Loved how you had John Martsons theme in the background. This show was basically a present day red ded redemption story. One of my all time favorite shows!
@@mattlawrence1932 explain your theory? Cause I’m referring to the actual storyline. GTA story doesn’t compare to SOA imo. No shit they don’t have cars and present day things. Which is why I said a “present day red dead story”. A story of a good man caught in the middle of his gang and mess of shit and how he’s loyal to a fault… more comparable to rdr2 tbh
Jax Teller is also a walking tragedy. Nothing but pain and misery followed this man. The pain that this man endured throughout the entire series was inhuman. This club destroyed him and everything he held dear. It took away his father, his mother, his brother, his best friend, associates, and the love of his life. By the end of the series, he was nothing more than a bag of bones.
And in trying to change the club for the better the only thing he did was that he became the man he hated most. Just like his father, he became the poison of the club both J.T and Jax knew that and that’s why they went out the way they went out. Some of the most beautiful writing Ive ever seen and one of the most criminally underrated shows of all time
@matt0771 you have to remember, there were three Jax's in this series. There was Jax pre Opies death, there was Jax post Opies death, and there was Jax post Tara's death. Opies death unleashed his inner fury and Tara's death was the fatal blow to him. All of season 7, he seemed like a guy who was bleeding out.
Watching Jax lose his humanity and the struggle between morals and survival and the things he does to preserve and regrow his soul is what makes him profoundly human
This video... brought me to tears because Jax Teller may be a tragic character, but the most outstanding protagonist character of all shows I have ever seen. Other shows have awesome protagonists, but Jax was crafted so so well. I will never forget seeing how season 3 ended because of Jax's brilliant mind at work. I was in shock when i saw him take his throne as President. Seeing him loss Opie was just tragic and seeing Tara lifeless and bloody on the ground broke my heart. And nonetheless he still wanted to make things right for his boys and his club, even at the very end. Thank you so so much for making this wonderful and low down of Jax Teller with this video .
You’ve done the description well, but you’ve gone a long way for making people feel it. I watched this when it was on air and in between several times since. You’re a true fan and that makes me happy, RIP Opie.
I was really hoping that Jax would break the cycle and manage to avoid what his father feared he could become. There were so many moments I was begging Jax to find a way out and take his wife and children to somewhere else.
Dude thank you for talking about this show because this and Mayans are so sleepy in my RUclips reviewers.. Jax is just a good character to see change and develop
I’m so glad someone agrees King Arthur was criminally underrated. Like many, SOA introduced me to Charlie, but man, between The Gentlemen and King Arthur he really shows he’s a hidden gem. Great video, Sir, thanks for covering it.
Bro you are really talented at this. I love stuff like this so I watch a bunch of analysis of film, series, games. You are easily one of the best out of all of the guys I have listened to.
8:48 Love the analysis! A long time too late, but just wanted to mention that Opie didn’t leave the club to be with his family. He was in prison doing time for the club and tried to earn straight because Dana didn’t want to raise the kids on her own again. Great video man!
I think we all forget how smart Jax is. Just with little details he’s able to figure stahl out for not having info in season 2. While he does have anger issues. He slowly becomes more and more ruthless and cunning. He’s a love child of clay and Gemma. He only had the morals of his father till each death hit him. From season 4 onwards the guy had died honestly
We need that Gemma video. Rewatching Sons now, and seeing her continuing on and on to not only include herself into her sons and Clay's Club business contineus to change Jax as well
Three things really brought me into this show: 1. Charlie Hunnam's convincing portrayal of Jax Teller. Definitely one of my favorite instances of a Brit playing an American; others would include Hugh Laurie as Greg House, Idris Elba as Stringer Bell, and Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange 2. The fact that Jax happens to be a high school dropout 3. In the Japanese dub, he's voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa
I love how "American Venom" fits so perfectly also the resemblence from arthurs personality to journaling to jack being kidnapped and the commraderie is so similar
I wish I could say it was an artistic decision but tbh I was just trying to avoid catching a copyright claim 😅 most video game music is usually ok to use.
great video, only thing is opie wasnt "out," he was fresh from prison and had been trying to please donna. he never stopped being a full patch, when he refers to being let back in, he means to the illegal activity to get paid
