People are flooding to social media in awe of a series which has left them with 'a void' in their life.

Sometimes the oldies really are the goldies - take Prison Break, Breaking Bad and that psychological thriller dubbed as 'the best thing Netflix has produced' as prime examples.

And luckily for you, there's another series with a whopping seven seasons to add to your list to cancel all your Friday night plans for. Bikeriders fans prepare yourselves:

Synopsis, cast and crew

Sons of Anarchy first came out in 2008 and concluded in 2014.

Created by Kurt Sutter, it centers around an outlawed motorcycle club based in a fictional town in California and what happens when members of the group start questioning the club, those around them and themselves.

It stars the likes of Charlie Hunnam (The Gentlemen), Katey Sagal (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), Mark Boone Junior (Batman Begins) and Kim Coates (Bad Blood).

And while the TV series may have come out over 15 years ago, some are only just stumbling across it for the first time or else some just love it so much they can't stop raving about it.

Reaction

Sons of Anarchy has received an impressive Rotten Tomatoes audience score of 91 percent and tomatometer score of 87 percent.

And the love for the series has spilled onto social media too.

A viewer took to LADbible Facebook Group Netflix Bangers to share their review for the series.

They wrote: "What an incredible show!! I've watched a lot of series but none of them has ever made me feel the way I feel about this series.I felt like I was one of them living through all the drama, secrets and lies, chaos... everything. You can realize a lots of thing about Life, love, friendship, sacrifice, importance of the people you love.

"Watching this Series was like a journey to me. I laughed, cheered, cried, hated through this journey.

"SOA isn’t just a series..Its an emotion.The show is gone but not forgotten."

A Twitter user posted today (14 July): "I need to start watching Sons of Anarchy again! Such a great show!!!"

"Just finished Sons of Anarchy for the 4th time and every time I’m bawling like a baby this time hit different because now I have my own son and man I am depressed," another added.

And a third resolved: "There’s been an empty space in my heart since Netflix removed sons of anarchy."

Fortunately, while Sons of Anarchy was removed from Netflix, it's currently available to watch on Hulu or to buy on Apple TV, Prime Video or Fandango.
