Ha, quirky cameo that is, cheers i'll try remember to look for it, just stuck s01e01 on now, looks gritty, i love gritty shows. Also the reason i dislike sons of anarchy, i watched one episode and all their clothes were designer rough looking and they manicures and perfect bleached teeth. I am just constantly aware it is a heavily scripted show and could never get into on that basis alone.It's the best tv show of all time. Season 4 is stunning. Watch out for snoop buying a nail gun in home depot.

You explain EXACTLY why I never bothered with 'SoA'!!
And, may I say, more eloquently!!!
Then sadly for you both you have missed out on a fantastic series.
Meh.
I can live with that.
Only managed 1 episode last night as i was pretty tired and would have never made another episode, however....what a fucking good show, it is gritty and dirty, i love it.Pretty jealous of the people who haven't watched The Wire yet. Watched it through 3 times, one of the smartest, deepest, most engrossing TV shows i've seen, always notice something i didn't before.
Also watched the West Wing again a year ago, interesting how many of the subjects and story lines predict or pre-empt actual things that went on to happen. Supposedly the Matt Santos character was based on or at least influenced by a young Obama.
They failed to predict Trump though.
I think because many of the supporting actors and some of the main ones are from that area and have been involved in the gangs and drugs, even done jail time etc, it helps gives it that a genuine edge.Only managed 1 episode last night as i was pretty tired and would have never made another episode, however....what a fucking good show, it is gritty and dirty, i love it.
Note: Sense8 is now being released as i speak.
Is that right? no shit man that is cool as fuck, wel the authenticity is, not the fact they have been to jail. I can't stand shows that have promise but mess it up for example an old age drama will see the queen etc in 20th century perfect makeup with a french polish on their nails or stuff like that. Things like that seem to stick out like a sore thumb and take away from the show, for me at any rate.I think because many of the supporting actors and some of the main ones are from that area and have been involved in the gangs and drugs, even done jail time etc, it helps gives it that a genuine edge.
TBF SoS wasn't that good, it's a decent watch, but not up there with the Wire, Shield, etc.Then sadly for you both you have missed out on a fantastic series.
I am going to print that out and put it on my wall boss as nobody will ever pay me such a compliment ever again i doubt hehe.You explain EXACTLY why I never bothered with 'SoA'!!

Unfortunate also, that its popularity meant it dragged on 3 seasons longer than it should have.

Ahh gotcha, had to google that tbh as i read your post just after a smoke from my nice City blue hookah :-D as i understood it in my current state Snoop was actually a woman in real life and his real name was not in fact Calvin Broadus but Felicia haha. You should have seen my face in the long time it took to register xDIt's not a cameo, snoop is Felicia Pearson, real life gangster and one of the baddest women ever!
