wandering in the middle of the "Mad Men" discussion, which I still need to see, dammit
Anybody watching Sons of Anarchy?
I'm watching SOA. I read Juliana's take on it before I saw it, and I'm surprised by how much Hamlet there is in it
I'm waiting for Clay to lean over to Jax's ear and whisper "I killed Mufasa".
Over at TWOP some folks are suggesting that Jax is a cop. But, how could he be a cop?
he doesn't have to be a cop to be an informant.
I'm totally watching, and I have M watching, too. He loves it because it's decently close to life, and I love it for that and the Hamlet parallels. We've actually argued about that, because he thinks the Hamlet's pulling the story away from reality, and I don't care, because it's not a bloody documentary.
Like I said, I'd love it if it turned out that neither Clay nor Gemma killed John (Jax's dad), but I doubt that'll happen.
There's no way Jax is a cop or an informant, not right now. This is partially real life talking, but he had absolutely no reason to question the club, even during or after prison. That's just something you do - you saw the wall with the mug shots? It's a point of pride - well, usually. (Poor Opie. M theorizes that he'll be dead soon. I think he's more likely to turn informant. And then maybe die. Laertes, anyone?) You protect the club, at all costs. He was raised in that, he believes in that, there's no way he would have turned prior to finding John's stuff.
Another unspoiled speculation: what if Jax is really Clay's son?
