The sons deserves more than it's one vote so far!

For those of you who don't know much about it, some links to the Official site, and some reviews here.

It's been one of the few TV things I've enjoyed for a while. It does get a little cheesy in places, but there is a lot of good stuff.

It's only just starting it's second season in the US, which will be why not very many of you will have heard of it.

A litte extract from the official site:

'FX's original series, Sons of Anarchy, is an adrenalized drama with darkly comedic undertones that explores a notorious outlaw motorcycle club's (MC) desire to protect its livelihood while ensuring that their simple, sheltered town of Charming, California remains exactly that, Charming. The MC must confront threats from drug dealers, corporate developers, and overzealous law officers. Behind the MC's familial lifestyle and legally thriving automotive shop is a ruthless and illegally thriving arms business. The seduction of money, power, and blood.

Jackson 'Jax' Teller (Charlie Hunnam) is the MC's vice-president, whose loyalty to the club is tested by his growing apprehension for its lawlessness; Gemma Teller Morrow (Katey Sagal) is Jax's force-of-nature mother; and Clarence 'Clay' Morrow (Ron Perlman) is Jax's stepfather and MC president. The triangle of Mother, Son, and Stepfather will ultimately reveal the dark secrets in this family's past and the lengths they will go to protect their sins'


The tension in the first season comes when Jax, the son of the original founder of the club, finds some memoirs written by his dead father. They advocate the club as a kind of law abiding peacful commune, rather than the gun running gang that they are, and begins to undermine Clay, the new boss.

A couple of good scenes involved the cutting off of a chaps balls and popping them in the mail to the father of the girl he raped, classy, and Jax finding a chap sat on his Harley, he then beats him to a pulp and slips one to his lady. More classy.

Lots of guns, violence, girls on poles and moral tales. Really is worth a watch!
