Power [Starz - Spoilers]

Mr E · 06-06-2014 9:28pm #1

I had a look for a thread about this, but couldn't find one (surprisingly). It starts officially on Starz tomorrow night, but the pilot is out now. I thought it was an absolute cracker.

Power is an upcoming drama television series on Starz created by Courtney Kemp Agboh and produced by the rapper Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson. The series follows James St. Patrick, nicknamed "Ghost", owner of a popular New York City nightclub. In addition, he is a major player in one of the city's biggest illegal drug networks. He struggles to balance these two lives, and the balance topples when he realizes he wants to leave the drug ring in order to support his legitimate business.

One to watch....

kearneybobs · 08-06-2014 9:50am

Definitely going to give this a watch. Looks really promising.

kayevajo · 08-06-2014 12:21pm

Watched first episode. Looks promising.

squonk · 09-06-2014 9:02am

I watched the pilot last night based on the comments above. It's grat. It was a strong start. Great setup overall and I'm looking forward to the next episode. I hope they can keep the quality up post-pilot.

Agent Coulson · 23-06-2014 4:25pm

Just caught up with this three episodes in and it holding up story wise if they can keep this going they will have a strong series on there hands.

squonk · 23-06-2014 4:46pm

Yeah it's on my must see list at the moment. Very strong for a summer show. I just really like lots of things about it. Very fine replacement for the much lamented Boss.

ixoy · 12-08-2014 8:50pm

So without any spoiling.. Is this show worth watching, now that it's finished airing?

Agent Coulson · 12-08-2014 8:56pm

I really enjoyed it and it has been renewed for a second season.

It stayed strong for the 8 episode season.

krustydoyle · 12-08-2014 9:46pm

Have to agree with agent coulson

I enjoyed it, decent characters (especially the women) so bring on season 2

Have to agree with all the above. I enjoyed it and delighted to hear it got renewed.

squonk · 13-08-2014 8:31am

Yes, as said above, top class stuff all the way through. Not a dud episode or filler in sight. I hope they keep this up for Season 2. I think 8 is just the right number of episodes per season for the story they're telling.

Agent Coulson · 26-03-2015 2:30pm

Season 2 trailer.

Really looking forward to this.

Back tomorrow night Stateside.

Really looking forward to this hopefully it will be as strong as season 1.

Agent Coulson · 07-06-2015 12:15pm

Strong opening episode that lays down a good maker for what looks like another strong season ahead.

somesoldiers · 08-06-2015 1:25pm

loved the first season of this, will probably wait til the end and binge s02

kearneybobs · 08-06-2015 5:01pm

Great first episode to season 2.

mafaa · 10-06-2015 8:03pm

Power Renewed For Season 3 By Starz!

TerrorFirmer · 30-06-2015 11:38am

Just started watching this and it's excellent. Was hooked within 10 minutes of the first episode, which is rare enough.

Solid first season. Really enjoyed it. Loving how it's becoming a little bit more complex in the second season.

Lucas Hood · 02-07-2015 7:47pm

Liking this.
Hating when they have half their conversations in English then the other half in Spanish.

What's wrong with that por favor? Yes annoying, it's like Bernard dunnes speaking Irish where he explains what he's just said in English

Agent Coulson · 12-07-2015 11:47am

It just got really interesting now.

krustydoyle · 12-07-2015 12:44pm

Great episode.. Few twists and turns to come I'd say

Agent Coulson · 20-07-2015 8:13pm

The twists are coming alright I really think this is my number 1 summer show.

The show really is holding up to the same level it had in the first season.

kearneybobs · 20-07-2015 8:52pm

Yeah. They're upping the ante every episode. Some nice twists etc but with some of the recent ones you've gotta question the longevity of the series.

Now that Angela knows Ghost is Ghost they might be able to get another season out of it.

Agent Coulson · 20-07-2015 8:54pm

3 seasons would be about right for this story next and final season can be about the downfall of Ghost.

somesoldiers · 21-07-2015 10:19am

Just caught up with this and I also am enjoying the momentum, I even went back and watched s01 again just to be sure I hadn't missed anything.

Now to catch up on what's happening in Abuddin

somesoldiers · 02-08-2015 9:33am

S2 e7: So Tommy walks into the counting house & sees a wall of notes ana say to Julio, " you got this place looking like the US Mint baby"... Mint is coins right?

Nope; the mint is were all the money is printed inc. bills and coins (even though part of it may be outsourced).

Agent Coulson · 10-08-2015 12:13pm

Great episode.

Really looking forward to the season finale next week.

This really is a show that needs to get more attention.

really enjoying this season too, a pity only one more episode but hopefully will wrap it up nicely

kearneybobs · 14-08-2015 11:23am

Brilliant episode again. Season is up there with the must watch shows for me.

you sure?

The BEP does not produce coins - all U.S. coinage is minted by the United States Mint

Agent Coulson · 16-08-2015 12:31pm

Another great season.

The final few minutes setting up next season were great.

somesoldiers · 16-08-2015 1:13pm

Really enjoyed that season ending, I thought there wouldn't be much left for the next one without lots of gaping holes but was tied up nicely with plenty of scope for a good s3

Nody · 16-08-2015 1:50pm

I can only agree; they could have gone heavy on the cheese but things were set up in a nice way both as a ending of S2 (in case that's it) while leaving plenty of potential arcs for a S3.

Agent Coulson · 04-04-2016 7:45pm

Both season 1 & 2 have been added to Netflix Ireland.

Tis a hidden gem of a show.

Agent Coulson · 04-05-2016 11:23pm

Just got through the first two seasons of this, excellent. Didn't think it would be as good as it was

Agent Coulson · 16-07-2016 12:12pm

Returns tomorrow night Stateside

And the next day it's airing on Netflix.

Agent Coulson · 17-07-2016 1:20pm

A slow but strong opening episode to season 3

Enrique Murciano

steals the episode for me.. along with bubble wrap :P

TerrorFirmer · 21-07-2016 1:15am

Excellent opener.

Starz have also renewed Power for Season 4 and 5.

Agent Coulson · 31-07-2016 6:40pm

Episode 3 was all kinds of good opening up the world and bringing in a new bad ass woman.

Also great to see Ivana Milicevic hopefully she gets to be as kickass as she was in Banshee.

Shlippery · 01-08-2016 11:59pm

Quality show, friend recommended it to me ages ago and I wasn't sold on the plot and hadn't heard of "Starz" so figured it'd be ****e, how wrong I was!

Saw it on Netflix and cruised through S1 and 2 on Netflix..up to date now.

Still not sure how the season will go, wasn't too keen on how

Kanan survived

last season..but will give them a chance, especially with the new psycho lady..

Weekly episodes are a great job on Netflix...Season 3 coming along nicely,.be interesting to see how it's gonna unfold.

Agent Coulson · 15-08-2016 4:11pm

That was a great episode.

Angela finally fully turned to the darkside. The Ghost and the Witch

Tommy's mother lol

Going to miss

Holly

Shlippery · 15-08-2016 10:04pm

Best of the season. Really ramped things up a notch!
