POWER Book all seasons discussion thread (Power Book II: Ghost canceled )
50 should have been dead. That was wack.
The Greg thing was a nice twist but Angie is mad grimy for that one.
Angie getting back with Ghost seemed rushed.
Ghost didn't have to be the actual killers of the connects.
He didn't kill the spanish connect b/c of the daughter's connection to Angie?
Dre is really down with Ghost or is he still with Kanan?
Now that Ghost is legit.. what use is Dre? He must be down with Kanan.
Season 3 should be Kanan lurking in the shadows and using people like puppets.
I think the writer check needs some HELP. She painting herself into a corner.
She is killing too many people. There needs to be some new tension.
Ghost have 3 clubs now all of a sudden?

Ghost have 3 clubs now all of a sudden?
1. Truth
2. Stern's old club that was a rival to truth when ghost initially owned truth
3. Stern's club in Miami that was bought out from the white guy.
Oh so he wiped Simon out! I missed that so quick I guess. Ok that has to be a mistake. Simon is gonna come back at him when he least expects it.
Ok. Nice set up.
Ok. Nice set up.
dre will take what tommy didn't...ghost gave tommy a chance to come on board w/ him and be legit...that's where dre will fill in now...plus that kantos dude that snaked james...maybe that's a spot dre could fill...but he wants out the hood...so a chance to do some steady legit work w/ ghost I'm sure dude will get in where he fit in...I don't think he's still w/ kanan...it's bad enough kanan want to be on that street shit forever which dre don't want but he said it best if kanan would dead his own son then he's expendable af dealing w/ kanan
and ya I agree too many characters were killed off...hopefully in season 3 the serbs/russians whatever the hell they were retaliate or are still in the mix tryna find out who killed their boss...no way ghost should've been able to wrap things up that easily w/ them...marlo and the haitian crew he repped were underutilized as well...like a couple of ppl said we're pretty much back to square one...only thing diff is the tensions have been magnified
Dre meant what he said when he went to go see Ghost at Truth to tell him about Sean.
He realized Kanan is too ruthless to follow when he killed his own son. Not to mention he cut his boy's tongue out.
Ghost is public enemy number one in next season. I mean everyone is out for ghost now. It should get interesting. I thought Angie was a goner...she so dang whipped it don't make sense!! Lol tommy too...
This negro 50 Cent is Jason Voorhees now. Damn Fif, let the ego go and do what's best for the show; stay fucking dead.
Tasha want at Ghost, Tommy has no choice. I think they should have left us with a better cliff hanger, they set up next season plot to much.
Ruiz. For the life of me I couldn't figure out how it was spelled.
I thought I could just spell it how it sounded and yall would let me get away with it.
Simple. Ghost didn't kill Ruiz because his main goal was to remove Ruiz's daughter so she couldn't testify against Angela in court. If he had just shot Ruiz, his family would have stayed in NY and the feds would have access to the daughter. By telling Ruiz that him and his family were in danger and needed to disappear, he accomplished what he needed done.
Anyone else notice that Ruiz (a top cocaine dealer in the organization) lived in a dumpy ass, small apartment? When they had that episode where he took his daughter's cell phone from her, I was surprised that he was still living in the hood.
The actress Tasha Smith is in BOTH "Empire" & "Power", on "Empire" she plays Cookie's sister in Philly.
Remember when Cookie got a rose @ her door she thought it was a message from a guy that was going to kill her so she contacted her down in Philly where she arranged for her people to take him out, but then Lucious came to Cookie and said he left the rose as a birthday gift, she ran off to call her sister (her name is Carol on the show) to stop the execution but it was too late.
On "Power" the SAME actress plays Sean's Mother, remember that Sean took Kanan to see her and he sat in the living room trying to turn the TV up as Kanan knocked her guts out, then she gave him his bag with all the money in it and told Kanan to "Watch out for him!" in reference to Sean, she was calling Kanan the next morning after Kanan took him out looking for him, reminding him of what she told him.
Earlier this season (maybe around ep 3 or 4) the same actress (her name is Jarita on the show) visited Tasha and that's where I mistakenly remembered the sister aspect of their relationship, transposing Tasha for Cookie.
Tasha Smith is the LOUD chick from Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married?" movies and various other TV shows.

Remember they originally had the wrong location. Angela called in with the correct one... couldn't really go against that.
I knew 50 was still alive when the fire was burning everywhere else, but on him--even though Ghost poured the gasoline directly all over him. Also, that stab wound was not a kill wound. The glass sharf wasn't long enough to hit anything vital. That being said, he should be burned to a crisp and laid up in ICU, even if he miraculously survived. His survival could signal a shark jump for the show. 50 should have bowed out gracefully and opened the way for a new villain or skipped that showdown scene altogether.
I really don't want to see Kanan in Season 3.
Especially if they're going to have him lurking and stealth killing off characters because he's all burnt up and deformed on some Two-Face shit.
They need to nip that shit in the bud by mid-season. The season finale should not be Ghost/Kanan II.

