You were right.

Um, well, Season 3 is less GTA Biker and more character development, but I got annoyed at how long it took plot points to develop, how much time they spent on not entertaining characters (Tara) and there was some unrealistic/stupid drama in Ireland when they finally got there. But the last episode of the season was so [expletive] good that it made it worth it to me. It was definitely the weakest season to date.

Definetly.
Is there some unnecessary action, sure.
But there's several good storylines, some amazing scenes, and great acting.
Jax and his Mom are great as usual. After watching the season, you'll be so amazed, you'll have a "Glasgow Smile". :wink:

I agree, liked the first episode [MOD NOTE: OF WILFRED] and will continue to watch. Not sure if it's going to get a big enough following to last though.

Merged the Wilfred thread. I Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Mad Men etc don't get their own threads, Wilfred doesn't either.;
