Fans were under no illusions about the long-awaited finale of Sons Of Anarchy. They knew it wasn’t going to be a happy ending; showrunner Kurt Sutter has been clear from the off that the biker gang series was loosely based on the plot of Hamlet. Which, if you don’t know your Shakespeare, isn’t one of the Bard’s sunnier plays.

Even without being aware of Sons Of Anarchy’s literary forbearer, simply having watched the show for seven seasons gave you go a pretty good idea of what to expect: mayhem, murder, and truly shocking plot twists (most of which were Sutter originals rather than Shakespeare lifts) were the bread and butter of the series all the way through.

In fact – besides long shots of people riding motorcycles along freeways and a parade of cameos by former stars of The Shield – Sons Of Anarchy was principally composed of those shocking moments. The unexpected deaths, the moments of brutal gore that pushed the envelope of what you could do on TV, the conniving and backstabbing of SAMCRO.

Now that Jax has rode off into the sunset, it’s past time those shocks were given the once over, see if they were as bad as they seemed at the time. Oh, look at that, they really are. Just think of this as The Life And Death Of Sam Crow: How Sons Of Anarchy Lost All Sense Of Reason. These are the twenty most WTF Sons Of Anarchy moments.
