I have this habit of not getting hooked on some shows until long after they start. Then I play catch up. For probably the first month, I totally ignored The Sopranos because I thought it had to do with music. Most. embarrassing.thing.ever! Justified? Didn’t even hear of it until Season 2 and was hooked. Watched Season 1 on the replays, then watched Season 3.
So it is with Sons of Anarchy. I only started watching it last season. I went hunting for it on Hulu, and couldn’t find it. So imagine how happy I was to find out FX was showing it from the beginning on early Wednesday mornings! Three shows at a time. I love my DVR. Except, I didn’t find out until after the first week. So I’m still missing the first three shows. But, I’ll be caught up on the three seasons I missed by the time Season 5 starts in September.
It was announced last week that Harold Perrineau (Oz, Lost) is joining the show as Damon Pope, a former drug dealer whose daughter “got got” by Tig last season. I’m thinking this won’t end well. He probably snapped, is going to attack Tig & get taken out. Just please let him live through most (a few?) shows!
Not only that, but Jimmy Smits is coming too! He’s cast as bad guy Nero. Mega tattoos and a mentor to Jax. Wow, like Jax doesn’t already have enough mentors? Not that I’m complaining. Since NBC screwed him over (like they do with other shows) on Outlaw, I’m just glad to see him back on screen. He brought the crazy on Dexter. Can’t wait until SAMCRO comes back in September!
Ready for more confessions? Same thing happened with Breaking Bad. I only started watching last season. I’d love AMC if they would show the past seasons before it returns. Pretty please? I’m currently watching The Wire on HBO GO from Season 1. Um, WHAT? I saw a few seasons off and on, but I missed a few too. I never watched Entourage, so that’s another one in the playlist. Stop rolling your eyes, I watch enough crap as it is. There really aren’t enough hours in the days to be able to look at it all.