Great video! For someone who is such a big fan of Jax I can’t recommend the show Viking enough if you have not already seen it. The main character feels like if Jax grew up in a Viking era
Jax was literally the definition of “cursed from birth” he lost his dad, in a way his brother, his best friend and his wife and had to kill his own mother because of this club
I cried like a baby when Abel was Kidnapped. My wife was pregnant with my son at the time. It felt so close to home. I named my son Jaxon. We call him Jax ❤ SoA is my all time favorite show. I was 19 back then. I’m 26 now. The show helped me grow into a good man and a good father. Great video man!
your channel should have so many more views. ive watched a few of your videos now, and the Juice(Judas) one is next. you have a great mind for analysis.
Yo can you make some videos on the Mayans, this one is awesome and itd be pretty cool to see an analysis of coco and Lenny, and EZ's upward and downward spiral or the cartels
SELFLESSNESS !?! His last act yet again was at the expense of not only an innocent but a civilian meaning completely outside of the 1%er the victim being the Truck Driver !!!!!! He may have lost his CDL license, career, and mental health ! JAX IS ON A BIKE GAS UP AND HIT A CLIFF SIDE WALL OR THE COUNTLESS INANTIMATE OBJECTS HE PASSED Lol!!!!
Love your analysises. I know you mentioned breaking bad as either your favorite show or best character (don't remember which of these two was the one you said). I hope you do some analysises of those characters as well!
It would he nice if when it detected something like art money it would just deny you access with a message that says "we detected a chest program running on your computer, turn it off before logging into destiny".
I love this show so much. I take alot of heat for this, i am coming up on my 50th yr as a biker. Its more true then fake. Thou it dose haves moments. If you ride, you know the west coast is alot differant then the east. But what happens there come here anyway. When i started back in the early. 70s , it was about riding free and being brothers, it sadens me to see whhat it comes to. To many polatics and whos badder and fighting. One day this country is gonna fall ,and we need to bond together for the good of all. Have alot more to say but this isnt the place. Much love and respect to ALL of you, thanks for doing the best read on this show!
Season 3 has the absolute best ending of the whole series. It was incredible how that plan fell together and it blew me away as I watched it for the first time.
It’s been 10 years since this show ended, I think it’s time for a sequel series. Showing Abel as a club member and Thomas as a doctor following in his mother’s footsteps. I know this shits on Jax’s sacrifice but it would call back to Gemma handing the ring to Abel telling him his future is the club. Thoughts ?
Damn i never thought about that, but that Juice betrayel was the thing that gave Jax the idea and was the stone that brought it rolling, to take black members, shows some respect for Juice from Jax He was a traitor, but Jax understood from where it came. You could say that Juice left a legacy in SAMCRO, that he will never know.
I stopped listening around the season 3 take. Someone tell me if he's worth listening to. Leaving Abel with a clean cut family is exactly what Jax would do. He's been scared of his life tainting Abel since before the kid was born with his fears coming true in the last season. That was him trying to save his son. Not abandon him.
It was the only opinion I disagreed with, so you'll enjoy the rest LOL but yes I agree he didn't understand that part. Jax has tried to do the right thing with his son ever since he had him. He at first pushed away Tara (or tried to rather LOL) for the same reason. He every quickly learned how many lives he actually affects, and knew that he had to do right by all of them, one way or another. And then to find out that his father was trying to come here because he was trying to do the same thing with Jax himself? It made him have a moment of fear. Rightfully so.
5:33 I’m really late to this party. However the way things are explained are fantastic! Seriously, Jax is literally rutterless and whatever decision he makes is going to be the wrong decision. All because nobody knows how to make the right decisions.
Man finally. There isn't neatly enough videos that do deep dives into this show or its characters. It's criminal ally underrated
I can't believe there's only 1 SoA full series retrospective on RUclips.
It’s just a series that hasn’t reached THAT type of audience. I think with time it’ll eventually catch more attention.
@@ramencat788It’s underrated lowkey
@@mozzbyy8616That’s how I feel about “Dark” from Netflix. These shows would blow up if new gen found them but they still have their strong following.
Are we not a special part of society? Come on man.
Loved how you had John Martsons theme in the background. This show was basically a present day red ded redemption story. One of my all time favorite shows!
Fuck I thought I was the only one who noticed it also it was nice because it also an amazing Shakespeare tale
It's so fitting
No it's more like a GTA story!!!! It's got the vehicles , the side missions , the gangs , it's literally GTA as a TV show

