Oh, Maggie. You left Mad Men for this?
Seriously, I made it halfway through. Visually it’s powerful. And Ron Perlman. I crush so hard on Ron Perlman. Hamm for sex, Perlman forever, y’know? Big, teddy bear, smart, mean yet cuddly and monumentally tall. He is my ideal man. And watchable on-screen. Love him without prosthetics; you hardly ever see that.
But it’s so completely not enough.
I thought, Maggie Siff in a biker show, that might be interesting. Except she’s not one of the bikers, she plays a doctor (inthehospitalwherethestar’sbabymightdieandtheyhaveapast). Totally not against type. So, less interesting.
And even with a Ron and a Maggie and motorcycles and violence and a big fat scary Jewish biker guy, just not interesting.
Oh well.

Deborah, you and I are in complete agreement on this one. It's got a decent cast, and an interesting premise, but the show did nothing for me. I might give it two more episodes because Katie Sagal as a kind of Lady MacBeth on a Harley is, well, intriguing. And Ron Perlman. Who doesn't like Ron Perlman. But otherwise? Meh.
It was painful to watch her in a role that doesn’t give her good material to work with.
Well, Miss Siff made me wanna watch the show. After finding out Peg Bundy, er, Katey Sagal was also a star, I had to watch! I thought the show was OK….
(But I still miss Maggie on Mad Men! No doubt!)
Judging from the reviews I have read, I think that Maggie Siff might have a steady job as a cast member of "SONS OF ANARCHY". Most of the critics seemed to love it.
