He's the reason I couldn't stick with the show and I stopped watching around the middle of the second season. I've seen a few later eps here and there, but he definitely seemed to get worse over time. I'm curious about what he's done now.

lmfao @ people who thought that characters in an OUTLAW MOTORCYCLE GANG wouldn't turn out to be criminal assholes

(Anonymous) 2013-05-29 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I am absolutely fine with that part. It sort of goes to the point of the show. What I object to is Jax's total inability to make a decision without being drenched in huge buckets of angst.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know about OP, but personally I hate Jax because HE sees himself as something better than a criminal asshole. I love all the criminal assholes on this show. I love Tig or Chibs or Gemma, hell, I love Clay. I just don't like Jax "I'm going to angst about everything and pretend that I'm so much better than everyone else while I behave like a piece of shit" Teller.

In s5 Jax so crossed the line from anti-hero to villain protagonist, he's just still a self-righteous asshole. I LOVE this show and I will watch it until the end because I love everyone else on it, but Jax needs to die a painful death. Preferably at the hands of all the people he lied to, betrayed, manipulated or otherwise screwed over last season.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
I don't mind the lying, betrayal and manipulation but when he does all that and then gets self-righteous it's beyond annoying. He needs to grow up and realize what he's doing has removed any "rightness" he has

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
ayrt

I agree completely. I'm fine with villains who are blatantly villains (I like Clay a lot, and he's done as many horrible things as Jax). I just don't like characters who do absolutely horrible things, betray their friends, lie and manipulate, but are still self-righteous and holier-than-thou and think they have some sort of moral highground. That's the issue I have with Jax, so I think we actually agree, anon. :-)

original secret poster here

thank you for explaining exactly what i meant by this secret tbh

if jax owned his douchebaggery i'd be all for it but nooo he's Better Than Clay

whatever man

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
No caps and "whatever man"? Back to Tumblr with you. Ugh.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Except that it's right in line with the model of Hamlet, who Jax is supposed to be based on. By the time this is over, Jax will have destroyed everyone around him, still thinking he's doing it for the right reasons, even as we think he's a moron. It's just harder to watch eventually 100-some hours of the behavior and still come out remembering why we felt for the guy, rather than only having to hold on to that feeling for three-ish hours.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I never said it was bad writing or anything. SoA is an excellent show, Jax included. I just hate his guts. ;)

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
I know and I have the same problem with Hamlet.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 02:08 am (UTC)(link)

I nominate Clay and Juice. Tig and Gemma can have whatever's left.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
...as long as he's left in a coma and in the care of Tara and Wendy. Who will smother him with a pillow and then leave Charming to raise the kids as an happy lesbian couple!

(Anonymous) 2013-05-31 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
I have to admit I'm surprised by how much the show has made me like Wendy because I wasn't expecting that to happen in s1.

This thread, man. I keep meaning to get back into the show (I took a break after season 2) and this won't stop me because I never liked him to begin with, but Jesus, dude. I would have thought by now that all his whinging around in hypocritical circles would have amounted to something. Also that beard. What. He looks like a cartoon villain.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
the other characters make it worth watching imo

True. I'm hoping sexy stupid Juice and the condensed awesomeness that is Gemma are still alive and kicking for a season or two more.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
juice is my absolute fave but i have absolutely no hopes of his continued survival in season six :/ gemma probably will, though!

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
I am going to be so very disappointed if the show goes the easy way out with his character.

(Anonymous) 2013-05-30 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
shit idk how to do spoiler hide things so SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER DO NOT READ PAST THIS POINT IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE LAST SEASON SPOILERRRRR

my biggest fear is jax telling tig he'll give him the SAA patch back if he takes care of juice (and tig actually doing it)

sutter tweeted that jax has forgiven juice and i 100% do not believe that

I know nothing about this show or the character, but I love the quote from Mrs. White - getting Clue flashbacks reading this. :)
