Main sets located there include the clubhouse, St. Thomas Hospital and Jax 's house. The production rooms at the studio used by the writing staff also double as the Charming police station. External scenes are often filmed nearby in Sun Valley and Tujunga. Interior and exterior scenes set in Northern Ireland during season 3 were also filmed at Occidental Studios and surrounding areas. A second unit shot footage in Northern Ireland used in the third season. Reception Some critics felt the third season was dragged down by the previous season 's cliffhanger. James Poniewozik of TIME called the season three premiere `` breathtaking '' and praised Sagal 's performance with Holbrook. He later stated that Abel 's disappearance helped return the show to its central problem : Jax 's allegiance to the club. Entertainment Weekly 's Ken Tucker agreed that Holbrook and Sagal 's scenes were `` beautiful ''. He also commented that the series handled themes of loyalty and family especially well. Maureen Ryan commented that the third season divided critics and fans alike, suggesting the expanded Belfast cast made it harder for the audience to invest in the characters ' journeys. Ryan later questioned the credibility of Hector Salazar 's story, noting that he was inferior to other villainous characters such as Stahl, Zobelle and Weston. However, she praised Ally Walker 's performance, comparing her character to The Shield 's Vic Mackey. Critic Alan Sepinwall said the season was `` interesting but uneven '', noting that the plot gained traction in later episodes. Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter said `` Sutter should be applauded for shaking things up '', calling the slower pace a `` creative necessity ''.