Yeah man Angie is whipped like a muthafucka, she would do anything for Ghost. Shit is funny with Tommy, he can't leave that bitch alone for shit. I see Ghost getting shot next season and almost dying, he has got way too many enemies now. Maybe him and Tommy will patch things up, who knows.
I remember people that Empire was going to bring down Power, that don't look like the case at all anymore. Power is a damn good show.....
True on the glass shard, it was just long enough to puncture a lung but not kill him, but as far as him surviving, anyone remember Omar surviving a 5 story jump off a balcony in "The Wire"?!?
Just wonder if it would mess with the continuity of the show if all of a sudden Ghost is all sleeved up all of a sudden, or will no one care?
you killing me bro

I would have agreed with you on this before I watched this Finale. This whole thing with Tommy seemed rushed. I mean Holly shows up and after speaking with him for 5 mins,(she really didnt actually say anything except "look in the bag") he's ready to pull a gun on Ghost? Nahh..
I really thought Greg was going to Kill Angela for ruining his career. He may have just been "suspended" but that will follow him wherever he goes in the FBI. Thing is that Angela aint really worth all that.
THe finale was just lackluster and the season had a lot going for it. They really could have the setup like the REAL Jimenez crew arriving in NY to finish off Lobos. Tommy should be more self aware to know that he dont have the brains to run the show.
Yea that was fucking ridiculous. This show would be so much more effective if it had a better writing staff.
That was cheesy as hell, too!!
I had such high hopes for Power, but I have to accept that it's nothing more that entertaining second rate dramatic television.
Ghost, in theory, should be an antihero worthy of being mentioned with Walter and Tony, but the writers won't let him take the necessary steps to get there. It's so frustrating.

It was actually a series of things with Tommy, Holly was just the straw that broke the camels back. He found out: Ghost lied to him about killing the broad, Ghost set him up to go to jail, even though he had a plan to get him out, AND Holly. Holly's issue wasn't just the money in the bag, but that all this time Ghost had been looking him in his face knowing had been working on the back end fucking up his pussy...
The whole Angela thing makes sense, and actually she is a bigger mark than Ghost. The head of her unit is dirty and now sees her as a threat because she had inside info to get his 'boss' locked up, Greg is pissed, and has skills to follow her, get intel on her and set her up, maybe even get her killed if he feeds the dirty boss enough to give to Lobos and get her fucked up.
Kanan living was actually a stroke of genius, because it adds a whole new element to Ghost trouble in season 3. It's not a bad thing to have an old enemy carry over, especially now because Ghost may get caught slipping because he thinks Kanan is dead.
Kanan's boy is also going to play a big role in this, because if he is now loyal to Ghost, and Kanan resurfaces, he's going to be an important piece of the equation.
I don't know why there is so much beef about the characters transitioning.... that formula worked like hell for the wire, enemies forming new alliances, setting each other up, etc. (i.e. Prop Joe going from Stringer enemy, to Stringer ally, Marlo Allie, Marlo enemy), that's not lazy writing, that's actually great writing because you have to be MAD creative to reinvent characters and involve them in new storylines and alliances. Constantly having a revolving door of key characters can be the death of the series, because the audience can't connect to them before they are gone.
I agree with others that this wasn't the best finale.
I see next season as one with Ghost and Angela against the world. They both have just as many enemies.
Kanan not being dead is a little too much of a stretch. But, hey, it's TV.
Now here is my opinion. Even if Ghost goes 100% legit how will he be able to enjoy the life? Look at the people who would have something against him:
Tasha
Tommy
Kanan
Lobos
Greg (because of Angela)
Stern
With Kanan and Lobos still alive Ghost is no where near being out of the game. He will have to have 24 hour security for him and Angela. Stern (who has way more legit money and resources than Ghost) will still be working to take the clubs back. Tasha would be causing havoc, especially with the kids involved.
Nobody has mentioned it yet but I think ultimately Ghost was kind of OK with Tasha and Shawn. That was an out for him so he can be with Angela.
I think Ghost's plan was for Lobos and Kanan die. Tommy take over the dope game. Ghost set Tasha up with enough money and legit business to live her own life (possibly with Shawn at a distance) but still keep the kids in his life. Angela leave the DA and start a life with him. But like I said, it's TV so shit has to happen.
We'll see what happens. I'm still a fan and will continue to watch. I just hope it doesn't get worse in season 3.

I think some of yall are forgetting its ONLY been 18 episodes. That not even a full season on network TV. I think the writing is dam good, of course it could be better, but you have to fit a lot in a small time frame.
damn tommy still simpin over that holly chick?
ghost shoulda done him the way nino brown did "g money"
ghost shoulda done him the way nino brown did "g money"
Nah. Mike could have crushed each and every "tip" that Angela provided to the team by saying she didn't follow procedure. You have to remember, every piece of information Angela got, she got illegally.
Angela never filed paper work or did anything thru proper channels, stuff like that will cause cases to be thrown out in court. Mike could have easily kept Lobos out of jail, that's why the twist of having him be dirty is stupid and doesn't help the story line.
