15 Nastiest Ever Moments In Sons Of Anarchy

Let's hear it for TV's most gruesome show, and its most wince-inducing moments.

FX€™s Sons Of Anarchy, a violent melodrama about the deeds of a notorious (fictional) Californian biker chapter, has been one of the bloodiest and most brutal television shows in living memory. Never backward about coming forward, iconoclastic showrunner Kurt Sutter seems to take a deep-seated satisfaction in horrifying and fascinating his audience in equal measure. With the sixth season finale a nerve-shredding memory and the seventh and last season coming up in September, you just know that things aren€™t going to end well for Jackson Teller and his increasingly weary and burned out crew of outlaw misfits. The biggest question on everyone€™s mind right now, mere weeks away from the feature length season premiere, is exactly how bad is €˜bad€™ going to be? We€™ve seen some horrible things on this show €“ bloodthirsty deaths, emotionally scarring deaths, holy-crap-did-they-actually-do-that deaths. A whole hell of a lot of death, basically. But hey €“ let€™s not forget the torture, the dismemberment, the sexual assaults, the many, many beatings and shootings. Actually, we could probably do with forgetting a couple of those. But not straight away €“ because here and now we proudly (and a little squeamishly) present to you the 15 nastiest ever moments in the history of Sons Of Anarchy - violence, heavy emotional resonance, gore and all. There are spoilers here for seasons one through six, naturally €“ and if you€™re of a delicate constitution, take a deep breath before continuing€
