    Son's of Anarchy has strayed from narrative substance and rich character development it built over the first 3 seasons. The characters are almost impossible to identify with, as the level of self-destructive tenancies leave the viewer to believe SAMCRO as the most amateur of criminal organisations. Bring back intelligent character driven resolution instead of the reactionary lowest commonSon's of Anarchy has strayed from narrative substance and rich character development it built over the first 3 seasons.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. a mess of a show. too many red herrings setting up whole series. casual racist undertones and a stupid plot about a recovering addict being injected against her will by the main protagonist. the whole show has degenerated into a bunch of glorified scum, solving puzzles like some red neck a team for virgins and racists. the credibility was lost seasons ago and the intrigue is in the dustbin now also. this is not a white sopranos.. this is a juvinile version of the a team, with racist degenerate scum instead of heros.… Expand

    The second season revealed artistic ambition, reaching for a certain amount of depth in characterization and storytelling. Assessed on that level, the last two seasons have fallen far short of the mark and it seems season five will only repeat the pattern.
