While the show, about a biker gang, sees Katey Sagal out-numbered by men, she credits it for helping grace television with stronger female roles for older women. “This country is so hell-bent on being young. I grew up in a household where it was all about respecting our elders and knowing more the older we get. What’s great about cable television is that it’s allowed creators to create something that - surprise, surprise - has a lot of women of an older age. They’ve lived longer, they’re interesting and viable. It’s opening up better parts for women of my age.” [x]
