I love this show I love you too buddy got all f***** up in the end when Jax could have changed his life around he was strong and could have asked for help I think Opie did something to him when he died
This show was so gloriously over the top and fantastic. It really was some kind of weird mashup of soap opera, Shakespearean play and gritty biker story. It's just so great.
What I really love about the show is the way it depicts the battle of each character and their inner demons. The actors did one hell of a job cause they make you love them or hate them. At least from the main cast - not a lot leave you feeling indifferent.
You gotta love how the musical choices more times than not had a double meaning due to the singer's accent. In this case "Tell me who's that WRITING" is also "Tell me who's that RIDING", in reference of him being a member of the club. Also, with "The house of the rising Sun" which also can be heard as "The house of the rising son", which is deliberately played while Jax's spot at the top of the food chain is solified. It was the chapter of the rising son.
What got me the most? At 2:27, look at the man over Clay's shoulder. It is John Teller, Jax's Dad. The ghost of John Teller was haunting Clay that day, no doubt.
Not only is John’s ghost at the funeral but the woman in the cemetery that Jackson gives the blanket to is the ghost of the woman killed when John wrecks his bike . She appears to both Jacks and Gimma throughout the series and you meet her husband and daughter in season 7 when the daughter throws a brick into the Ice cream shop. Sitter was good at placing things right in the open that you over look. Super show.
I happened to walk into the room while my husband was watching this scene (I hadn't watched the show with him at all because he told me it was violent)...and just seeing this one scene, I was hooked. Had to start watching it from the beginning and it became an obsession!
Last verse in the Bible, John 22, verse 21, may the underserved kindness of the Lord Jesus Christ be with the holy ones. Bless we are in life. Let’s go together on this one, be kind, be humble, be strong for each other. We got this. CB.
3:10- This is one of my favorite moments of the show. Jax and Tara. Literally one word between the two of them yet they understand each other perfectly 💞 🥰
This show is so underrated every episode makes you want to watch more. I’ve watched this series 3 times so far and it’s still as entertaining as any show I’ve watched in the last decade
One of the very few shows that gets better each season. The final season was the best. We all miss Opie! I watch it every year at least once and must have seen it 20 times. Never gets old. As good as Mash, Breaking Bad, Dexter... you name it.... among the best and nothing better.
John the Apostle wrote the Book of Revelation based on a vision he had where the world ended in death and destruction. John Teller wrote his manuscript based on his vision for SAMCRO. Jax finding/reading it lead to death and destruction. They are both John the Revelator...
Probably the ONLY tv show I will never get over going off the air. I personally would've liked to have seen the series go 10 seasons, but I know that successful shows start getting too expensive to produce after 7 seasons. It's unfortunate that SOA does not get the mention when speaking of the some of the greatest TV dramas of all time. I will say that if it weren't for Sutter's crazy/over the top moments in the show (I didn't mind them, I liked them), it would have won awards all day long - instead, it got snubbed, especially by the Emmys over and over despite being one of the best critically acclaimed shows of it's day. I'm not a fan of many tv series' - there are just too many sub-par shows, but SOA was exceptionally incredible...a show that created such an incredible ensemble cast - very powerful characters, where you damn near "cared" about all of them...that's tremendously gifted writing. I watch Mayans MC now and will continue to, but that show just lacks something, it actually lacks a lot if we're comparing it to SOA - it really has no strong female character - Gemma was as much the star of SOA as Jax was. Anyway, top 10 drama series of all time, maybe top 5. We still need to see the Prequel, but the one I'm counting on is the 4th installment of the SOA universe - Mayans is solid, The First 9 will be great, but I want to see the sequel that shows Thomas and Abel all grown up - me personally, I would call that show "Sons". One last thing...tell me this show didn't give us some of the BEST MUSIC EVER!
@@adamcampos1500 This was Jax stepping out and letting everyone know he wasnt going to tow the company line. Tara in this scene also stepped out and essentially marked her territory. She claimed Jax and put Gemma and Wendy on blast. She let Wendy and all the women in Charming for that matter know that Jax was hers and she let Gemma know that she wasnt going anywhere.
@@anthonycampos8057 and “John the Revelator” song is chosen means Jax realized that John’s revelation thru the manuscript is true, after all the bullshit clay has done in this episodes and before
@@anthonycampos8057 Ive watched soa twice and I know the plot.. And it doesn't relate to this bullshit quote in any way shape or form, the guy thinks he's wise. End of story.
