Too bad. A drama series that took time to unfold. Back to COPS, DOCTORS, & LAWYERS - Where all cases are resolved in 24 hours. If not there there's always REALITY TV for the mindless idiots happy with no resolution of anything.

It was very boring. Story line was terrible. Kurt Sutter was trying to hit it big like SOA but it missed really bad. Glad to see it go. Kurt you can do it. But please, no prequel of SOA. Don't ruin a good thing.

By the way it's only fair to note here that the show was cancelled by Kurt Sutter himself NOT the studio. Kind of admirable that the creator had the guts to not wait for the axe (pun intended, lol) and pull the plug himself. Wish more of them would.

I'm disappointed with the fact that there wasn't any new episode on 10/27/15. Great storyline Kurt is a genius! Takes time to evolve but it has me wanting more!

I completely understand why people think this is boring, I had a hard time with the pilot as well... HOWEVER, as a Sutter fan I kept at it and I am so glad I had because now it is one of my favorites! After 5 eps I went back to watch a pilot and I actually loved it. I realized that it was just a LOT to take in at once. But once you get a handle of the characters you can appreciate how rich the storytelling is. I REALLY think this has the potential to be as great as SOA so I really hope ppl give it a chance.

I have to agree with Greg here, the show definitely smacks of imitation despite a Welsh storyline. Almost as if Kurt Sutter got tired of hearing about HBO getting the Emmys for Game of Thrones hype and decided "I'm-gonna-write-an-even-better-story" and gave us this weak, blood soaked, gore stoked(burning fetuses vs GOT Joffrey's baby boy slaughtering makes imitation clearly evident) facsimile. The only thing worse on this show is Katey Sagal's accent- the woman sonds like Count Chocula! ("Jes my lay-dee I'm go-eeing to dreenk jore bla-bla-blaad) and Stephen Moyer is wasting his talent on this show. Sorry Kurt, this may not be your genre please agree to complete the Mayan project or even the first 9 but THIS SHOW IS GOING TO DIE VERY SOON A LA BOSS ON STARZ

This show is what you get when you cross the most BORING parts of Braveheart with the most BORING parts of Game of thrones.
I've watched every episode so far. I won't be wasting time and DVR space on it any longer.

Definitely not for the youngsters, and the show isn't trying to be, but this is what well thought out TV can be. Brutal, Raw, Gritty, but so is the time in which it takes place. A good man, trapped in a bad man role, striving to excise a good man's justice. Makes one realize, Goodness once usurped by Wickedness, will be a long time finding it's way back. Great job FX, keep it coming!
