Around the Remote: End of ‘SOA’
Don’t miss
“Sons of Anarchy” series finale: Time to put a fork in it. After seven seasons drenched in blood and tears, the savage Shakespearean motorcycle saga takes its final ride with a 90-minute episode written and directed by creator Kurt Sutter. So what will become of Jax Teller (Charlie Hunnam), the ill-advised outlaw who went on a vicious vengeance quest after his wife was murdered? We don’t expect it to be pretty. 10 p.m. Tuesday, FX.
