Power Season 6 (Official Thread) - No Spoilers

[cartierhoe]

The biggest key with tariq bytch ass was to make him likable and not a bytch ass nikka.

He said he was like Ghost, which he definitely was not; Ghost would not do the things that tariq bytch ass did, nor would kanan.

tariq got his sis killed, got kanan killed, lied about being kidnapped where his father and tommy saved his bytch ass, tried to kill tommy, killed his father, and got his mom locked up.

Where do you see Ghost, kanan, or even tasha’s characteristics?

tariq is just a bytch-made hoe ass nikka.

fukk kemp and the writers for ruining a good ass show for Black people!!!!

Exactly, if you gon make him the focal point of a spinoff at least make him likeable lol don't nobody like that nikka

 

[Cave Savage]

Do the writers not realize how much of the suspense they killed by having the most important event in the show (and basically the end to the series) happen with 5 episodes left? I didn't even give a fukk by the last episode, I was just watching it for the sake of completing it.

There’s really no where to go for Tommy’s character after how outlandish and wacky they have wrote him especially in later seasons. It would essentially be a rehash of everything we have seen from his character.

There's a ton of ways to go. He can be the wise O.G. similiar to Ghost that no one listened to. Remember he told Tariq to let it go. Tariq didn't listen, Tariq lined him up and killed his pops and he let him go. Old Tommy would've rocked Tariq regardless of what Ghost said.

Judging by the title of his spinoff (Force), that doesn't sound like it will be the case.

The character is too far gone with all the people he has skilled and shyt that he's done that any change in him could come off as totally unrealistic.

There's nothing realistic about "Power" though. Ghost was tryig to be legit and the voice or reason and he still dropped an unrealistic amount of bodies.

That’s true. What I mean is that they have wrote the majority of the characters so wacky and outlandish that there’s really no where for them to go and improve in the spinoffs or even become likable.

That’s I’m curious as to how far in advance did they know that they wanted to get all of these characters to get/appear in these spinoffs. They should have never wrote Tommy as they did especially how they did in season 6 if they knew they wanted to give him his own spinoff.

The same for Saxe and all the crummy illegal shyt he did as well on top of the Warner storyline which was essentially a waste.

Tommy wasn't bad at all towards the end. They humanized him. He befriended a little kid, he spared Tariq and Tasha. It doesn't erase his past deeds. But he ain't a monster. Tariq is a monster for no good reason. Tommy was never a bad character honestly. nikka just wanted a family.

The spinoffs already have the holdover fanbase how many that is and how long will it last remains to be seen.

The show has been outlandish and wacky since Season 3.

He had reasons to want to kill Ghost. My biggest problem was the execution of it all. If they wanted to move forward with Tariq at least make hm more sympathetic. The way he killed Ghost was very malicious. It's no way to justify it. They had already shown Ghost being rough with him and threatening hm multiles times this season, the final showdown shouldve been something like that. Instead we just get a premeditated callous murder, but we supposed to support Book II. I'm cool.

What were these reasons? Ghost was rough and threatened him because he was being a fukk nikka aka what a father is supposed to do. If anything he was too soft on him.

Ghost was the only good main character with a bad ending. Tasha probably gonna get free in the next show so I wouldn’t count her ending, she was half n half.

I can’t believe all these dirty mothafukkas get to ride off into the sunset while the homie Ghost is gone like that by a bytch ass weakling.

tate became governor, saxe got his job back and I think a better position, tommy gets to ride off into the sunset with his fixed whip from the real og from the show, and of course, bytch ass weak tariq gets all of Ghost shyt.

Kemp gonna say that Ghost deserved it because of his actions, but those others are worse than Ghost and they beyond winning.

shyt pisses me off.

I am so angry about this, no one can understand.

I totally understand. I rode with Ghost until the end, and hoped that somehow he would still be alive. He wasn't perfect by any stretch but he was clearly the most redeemable character. All he ever tried to do was get out of the game and look out for his people. He did do Tasha dirty with the Angie shyt but she was putting on peep shows for the teenage help in episode one so she wasn't some innocent angel that deserved better. Seriously...Tommy was a hot head psycho. Tasha was a birdbrain whore. Tariq was a spoiled bytch. Yet the dude that was trying to help them, often against their will was the bad guy that needed to die? Think about it...if everyone listened to him it would have gone like this:

Him, Tommy, and Dre successful legit businessmen.
Tasha would be free doing her thing with alimony and whatever nikka she was on for the month.
Ghost and Angie still alive and together
Reyna still alive. Her and Tariq doing their thing in school.
Countless people would still be alive or free

This is what he wanted and tried to make happen. True enough the show wouldn't have made it past episode one if he did get his way. The entire premise of the show was people not listening to Ghost and somehow him being the bad guy for trying to look out or because they fukked up and somehow managed to blame him.

Ain't nobody father supposed to stick a gun in the face and tell them they going to kill them.

Nobody son is supposed to get his sister killed, then decide he wants to be big and bad after the fact (only with a gun his hand) instead of letting the real gangsters handle it and blatantly disrespect his father, who happens to be a big time gangster mind you, like he's a bytch.

if you want to use that logic, Raina got herself killed. She the one who walked up to Ray Ray poppin shyt tlking bout her daddy was gonn knock him down and shyt. If she had of just fell back and called the "real g's" she'd be alive. Or if she had told the parents from the rip what Tariq was into. That shyt couldve been avoided.

Not sure how any of that relates to Tariq's reasoning for wanting to kill Ghost. Reyna was only trying to protect her brother and showed some heart without the benefit of a gun in her hand. There is no comparison between her and Tariq.

Tariq ran and hid in fear. But if you saying Tariq should accept responsibility for his actions, then so should Raina. She didn't want to snitch on her bro, but she confronted a nikka that she know what to harm her brother and pop shyt, when she could have just as easily called Ghost. Raina got rocked and Tariq stepped up. As far him wanting to rock Ghost, thats hurt and disappointment. The writers did a terrible job at conveying that in the final seasons but it was on full display in the earlier seasons. The ending kill was just malicious, nothing to justify that. It's bad writing.