My theory: this is the episode where the homeless woman reveals herself to be the ghost of John Teller. The rift between Jax and Clay is beginning to deepen because Jax has discovered John Teller's writings and Jax believes Clay is responsible for Donna's death. Clay and Jax fight; Jax gets drunk. Jax has slept in and awakens in the doorway of a mausoleum with the name PATMOS above it. Biblical scholars believe the island of Patmos is where the biblical John wrote the Book of Revelations. (Jax is reading is father John's Book of Revelations in the form of the SAMCRO book). Jax encounters the homeless woman for the first time. She's wearing Jax's jacket and she gives Jax the blanket that he later uses to cover himself before he kills August Marks in the final episode (the protection from his father). The homeless woman tells Jax where to find water to clean himself. The scene where Jax washes his hands is almost like he is baptizing himself; similar to how in some religions the hands and face is cleansed before prayer. The name of the episode is "The Revelator". Jax has not only seen his father John "revealed" through his writings , but also John Teller's spirit is "revealed" to Jax in the form of the homeless woman. Just a thought. Anyway, SOA is one of my favorite TV shows of all time, along with The Shield and Breaking Bad. I can't rate one higher than the other---they ALL are my favorites AND the best shows ever televised!!!
wonderfully analysis, only one thing wrong, the creator of the series already said that the woman is Jesus, or something like that. I like to think the actor who played John later season was already John teller in the funeral, gives another perspective because he is behind Clay and Tig, sorry for the bad English I'm from Brazil
It's Brooke Putner's deceased mother Emily. In one scene Jax looks at her photo when he visits Brooke's father's home after she smashed their bikes. I believe Jax even mentioned that she looked familiar. That's because he had been seeing her as a homeless woman. She was an apparition..
Só fiquei na dúvida aq. Comecei a série agora terminei hj a primeira temporada. E os tumultos q Jacks fica em pé quem são aqueles montes com bandeiras. Eram os antigos firts9
The power of this clip dwarfed any other clip in the entire show hand down.....the writer of this clip in fact any and all who had a piece of this are gods ..
The Crypt That Jax Slept @ Was Named “Patmos”! The Name Of The Island Where The Apostle John Was Imprisoned & Received Revelations From Jesus Christ, The Messiah! Henceforth, John The Revelator 👏!
This scene kinda shows what was going to take place in the future Clay realized his biggest threat is Jax that his role of President is eventually going to be on the line Tara sealed her fate by choosing Jax and not leaving town Gemma might be able to control a lot of people but realized Tara is going to be her biggest threat
When my grandmother died I played this entire song on the way to funeral and sat by her grave listen to this as well when I went to vist her I played this while walking up to grave
Never watched a single episode of SOA until just last week I think they have done away with the show now, no longer making new episodes, correct me if I'm wrong but since episode 1 I've been hooked I watched the last 2 episodes of season 1 today opie's wife death hurt me some type of way and now after seeing the last episode, season finale, I cant wait to start season 2 and see what's in store!!!!!!

19 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? 20 Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. 21 And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. 22 And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. 23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. 24 Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. 25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. 26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. 27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. 28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, 30 and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. 31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. 32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. 33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? 34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: 35 that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. 36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. 37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! 38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. 39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Matthew 23:19-39 KJV
You Donna didn’t want Opie hanging with the club, how tf did he think it would be appropriate to have the club escort her to the graveyard, I think they did enough work getting her there..
Just finished watching Season 1, bunch o' shit happenin' in just a few episodes. I cried like a baby when Donna died, Damnit Tig! Been a fan since the show first came out back in 2008.
What i love about this episode is you vizualy see jax change. He begind with black in the beginning of the episode but when he goes to find tig and stop him hes weating grey. Lighter shade of black symbolizing how hes changing and doing things that moraly are correct. It isnt until he fights tig and beats him that he keeps his white shirt through the rest of the episode to the end. Not only that at the funeral were everyone is wearing pitch black jax comes with white complete contrast to the club. Symbolizing that for better or worse he will try to change the club.
I love that show and it's a master in the finales, but i believe that a perfect season 1 finale should have a good cliffhanger. Do you agree? I think here it isn't yet as epic as it bacame.
Nah this sets the tone for the series but little do we know that jax would become something far worse for the club then clay was Lmao.Dude straight up murders everyone (Gemma plays a big part too)
@Jason I'm rewatching the show now so I'll pay attention to that but I don't think that everytime she appeared someone died. And anyway, in SoA someone dies in almost every episode. Her being JT is the only explanation to why she only talks to Gemma and Jax.
@mxt mxt No, he appears later on too. I saw him once at the club or somewhere when he was talking in the background to other MC members. The dude was an extra and they used him later on as the face of JT.
I watch this and the shield every year religiously Kurt sutter writer on both and bought actors from the shield to SOA and the tune at the end of each episode is great from the shield and it’s VIC Mackey that ends Jax
This is a brilliant show, I love it, it's similar to breaking bad in many ways (telling a story about corruption of human soul), however I just hate seasons 4-7 (I mean my heart is just broken, how the club and family is destroyed by greed, power etc). For me SOA ends with cool season 3 happy ending. :) JOHN THE REVELATOR!
