Not really trying to get into the timeline thing, BUT here is Courtney Kemp, the Creator and Showrunner stating that about 5 months has passed in the Power Universe/narrative...this was during Season 5, Episode 5 so up until last season every episode was a matter of days in between one another (if that)

These are not my words but the Show's creator so brehs and brehettes if it doesnt make sense dont blame us but the writers of the show....

Salute

:mjlol:NAH BREAUGH GOOFY ASS @R.E.N. Spells Ren
KNOWS MORE THAN THE SHOWS CREATOR.


:devil:
:evil:


nikka are you retarded?

I posted a clip of a writer claiming the show had only been "4-5 months" too. I never questioned that the writers were making that dumb ass claim. I said that they were making that dumb ass claim signifies the shytty level of writing we're dealing with. They're making this shyt up as they go along and then Juelzing about it later. LMAO @ just making Tariq a High Schooler "4-5 months" later simply cuz Michael Rainey got big; y'all will buy anything :mjlol:

Kanan starts the series in prison. His lawyer goes through the process of getting his conviction overturned and his release from prison. He gets out, fukks shyt up, gets burned up, recovers from those burns, fukks shyt up some more then gets his cuz killed, fukks some shyt up some more then gets killed himself...all within 4-5 months. :comeon:

There are several other storylines (including the Queens Child Project making it to a groundbreaking ceremony) that only make sense in a "4-5 month time" span if you just blindly accept what the writers are saying and throw reality completely out of the window. And I don't even give a shyt about the time span, as it's not important. Clearly less time has passed on the show than in real life. But pushing this "only a few months have passed" nonsense is just insulting.

My notes:

-Ghost was in rare form in the first half of this episode. Usually, he's being pushed around and disrespected by everyone he's in contact with, so to see him handle Dre, Tate, and Jason's crew like he did was fantastic. The show works better when Ghost is calling the shots and controlling the situation. By the end of the episode, I don't know. He already tried being a better man last season and it barely even lasted two episodes. That's not who he is, that's who he thinks Angela wanted him to be.

-I called it. :mjgrin: I called it when the trailer came out that Angela would pop up as a hallucination in Ghost's mind, encouraging him to do certain things or she wouldn't respect him as a man. And then it happened. I don't think it will be a recurring thing, but I guess Angela was just showing up as a warning to Ghost that he needs to move on with his life. I'm just wondering why she wouldn't want Tommy dead, or what she really wants Ghost to learn from all this. This is pretty much Ghost's filtered version of Angela, so it's hard to tell if this is what she would really say. I didn't hate the hallucination, but I didn't love it that much either.

-No. No to everything Tasha, no to her new love story, and no to her always blaming Ghost for every horrible thing that's ever happened to her. Ever since people here made the comparison to Lucious and Cookie, I can't stop seeing it because every conversation these two have sounds just like an episode of Empire. I can't remember the last positive interaction Ghost and Tasha even had. Season four, maybe? How did these two end up together when all they do is shyt on each other every chance they get?

-Tommy's mother might love coke, but she's right all the time. She knew Holly wasn't it, she knew Teresi wasn't it, and she knows LaKeisha isn't it. At the end of the day, if Keisha sees that her son's life is at risk, she's going to step away from the whole thing and Tommy will have no choice but to get rid of her. These two are headed for a blowup of the highest degree. In the long run, both of them will get hurt and it will be awful.

-Tommy's mother and Joseph Sikora both know Tommy's weaknesses well, the main one being that he treats his close ones with too much trust (except for Ghost, but at least until the season five finale, he still wasn't willing to take it there). That scene with Tariq was him getting played and not realizing it. Tommy is so blinded by his love for Tariq, he doesn't see that this kid is complete trash and shouldn't be trusted. I'm assuming he's going to tell Tasha that Tariq is pushing drugs because her and Ghost confront Tariq about it next week. It's amazing how Tariq was upset about being lied to and kept wanting the truth from his parents, but at this point, he's just as much of a dirty liar and manipulator as they are.

-Jason favors Ghost over Tommy. Interesting to know. It's funny how Jason initially was behind Tommy and wanted him to move on from Ghost, but now, he is hoping for Ghost to kill Tommy and become his new distro. He's like that girl that's dating this one guy, but she's clearly over the relationship and sees a real future with another guy.

-Dre must think that both Ghost and Proctor are auditioning for the role of Booboo the Fool. Does he really think that he can get one over on them? They already don't trust him and have him on a leash. He can't play both sides anymore. Sooner or later, he's going to end up dead. He's outlived too many people and burned too many bridges. It's time for him to get his.

-Lindsay's acting in that overdose scene was horrendous. Speaking of that, Proctor's decision was cold-blooded, but it had to be done. I wonder how that dolphin tape is going to come into play since Saxe is now the only person that knows about it. I'm assuming it would be inadmissible, but knowing Power, they'll find a way around that.

Jason only wanted Ghost to come aboard because he saw that Ghost had a higher connection... Ghost used that to his advantage and told Jason “fukk off” so now Jason can’t do shyt to Ghost without bringing heat on himself...

Jason and his crew going to get got eventually tho

NOW WHOS JUELZING
YOU LYING GOOFY ASS nikka?



11 years old in High School?


nikkas took one retarded comment from shytty writer about the entire series taking place within a few months and ran with it. There are so many things that have happened in the show that should've let you know that comment was BS. The only thing that should've been taken from that comment is how it perfectly signifies the quality of writing we're dealing with on this show

Sure it was a joke...in that same post you claim the whole series was just a few months. You're just Juelzing looking foolish as the writers in the process. :skip:

Literally the only thing to support a 4-5 month timespan is that writer's dumb comment. There's plenty to support a much longer span when considering what actually happens on the show.

LMAO @ the QCP being dreamt up, approved, and having a breaking ground ceremony in just a fraction of your timespan. :mjlol:


NOW THAT THE SHOWS CREATOR WAS POSTED
YOUVE SWITCHED YOUR WHOLE TUNE.

GTFOH CLOWN.

Writer becoming plural signifies a change in tune? My God you're stupid.

The tune is the same: the only thing that supports a "4-5 month" time span is off screen comments by writers. There's plenty shown onscreen that refutes that stupid ass assertion.

But I'm done with you, you're the lame who tried to claim Tariq was an 11 year old at Choate only to literally change your tune by trying to claim you were 'joking'. :camby:

why are we still arguing about the writer...look, she's juelzing herself, talking about they aged the kids (and I get why, kids grow a lot year to year) but they didn't age the adults and it has been lets say half a year...maybe 8 months in the series thus far. this isn't on the audience, they created a dumb timeline and on top of that, don't honor it in the show nor do they allow for it to coincide with the real world. this is dumb all around, but by far not the most egregious thing about where we are...the plot/writing would be :mindblown: in any timeline right now, a slow motion car wreck (that we can't stop watching :lolbron: )

Co-sign. Now that the evidence has been found that Kemp definitely conceived this to take place over 5 months, ALL of this shyt is even more ridiculous. Even in the tv world it’s a crazy stretch. It’s wild that they chose to build such a poor foundation for their overall storyline.
