Sons of Anarchy

S.O.A. is a tv series filled with betrayal, love, loss, and bikes. The reason I bring this show up isn't to promote it, but seriously you should watch it every Tuesday on FX, but to show that there are plot elements from Hamlet in various pop culture entertainment. The vice president's, Jackson "Jax" Teller (played by Charlie Hunnam), dad (former club president John "J.T."Teller) was killed when the current president, Clay Morrow, wanted to start running guns. Jax hints to the fact that he suspects foul play but only his fiancee knows that there is something wrong with the whole situation. She, Tara Knowles, suspects Clay and Jax's mother, Gemma Teller, of getting J.T. murdered, you see Gemma and Clay hooked up when J.T. went M.I.A. for a while. At first Jax really did want to get Clay out of the club and change things but now that he has a family his priorities have changed. It makes me wonder, if Hamlet&Ophelia had already been married and had children, would he still be so dead set on killing Claudius?
