Sons of Anarchy creator takes on AMC via Twitter

AMC's Supremes-like trifecta of hit shows (where Mad Men is Diana Ross, Walking Dead is Mary Wilson, and Breaking Bad is poor Florence Ballard, of course) has been under pressure lately, what with Frank Darabont's departure from Walking Dead and the uncertainty over Breaking Bad's future. Enter Kurt Sutter, the vaguely Geddy Lee-looking creator of FX's Sons of Anarchy. Sutter recently went on something of a tear via Twitter, airing quite a bit of AMC's dirty laundry, at least from his own perspective.   "why darabont got fired - wiener. he held AMC hostage, broke their bank, budgets were slashed, shit rolled down hill onto gilligan and frank," went the first tweet, referring to Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner, Breaking Bad's Vince Gilligan, and Walking Dead's Darabont, respectively.

"darabont reacted strongly to slashed budgets. he made mistakes, he was fired. no creative in town will trust AMC to back up their artists," Sutter wrote. "i don't know know MW, got no beef with him. just hate that darabont is being demonized. no one has the balls to tell the truth. MM gutted AMC"

Sutter saved his final bon mot for the end, offering the classic Kanye "I said something over-the-top but I'm just speaking my mind, oh well."

"i have trouble determining the line between honesty and brutal frankness. i usually get pushed past it by bullshit and injustice. apparently speaking one's mind is outrageous, troublesome and self-indulgent. man, this is a town full of silent, terrified dicksuckers."

I guess the only way to settle this is by some kind of very special, inter-network crossover episode where the Sons of Anarchy somehow travel back in time and fight with Don Draper before bonding over their mutual rampant alcoholism. Just in time for sweeps.
