never realised till now what his second name was...same as the kid who used to play "Jai" in Tarzan..thanks.
the biker gang's Alexis Carrington,
fair character analogy, I guess.I'm going to spend time today trying to think of a better one, if there is.
While I may not be a twenty something who feels that everyone over forty should be put down, Gemma was past her prime and just a tad too old. She could strut around in tight jeans, high heeled boots, fitted black leather jackets and low cut tops all she wanted, but she was not convincing.
depends which part being convincing. Her whole dominant matriarch role and amount of screentime she takes up, her continual central importance in every club matter, is not convincing. Having some kind of biker-slut mutton dressed as lamb OTOH, is not that far fetched. As for is she any good, I don't fancy the old hooch, but it's not far fetched that she would be attractive to a range of men.
the tragedy is that we never really see Tara adopt the same kind of wardrobe..now that might have been something.
Meanwhile, almost everyone recognizes and agrees, that Sutter over-uses over-includes her, because of who she is to him, and that the show is poorer as a result.Perhaps, in one sense, having at least one female character have a high profile might, might, have been a smart move in a show which actually has a very high proportion female viewership...maybe even majority female.
Some of them may want to see sisters doing it too, some may just want to see the men...I dunno.
Bootom line is, she is not popular even as villainesses go, and there is too much Gemma.
