“Sons Of Anarchy”: Schlock Of A High Order

Paula Szuchman oozes: ‘”Sons of Anarchy” is so damn Shakespearean. Just when I think the show can’t get any raunchier, someone starts spouting the bard, and I’m overcome. “Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks/But bears it out even to the edge of doom.” These lines from Sonnet 116 were uttered by ex-U.S. Marshal Lee Toric in Tuesday night’s episode, as he stood on the dark side of a two-way mirror. On the other side were Clay Morrow and his wife Gemma Teller, a couple for whom love has long been synonymous with doom.’ Szuchman goes on to call the show “schlock of the highest order.” I have yet to check out an episode.
