Official Power Book II: Ghost Season 1 Thread

Despite being called Power Book II, the series seems confusingly to be a prequel, due to be set in the 1980s. This was revealed by Jackson in an Instagram post that sees him sitting on a period-appropriate police car at a studio.
The caption on this post read: "My Power spin-off is so crazy I'm doing the prequel. Wait till you see this s***, TGE influence [The Golden Era] Southside we outside 1988."
This seems to suggest that Power Book II will focus on Ghost's early years in the drug business as well as the early years of his relationship with Tasha and his friendship with Tommy (Joseph Sikora) as they work the corners.
Though this seems to rule out the appearance of Tariq (who was born in 2002) in the Powerspin-off, it is not entirely clear whether Jackson is talking about Book II or another Power spin-off.
Although Power Book II: Ghost is the only spin-off of the Starz show that has a title, at a TCA event showrunner Courtney Kemp said the series was the "first of several" spin-off shows. However, Jackson said that Book II will be "female orientated," suggesting that Jackson may be working on a new as-yet-unnamed spin-off.
However, if Book II is a more female-focused version of Power, Tariq is unlikely to be the main character in that either. So far, the only cast member announced for this spin-off is Mary J Blige, though it is currently unknown who she is playing.

My Soundtrack is the second “Carter”
Only spinoff i care about is that Proctor spinoff.
They all keep contradicting themselves especially 50.

I think very deeply
Not watching any spinoffs. Waiting for Better Call Saul to return next year 
I don’t even understand how Blackish got 3 spinoffs when a lot of successful TV shows don’t even get 1.

Blackish is a GOAT level sitcom though.
