While we’re well under way with Season 2 of “Mayans M.C.”, we’re still up in the air about whether we’ll get a Season 3 of the “Sons Of Anarchy” spinoff.
So far there has been no confirmation of a Season 3. But that’s no reason why nothing has been set in stone yet.
“Mayans M.C.” began September with 1.4 million viewers, so there’s definitely a solid audience for the spinoff.
Even though Kurt Sutter has been fired from “Mayans,” that shouldn’t take away from the success of the show, though it does represent a bump in the road.
Sutter recently explained why he thinks he was fired, and it had to do with a certain tasteless joke he wanted to run on the show.
He explains:
“There was supposed to be a really gnarly playground out front. Filled with debris, dangerous looking swings, sharp objects, rusty jungle gym, etc. As they exited, Coco sees EZ’s distracted and says: Lighten up, Boy Scout, and gesturing to the playground, says, ‘We’re going to Disneyland.’ EZ replies: ‘Yeah? Guess this is where Walt buried all the Jews he had killed.’ Coco comments: ‘That’s dark man…’ And exits,” Sutter says.
The backlash to that only prompted Sutter to get even more disrespectful to Disney. It kind of sounds like he wanted to get fired:
“The Walt joke was like, okay, you want something to complain about? Here you go. I knew that would at least force a few people to call their supervisors,” he said.
Maybe “Mayans M.C.” will be better off without him anyway.
