Days of December
Last night, one of my favorite shows ended its 5th season. Sons is my $hit! I’m so annoyed that it only ever carries out 13 episodes. But I know it’s because they pack each one with so much heart, angst, foreshadowing, and brotherhood. I think what I like most is the fact that these actors have sunken deep into their roles and the true brotherhood of an MC.
When Opie got killed off in the beginning of the season, it was a huge shift in the show and for Ryan Hurst, the actor who play him. Sure it left him open to pursue other roles (see him in the upcoming new show King & Maxwell on TNT), however he mourned Opie the same way we all did. With no other way to move past his character, Hurst gathered up the crew and they proceeded cutting off Opie’s beard. I can understand the emotion and grief. We miss him too..
Or what about the fact that Clay has evaded an inevitable death by Jax and has been ousted from the MC… The lengths that Charlie Hunnam went through in order to make that real is another example of why this show is so gut wrenching and captivating. This is the interview explaining what how Hunnam achieved this…

The other side I want to point out is their commitment to giving back. For years, this ensemble has donated time, monies, and goods on numerous charitable efforts. The most recent, Hogs for Heart.

Bottom line, the cast and crew have become a family and will forever be intertwined with the experiences and memories of SOA. I know I won’t forget it…especially with him to remind me:
Until next September…SAMCRO LIVES!!

Days of December
December days are full of joy…like today I am so ending the day writing, editing, watching some housewives, & eating tamales.
Before you ask…no they’re not homemade tamales, yes I still like the frozen bagged ones, no I don’t know how to make them, and yes I want someone to make them for me. Cholula Out…
Xoxo, Di
