so hope the tara arc comes to an end in the next show or 2, so tired of it.

don't think really noticed the other extra long shows this season, but this would should have been saved for home release.
never cared about the whole bag lady easter egg deal.

They lost me. The bag lady being a guardian angel, or a conscience, or whatever they want to make her is fine. But making her the girls mom I'm not sure how that ties together. Maybe I am reading too much into it.

Well, if it is based off of Shakespeare--then it should have a supernatural element. So maybe she's just a ghost. It's going to be really stupid if she's not.

Thats the problem. She is definitely a ghost since she was in Ireland. But whats the point of HER as the Ghost?

At this point its just "HEY CHECK IT OUT SHES A GHOST" as the sole reason, which is just stupid. Might as well have a Leprechaun pop up in the background every few episodes so they can just say "Hey fucking leprechauns AMIRITE?"

People still watch this? TWD is hot on its heels on my no-longer-watch list.

So bag lady is defying physics now? She's probably the ghost of some chick Jax's dad was banging and Clay raped/killed, who represents the purity of the MC or some shit. They could spend 4 episodes boringly talking about it, then ignore it and have an Otto episode (he still alive?).

I didn't catch the bag lady thing at all, I guess I just wasn't paying attention.

Honestly I missed it at first, then my buddy mentioned it from an interview with Sutter posted right after the show. Then I rewatched.
Its such a small minor thing calling back over the years, if not for the internet pointing it out most people wouldnt know.

show makes no sense, juice was ready to die by doing evil kineval stuff when the other state troopers tried to steal their bikes, when the crazy dad in the jalope car decided to run over the mexican and juice just stood there, but when tara decides to back up into his bike, is the only time he decides he needs to activate his self preservation powers?

i guess the next episode they're gonna include the blacks and mexicans again, hell it's like what non white ppl are we missing today?

Tara is the only person over the age of 6 left on this show that I have any sympathy left for, at all.

Yeah, I actually feel bad for Tara. Whenever I said Gunn's character on BB should stop being an irrational twat, I was pretty much advocating for her to act more like Tara. Tara doesn't just sit on the side and bitch about a very real problem while the man struggles to solve it (IE she's a doctor, and offered Jacks a way out--she makes good money.)....Tara also stayed totally loyal to Jacks even when shit started going down. However, when she decided it was too dangerous to continue? She didn't just sit there and whine and bitch, she actually did something about it.

She's a strong female character. If Gunn wants to see one, there you go. Now, that doesn't stop her from being crazy, hah. Tara has done some stupid shit. But overall, she's just a strong character and she's honestly trying to do the right thing.

Yeah, she did some crazy shit, but really you have to be fucking psycho not to understand why. Especially after the bomb which very, very nearly killed her children. This is such a crazy situation to be trying to raise kids in, and I really thought the DA would be her way out of this mess.

i wasn't really paying attention (you can't with this shitty show) but why was unser not on her side? i mean if ppl kept their shit together maybe jax would have believed tara for more than 1 eps, instead of running over to his MILF partner. i mean she came up with a multi-faceted plan, basically the best plan ever conceived on the show even by the MC, where the MC's plan is "oh bad guy... let's shank him next episode" but like her plan was too smart for all the dumb ppl. really what was unser's problem? was it b/c it was a plan against gemma?

if i was a 70 yr old cancer dying retired cop, i'd do whatever to help her get those kids out of charming, not go emo and make tara feel bad.

hell, i'd say this plan isn't enough, you gotta kill gemma.

oh i'd just love it if tara triple suicides with the kids, it's really the only way.

Unser was basically disgusted by Tara's tactics. Keep in mind that this is the same guy who fuckingcovered up the fact that Gemma murdered her husband with Clay for goddamn decades.And all the other murders and various ugly shit that he has been party to or has knowledge of. And that he actually agrees with Tara's sentiment, that the children CANNOT be raised in this environment.

I was honestly hoping that Tara would get out somehow, but yeah it is looking like either suicide or Gemmacide at this point.

Unser wanted to help her because she WAS THE ONLY GOOD PERSON LEFT. he's got that mentality where he was a piece of shit that made bad choices but still has a good heart to help a good person in need.

Then she lies, cheats, fakes a pregnancy and does horrible things. And it made him sad to see that who he thought was the last good person was just a piece of shit like them all.

Unser also has never outright don anything bad just because he is a bad person. In his own way, of trying to keep peace and keep the town safe, he made moral compromises that eventually led him down a slope into his current state. Where as clay was motivated by anger and greed, Unser was motivated by the greater good.

I'm still amazed at how shitty Jacks plan is, in regards to the IRA. They bombed the MCs place when he said "hey look, we have to get out of guns, please do your business with these people instead; thank you and goodbye". Now he wants to give up IRAs USA branch to the cops and even lump in the asians aswell, just how is this supposed to work, ever?
