The
Sons of anarchy DVD (known by the acronym Samcro) are a very "designer" kind of motorcycle gang and seem to conform to all the tidy rules of American television.
The Tribe DVD They are gangsters with hearts of gold who look like they got their leather patches at Armani. This gang keep meth traffickers and drug dealers out of their town. Gritty realism, huh? Sons of Anarchy is shooting its fourth season in the United States but here, TV3 are considerately starting it from the pilot episode which begins with the torching of a Samcro gun-assembly warehouse and the theft of guns by a rival club, the Mayans.
bones DVD Apart from the coiffure issues, Sons of Anarchy is also unremittingly grim. It got some good reviews by critics who mainly raved about Segal's "pedal to the metal" performance but I'm with Robert Bianco in USA Today who said, as with The Sopranos,
MI5 DVDwe are once again digging into a criminal underground society that operates under its own rules and considers itself a family apart. "The question Sons fails to answer is why we would want to do that." It is really hard to connect with characters who have no sense of humour.
true blood DVDI don't know anything about bikie gangs, but my impression of New Zealand ones is that they are hard case and like a laugh when they're not out raping and pillaging.