@@anthonycampos8057perfect put opie changed him forever and after Tara bro couldn’t give a fuck if he lived or died at that point
Watching Jax lose his humanity and the struggle between morals and survival and the things he does to preserve and regrow his soul is what makes him profoundly human
Not much Sons videos out there so this is well appreciated. In my top 5 shows ever
Dude, you’re my hero. I’ve been waiting for someone to do an in-depth analysis of Sons of Anarchy for a long time. ❤😭🙏🏾

Came upon your channel as a lover of ALL thing SOA, love.. LOVE your take on everything. TY for keeping our fav show alive !
Dude thank you. I can't find much soa content on utube. Thank you and keep up the great work.
I was really hoping that Jax would break the cycle and manage to avoid what his father feared he could become. There were so many moments I was begging Jax to find a way out and take his wife and children to somewhere else.
Donna's death is pretty much what causes the butterfly effect for the whole series
Dude thank you for talking about this show because this and Mayans are so sleepy in my RUclips reviewers.. Jax is just a good character to see change and develop
This is a great video man, this channel deserves more credit. Great work!
One of the most thoughtful videos ive seen on youtube, great job friend, keep it going, id love to see a Clay analysis!
Thank you! A Clay video is on my long list of things to do so I'll do it eventually 😅
I’m so glad someone agrees King Arthur was criminally underrated. Like many, SOA introduced me to Charlie, but man, between The Gentlemen and King Arthur he really shows he’s a hidden gem. Great video, Sir, thanks for covering it.
Watching the innocent Chinese guy get tortured by Jax was the sad as hell man. It made me hate Gemma all the more.
Bro you are really talented at this. I love stuff like this so I watch a bunch of analysis of film, series, games. You are easily one of the best out of all of the guys I have listened to.
Your review is amazing. Please keep it up.
At 26:02 that aspect of Jax learning from his enemies is what I loved about his character in that season . Dope arc.
8:48 Love the analysis! A long time too late, but just wanted to mention that Opie didn’t leave the club to be with his family. He was in prison doing time for the club and tried to earn straight because Dana didn’t want to raise the kids on her own again. Great video man!
He did indeed leave the club to be with his family, *after* doing time for the club. You're both right.
@ The only reason I said he didn’t “leave” was bc he never got patched out. He was still a club member, he just didn’t want to do the outlaw parts
Awesome video man!! One of the best interpretations of Jax Teller that I’ve seen!!
Oh snap another banger.
I think we all forget how smart Jax is. Just with little details he’s able to figure stahl out for not having info in season 2. While he does have anger issues.

