I think the "Power is wack now" angle has become kinda fugazi. Some episodes have horrible writing and horrible acting but so did episodes from the first 3 seasons, the seasons where everyone was in love with the show and it could do no wrong. People just love to follow what seems to be the trendy social media narrative, the show was never really that well written and "good". Best part of the show is the legal stuff, I like the show most when they're in their Law & Order bag. I thought the Dre episode was very good for what it was and this Paz episode, as boring and uninteresting as it was because we don't care about Paz at all, was pretty well written (the acting was pretty bad tho)

So the episode is boring, uninteresting with bad acting, yet it’s fugazi to state it’s wack? :gucci:

An episode that saw Paz walk into a party officially announcing the Democratic bid for the governor at the same location where aristocrats were robbed at gunpoint just a few days ago (#PowerTimeline) with a loaded handgun and no invitation is considered “well written”?:gucci:


You nikkas man :laff:

I'm pretty sure that audio from the key ring that proctors daughter carried has already been dealt with. I think that was one of the things that got Saxe finally fired.

nah Proctor's daughter has a necklace with a SD card in it, "Proctor's Insurance".

The key ring toy was figured out and lead to Saxe getting canned, but not whatever Proctor gave to his Daughter (probably the FBI dude's death) right before he died.

What? No. You can say the episode was wack...and I said the reason why I personally thought it was boring and uninteresting is because I don't care about the Paz character at all, it wasnt necessarily because of the writing. But yeah, say what you want about the episode, that's not what I said, I said this social media narrative of "Power is wack now" is fugazi. The show has been "wack" forever, lol, in terms of ridiculous storylines and bad acting, not for entire seasons but certain episodes, this isn't a new thing. When nobody had one bad word to say about the show there was weak ass writing/acting taking place.

This episode is a great example of all the awfulness of Power.

An entire episode centered around a character who got maybe 40 minutes of screen time the prior seasons. And of course she is unable to care this episode. No one was clamoring for an episode about this character yet Power gave it to us, lol.

I stopped taking this show too seriously after Kanan survived the death match fire fight with Ghost, so while I get your point, that most people never criticized this show and loved everything about it... I was never one of those people.

Also, I can't agree with this being well written. Flashback episodes can only be done well when what was previously shown was sharp and concise. They've had years to flesh out these side characters, why are we just seeing Paz's son? Why are we just seeing her pops for like 2nd time? Why are we just finding out about the financial burden she's inherited due to Angie's death? She's a hairdresser? Had no clue, nor did anyone else.

:mjlol:

It was just bad. Your sister's dead, you're in line to receive her benefits to take care of your family (pops health and son's schooling) and you say, fukk that, I'm a tarnish my sister's working legacy and fukk up the bag that I desperately need for revenge? Just a bunch of dumbass filler for our entertainment

:gucci:USING THIS LOGIC
ALL WE NEEDED TO SEE WAS DRE
GET ARRESTED AND SET ON FIRE LAST WEEK.

LIKE I SAID YALL SO UPSET PAZ
GOT HER OWN EPISODE YALL COULDNT
EVEN ENJOY THE SHOW FOR WHAT IT WAS.
:devil:
:evil:

Dre’s episode had way more plot lines wrapped up and even introduced more plot points - like Tate being the one to send him on the hit, so nah.

Like I said, nothing about that episode was “fire”, your whole answer is deflecting back to square one.

Warner working on a case does nothing to advance the plot - who shot ghost. Tate putting a hit out does...

But keep defending this weak ass episode, the show needs viewers like you

BUT DRE DIDNT SHOOT GHOST
SO HOW DOES THAT ADVANCE THE PLOT?

DONT FORGET YOU JUMPED IN MY ALERTS.

The lead attorney warns her multiple times too like... "You sure you want to do this, cause ummm, if you implicate your sister as being dirty, you're not getting shyt"

:usure: :whoa:

Paz: Lets dig up my sisters grave so I can hand you over evidence of her working with Ghost

:why:

Why would Ramona kill him?
What if Ramona is related to someone Ghost killed but forgot about like either Breeze to get him out the way(i doubt it) or Rolla from the first season, who 50 made him kill because he thought Rolla wanted him out of the way, but he was just fine playing his position and clowning Tommy. That shyt hurt Ghost heart to have to kill Rolla which could be why Ramona would kill Ghost if she was related to him.
