Opie Winston is one of the most popular characters in Sons of Anarchy, but he's also the one that was massively failed by the club, various times.
All the main characters in Sons of Anarchy dealt with different tragedies, but they could always count on the rest of their brothers from the club – however, SAMCRO constantly failed Opie Winston (Ryan Hurst), one of its most loyal members. In 2008, Kurt Sutter took viewers into the world of motorcycle clubs in the action crime drama TV series Sons of Anarchy, which became so popular it lived on for a total of seven seasons, coming to an end in 2014. Sons of Anarchy was full of drama, betrayals, and tragedies, and while brotherhood was one of its central themes, the club massively failed one of its best men.
Set in the fictional town of Charming, California, Sons of Anarchy was led by Jackson “Jax” Teller (Charlie Hunnam), VP of the title club at the beginning of the series and the son of John 'JT' Teller, one of the club’s founding members. The events of the series kick-off when Jax finds his father’s manifesto, in which JT shared his ideas and views for the club, which were very different from those of the club’s current President (and Jax’s stepfather), Clay Morrow (Ron Perlman). This, along with other problems, sends Jax on a journey that makes him question his relationships, family, and role in the club. Jax counted on the support of his SAMCRO brothers throughout Sons of Anarchy, especially Opie, his best friend who met a tragic end in season 5.
Harry ‘Opie’ Winston was the son of Piermont ‘Piney’ Winston (William Lucking), making him a “legacy”, and he was also Jax’s best friend, as they had known each other since they were kids. When viewers met Opie, he wasn’t fully involved with the club anymore, but he was eventually pulled back into it, but that unleashed a series of tragedies for him, and SAMCRO ultimately failed him constantly.
