The season premiere started 10 days after Tara's death, "Sons of Anarchy" season 7 returns to FX with an all-time high that drew 6.2 million viewers at 10 P.M. on Sept. 9. Still mourning for his wife's death, Jax (Charlie Hunnam) briefly served his time in prison and organized a porn party just to get close to the person he thinks is responsible for putting a meat fork in his wife's head.

Season 7 opens with Jax in prison beating someone up and cutting up a Neo-Nazi snitch before pulling his teeth out, so he can make an impression on a white supremacist, Ron Tully. Played by Marilyn Manson, Tully is Aryan Brotherhood's shot-caller who will form an alliance with SAMCRO's president.

Thanks to Gemma (Katey Sagal), who convinces him that the Chinese MC put a hit on the mother of his children, Jax will slowly turn himself as a Grim Reaper just to get his revenge. "The night Tara was killed I was coming over to Jax's house. When I got close I saw someone in a Mercedes waiting in the driveway and this guy runs by the side of the house coming by the back door. I went real slow when I passed by. Got a real good look -- it was him. Chinese killed Tara," Gemma told Jax as she tried to cover up her crime.

Inviting both the Mayans and the Chinese to his party, the tattooed leader took the Triad to his house and tied him in the kitchen where Tara was brutally murdered and proceeds to torture him. "You killed my wife. What you did to her, how you did it, I'm going to make sure you feel that," he said in the show's first episode of the season, and ends his interrogation with a meat fork in the innocent guy's head.

A premiere packed with blood, mayhem and mourning, the one-hour and 47-minute highly anticipated premiere is the show's highest premiere in all seven seasons. Compared to last year's premiere, SOA season 7 gained 5 per cent more viewers with 4.1 million viewers in the 18-49 demographic, according to Nielsen.

"With a little luck, Sons of Anarchy's final season will follow the same sort of trajectory as AMC's harrowing drama Breaking Bad," Cinema Blend reports. "Like the recently ended meth drama, Sons of Anarchy's ratings have improved over time. If they continue to improve in the coming weeks, the finale might yield the kind of ratings the cable network doesn't see very often."
