I just re-watched the first season. I'm sorry but that season just cant be topped, season 3 was good but the first season was outstanding.

The first season is so fukking traumatic. Rewatched it last night and now I've remembered why I'd filed this in the "fukking amazing TV that I'm not sure I want to rewatch any time soon" pile.

Gem's dog, brehs. GEM'S DOG.

Forgot how cold Sully was in the first season too.

Y’all cappin too much. Show was fire but very unrealistic ala power. The idea of Jaimie killing off three Turks who were obviously connect to organized crime and there was no blow back from the Turks. They families would have most likely been dead in real life. The whole love affair with the plug was some straight out of power shyt.

When i say makes it look like a kids show, i mean in the way its shot, the acting, the score etc.

real shyt, i was like the way this nikka moving he wont be around for another 48 hours.

This nikka will find a way to take himself out the picture.

The truth is we shyt like this play out every now and then irl if you pay attention to the news

Dude was just a lunatic from the jump. What made him think he can escape from police and go back to the endz in 2019 in a city with more CCTV than practically anywhere else in the world in the world with distinguishable facial scars? He would have just been a temporary problem regardless.

It's nowhere near as unrealistic as Power, not even close.

Power is literally a parody of it's former self and a huge running joke to the point we watch it every week just to roast it.

Older women with out of town husbands fukk younger dudes all the time. How many young cats turn down p*ssy offered to them on a platter - especially a chick with status?

[Kidd Dibiase]

Why did Sully kill that dude Dris?

These nikkas were dropping bodies left and right and having shootout after shootout and the feds still ain’t pull up the whole season. This ain’t Chicago if you knew anything about London you would know that in itself is very unrealistic as well. Modie breaking out of prison and just going about his day. CCTV would have spotted him in hours. It was a great season but if you think this show is even close to realistic you need to learn how UK life really is.

I quit watching power like two seasons back. It always came off as a filler show that I was watching just because....

There was no real depth to it. shyt was so ppredictable and cringeworthy.

Look man you're like second person who missed. Go back and rematch that episode. It should be very clear what happened.

Me spoiling it for you doesn't do justice for that scene if you misinterpreted such a climatic moment of the season.

Why do londoners call police feds when there is no federal system in uk, and no feds in uk?

Also ive literally seen with my own eyes shootouts in uk, not everywhere has the amount of cctv as lomdon does, but to ur point its set in london so probably unrealistic but that doesnt mean whole uk is like that

 

[Serious]

I was kind of wondering this as well.....

Aren't knife attacks more common than shootouts

Pretty sure they got the term from American culture. I’ve seen people in the states refer to state police as feds too. It’s pretty universal now for law enforcement

@dora_da_destroyer you watching this piff

nope, i keep seeing this mentioned but realize it's a UK show...i hate UK accents

 

[MidniteJay]

nope, i keep seeing this mentioned but realize it's a UK show...i hate UK accents

But you tolerated this in GOT?

I mean there's some accents I don't like myself but that doesn't stop me from watching a legit show.
