worse and worse in his actions. They did the same in Breaking Bad. Walter Whites fate was sealed in season 2 when he let that girl choke in her own vomit and didn't try to save her. He had to die. Jax fate was sealed when he shot the innocent prison guards wife in the head and shrugged it off as 'collateral damage'. These are bad people, they had to die. If you take a risk, you may lose.

I didn't necessarily mean that the last episode was bad but the whole last season. The fact that he would die was predictable and proper, I just found myself fast forwarding through many parts of each episode in the last season. BTW, I thought Breaking Bad ended well. I thought that whole series was great. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

I FF'd thru the scenes that were just women talking to other women, for the whole season. Women talking doesn't interest me at all, I figure if a plot advancement is revealed I'll find out about it anyway. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
