Rich and I like some of the same shows but there are some he likes and I don’t and visa versa. One that Rich asked me to watch was Power. Now I see a couple of rappers in this like 50 Cent and such. I am not really into the rap culture like Rich is but He said I need to give it a shot. We are giving each other three shows that we have to watch the first episode of and this was his first one. I gave him the Wire, Only Murders in the Building, and the Bear.
I didn’t give this much of a shot since I knew nothing about the show. But I promised to watch the first episode and I was really surprised it was so good. I thought it would be about running a club but it’s so much more. I wanted to go in blind and I was glad I did. The show is about a guy named James “Ghost” St Patrick and his family and friend Tommy. It starts out with how he opens this new club and it’s doing well and making money and we are introduced to the seedy side of Ghost. He’s a drug dealer and the head of the group. He kills a guy who stole from him. We are introduced to the man who is the head of the cartel that gives him his drugs. Here is the thing. I really think the show is good. It’s a little bit like Sopranos with more business and club elements with the gang-type stuff.
I really like the actors they are all good and I am interested in what happens to them.
Thanks, Rich for a good show to watch and I will keep watching.
I give the first episode 7 out of 10 TV’s
