Unfortunately, in its final season, it appears we're now past the expiration date. You never want your favorite series to end, especially one that that hooks you with drama as edgy as this has been. You want it to continue as long as it STAYS good. The show has always been about Jax, the protagonist in a modern-day retelling of a classic Shakespearean tragedy. And part of the allure has been the connection the audience has with Jax, an anti-hero we root for as he strives to keep his moral compass as injustice after injustice pounds on his soul. His son.

I guess its true what they say, "all good things must come to and end", but doesn't mean that it should. This show is undoubtedly the best show on TV PERIOD. I know that if you're going to go out, you should do it while you're on top and this cast and the writers of this show are amazing. There will never be another show like this ever. I wish the cast the best of everything and hope to see them again, because they are so talented. My Tuesday nights will never be tge same. I am an SOA fan for life.
