This is very typical of filming unless you are a fan of using lens flares (Star Trek and Transformers), They also put vehicles on dollies to make close up shots easier to manage and reduce accidents.

I'll watch it, but I hate watching a show and trying to read what they're saying at the same time. I hope they cut out the F%$#@ captioning.
So far it's not as entertaining as SOA. Guess I'll just have to wait and see. Can't wait to see all the hot latino a$$.

The problem I have is that some of the Spanish speakers are not Mexican and are forcing the accent, plus some are not fluent native speakers. I do hope they keep Spanish, because it adds more realism to the characters and the border crossing part.

If anything it's the notoriety of the 1% clubs that give other honest clubs a bad name; not a TV show.

Americans have had a bad taste in their mouths about bikers of all shapes and colors for a lot longer than SOA or Mayans has been around and that's probably not going to change any time soon.

What I love is this idiotic online presence of "1% aren't gangs and aren't criminals!!!" but then it's immediately followed by "if I catch you wearing anything that resembles cut or a SOA shirt I'm going to beat the **** out of you and steal your boots!!"

This.

It's also why everyone wears a skull cap helmet as well, so you can see the actors face. Lots of the young guys and "club" guys love the blacked out Simpson look. "No Face, No Case".

So it's not his kid, but it's to show she aborted his kid, or maybe she gave it up for adoption and that will come up latter. Either way, you know there is going to be some drama there. We'll also find out she has no idea her husband is a cartel drug lord.
