"I promise". Jax Teller kept promising while he saw his world crumbling before him like a castle made of sand. SoA, is a dark, depressing extremely violent and addictive series. It gets into your psyche. Mood and I dare say mental well-being. The layers of it's characters are beautifully portrayed, played and executed. Opie for one was someone whom I adored, why even the sickening Tig had made me fall in love with him when he saved the dog, injured from the illegal dog fight. How the lies and deceit of a woman can bring everything down has been a subject of consideration in almost every epics. Be it the Ramayana or the Mahabharata or the SoA for that matter. If you wish to have your pulse racing while the Harleys zoom past you chasing the bad guys, or witness the mind games that our family friends and enemies play with us- Sons of Anarchy is a must watch.

Fauda which means chaos in Arabic is not only a lethal package of action and adventure but also a nail-biting story teller that keeps we the viewers ask for more. With every moment of the series as it progresses, the insatiable hunger to watch the next episode grows exponentially. It's not only limited to secret military missions that needs precision, experience and expertise to execute but there is a human touch to all of its charecters. Whether the protagonist and his heroic team or the bad guys, on why they turned out to be the terrorists. Personally for me the scene where there was a prisoner exchange that was meant to happen and both the prisoners were blown into ashes instead, leaving behind a black soot of thick air that danced like a possessed ghost due to the wind was most remarkable. It was something unimaginable and unforgettable and a complete directorial marvel. Fauda is like one of those best seller books that you buy and can't simply put it down until you turn the next page. You laugh and cry with the charecters as you can't help but fall in love with them. All the 3 seasons are equally enjoyable to watch and for not even a single moment you will be compelled to think that the makers are dragging the story; which often happens to other lengthy series as they are prone to lose the plot when length becomes the only criteria. A highly recommended emotional action drama series. Enjoy Habibi!
