The Anti-Hero
It’s kind of a new thing-at least I think it is. The Anti-Hero. It started out with Breaking Bad. Who roots for a meth kingpin? Well, everyone when he’s a cancer patient chemistry teacher who is just trying to provide for his family when he meets his eventual death. Then there was the Sons of Anarchy. We seemed to be willing to forgive them a bit more for their gun running because they were against the drug trade. You know, moral domestic terrorists. Now I have Queen of the South. This cartel lord with a heart. (I say that like I know what I’m talking about…). Teresa is convinced there’s a better way to manage the cocaine trade. Um, well, maybe, but people are still dying. I guess if you think it’s their choice to die, then it’s OK. I don’t know. But it sure is a whole lot of fun to watch.