This is really good man
Jax Teller was not as criminal as that view count/video quality ratio
The views will go up. But i gotta make sure the quality goes up with them! 😁
@@JoshFleeks66Get your audio lined up better then brother.
We need that Gemma video. Rewatching Sons now, and seeing her continuing on and on to not only include herself into her sons and Clay's Club business contineus to change Jax as well
I'm currently in my 4th re-watch. I found this video at the perfect time. Thank you!!
Nice video bro. There are not many videos of this heavy and well constructed character
Three things really brought me into this show:
1. Charlie Hunnam's convincing portrayal of Jax Teller. Definitely one of my favorite instances of a Brit playing an American; others would include Hugh Laurie as Greg House, Idris Elba as Stringer Bell, and Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange
2. The fact that Jax happens to be a high school dropout
3. In the Japanese dub, he's voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa
Watching it with Japanese dub sounds really cool
Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead
I love how "American Venom" fits so perfectly also the resemblence from arthurs personality to journaling to jack being kidnapped and the commraderie is so similar
Great job man. Jax might be my favourite character of all the great TV shows. I appreciate this work man, awesome ❤❤
I still don't fully understand the Mr mayhem vote as far as jury
I appreciate that you used red dead redemption music lol. You have good taste in games as well as shows i see.
I wish I could say it was an artistic decision but tbh I was just trying to avoid catching a copyright claim 😅 most video game music is usually ok to use.
My man… You CRUSHED this.
Can tell how much work went into it. Well done.
I’ll be sure to watch the others. Juice next. Keep it up 👊🏻
Holy smokes this was a great analysis I hope you do more
great video, only thing is opie wasnt "out," he was fresh from prison and had been trying to please donna. he never stopped being a full patch, when he refers to being let back in, he means to the illegal activity to get paid
Yeah now that I think about it, that's true. Whoops 😅
@@JoshFleeks66 99.99% is still an a+, nice bike btw, ride a vtx 1800 myself
Great video! For someone who is such a big fan of Jax I can’t recommend the show Viking enough if you have not already seen it. The main character feels like if Jax grew up in a Viking era
Thanks for the recommendation!
I have never seen not 1 episode...however...this video...CHEF'S KISS...subscribed...about to add this series to my weekend lineup
Did you ever decide to watch it? Shows excellent
Wow way to spoil the show.
Nice job on looking at the character of Jax!!
Love this show and great video!!
This was fantastic. Love the Shakespearean tragedy angle, really well written and delivered deep dive. Can’t wait to watch more of your work 😁
Sons of Anarchy is a great series and a great story. And it’s worth to watch it all over again
It makes my top ten shows list easily
Currently watching Mayans MC & am about to start my fourth complete rewatch of SOA
Great Analysis man, subbed.
Amazing video.
Thank you 🙏

I watched the entire series. I love how you explained that . And it makes complete sense.
Love this shit man!! Best show out there! Glad to see someone on RUclips talking in depth about it! 🙏🔥
Outstanding video!! That's all I can say.❤
Love SOA! Great job and can’t wait to see more
Just found this channel. Fantastic analysis. You have a new subscriber. Keep up the great work.
This is such an amazing journey, told beautifully. Hell of a video, friend! Needless to say I've subbed :)
Liked, subscribed... brilliant analysis.

Just like he thanked Charlie at the end; thanks for bringing this summary to life. This is such a good show and now I know why; Kurt sutter.
Great video man
Just found this after my 4th watch of the show, amazing video! I was wondering if you had seen Mayans and if you plan to make any videos on that.
Did i detect the oldboy hallway fight soundtrack in this video? It fits.
Greatest show ever! Thanks for this!
Charlie actually walks like that irl. I’m sure he may have exaggerated it a bit, but he talks about his walk in multiple interviews.
Phenomenal Job
Yo can you make some videos on the Mayans, this one is awesome and itd be pretty cool to see an analysis of coco and Lenny, and EZ's upward and downward spiral or the cartels

Jax's look is pure cali 100%, lived here my whole life and you'll see one piece or another of his outfit on almost anyone you pass by in public
We dont get our parents until we become them.
Can you also do a deep dive into Ez reyes?

Opie’s death was so hard to watch. It was gut wrenching
In all the years since, there's one episode title in all these years I've never forgotten: Laying Pipe
Fuck you man.....I really didn't need my ptsd kicking in...it's still too soon.
great vid

Season 3 has the absolute best ending of the whole series. It was incredible how that plan fell together and it blew me away as I watched it for the first time.
Can you do a character analysis on opie
I need more of these
I hated what they did to Juice in the later Seasons, he was my favourite character on the show.
Me too, I had a hard time with that
It’s been 10 years since this show ended, I think it’s time for a sequel series. Showing Abel as a club member and Thomas as a doctor following in his mother’s footsteps. I know this shits on Jax’s sacrifice but it would call back to Gemma handing the ring to Abel telling him his future is the club.
Thoughts ?
I’m sure you meant 10* years but the creator has said before that he did plan for a spin off/sequel about Abel and Thomas! 😊
Damn i never thought about that, but that Juice betrayel was the thing that gave Jax the idea and was the stone that brought it rolling, to take black members, shows some respect for Juice from Jax
He was a traitor, but Jax understood from where it came.
