Look. I might be completely crazy but hear me out. I believe the entire FIRST SEASON HAS BEEN ALTERED from the original. Memory of course is not reliable (which they counted on but they weren't counting on mine) but I believe they had no choice but to make major changes to the first season to make future episodes - and the Mayans spin-off possible. Recall thinking how perfectly the first two seasons worked and made sense when watching the first time around 2012. You could tell that the creators had those two seasons worth of story lines worked out to a T going in. But I also remember thinking it was almost too "wrapped up" to have anywhere to go...and then the 3rd season definitely dipped in quality of writing. Which is where I left off.
Granted it's basically been 10 years but there are entire characters and plot lines in the first season this time around that I have absolutely no recollection of whatsoever. I'm saying these mfs have gone back after the fact and changed things. What's also interesting is there is a Screen Rant article conveniently titled "10 Things From Season 1 of Sons of Anarchy You Completely Forgot Happened." Lol. All they do is change a bunch of things, destroy the originals, print an article on the internet - and voila - like it never happened.
ALL the things in that article are ALL the exact things I don't remember. Just saying. The stalker for one example. That dude did not exist before. The African American Sheriff and the whole Mayans beef in the first episode was not a thing. But all these alterations made the show more PC for one thing but also opened up story lines for the future. I'm telling you man. Call me crazy. But I wouldn't put it past "free thinking" network executive types. After all, we're all sooooo stupid right?
There are no truths anymore. Further proof. Also? If you really wanna get nuts? I first noticed this phenomenon with The Sopranos! Oh! Oh! 'Whaaaa?' That's right. F wit me y'all. F wit me.
