Mayans MC

Post by Thurston »

Anyone watching this spin-off of SOA on FX? There are 2 episodes out, I watched the first one and think I'll be hooked. Sons Of Anarchy was a little cheesy, but the characters, look, plot twists, motorcycles, guns, music, etc made it a must-see series for me.

Pretty excited about this I've been needing a new show to watch. <Might check out Jack Ryan too.

I will probably check it out but the last few seasons of SoA were so bad I'm now skeptical.

I liked the first episode, but I couldn't keep track of the names yet.

I liked SOA, so I'm watching this too.

I agree about SOA. I feel like shows like that should last 1 season less than they do, and end on a high note. The last season and end of SOA was so unmemorable.

Am I mistaken and SOA is actually not trashy and stupid?

No, it's for sure those things, but it's also pretty fun, at least the first couple of seasons.

Duly noted. I like a lot of the actors in it and I am down with other trashy-premised shows :lol: Just something about the whole biker gang thing that doesn't jive with me :idk: Might check it out at some point when the show hole resurfaces.

Guy at work told me this is finally out. I have been checking for what seems like years now but had forgotten about it.

I always thought this one was going to be better than SOA - Kurt Sutter worked with Hardcore Gang Leader Elgin James to get some street vibe going on if I am not mistaken.

Edit: Warning - There is a spoiler alert here. :nlisten:







Just watched the 3 episodes and :thu: I like. So far even more thtn I liked SOA but we will see how it plays out.

The one thing I really dislike is that how the brother/prospect is an informant. What makes it worse is that they made that known immediately. No suspense there. I have a feeling he will eventually burn the cops and stay with the club. Oh well, I will absolutely keep watching. I am curious to see if James will make an appearance or have a part in the soundtrack as he is a musician as well.

I heard they're going to brawl with The Fonzies MC in a coming episode.

I bet Arthur wins the dance off.

I look forward to the season where they have to go to another country for an extended period and change the theme tune accordingly

SOA changed the theme tune when they went to Ireland? I don't remember that. What did they do throw some elbow pipes in there?!? :lol:

They also decorated everywhere like a 1960's council estate.
Doilies under absolutely everything and CRT TVs that were manually tuned. Obviously none of the Irish chapter had the chops to nip into currys and steal a plasma.
