    Worse part is, she's so involved they really can't kill her off... not yet anyway.



    It'd be a huge stretch for Holly to have relayed enough information for King's hypothetical to be true. A nice twist in general, but based on how it's playing out, I'd be pissed if it ended up being true.
    Well that's just you and maybe a couple other people. If most hated her acting like that they wouldn't really be watching since this is the main storyline right now.

    Also, I really hate that the new lawyer is leading the case now. Hate his smug *** attitude towards ghost lol.

    Depends on what area of a hooker you would use to redeem them.

      I think it would be a stretch for her to have told him anything sure, but I don't think that direction for the story would be a stretch at all. We know little about her past and who she was involved with except that she was already on the run from something which is how she ended up in NYC in the first place.

      Given her involvement in the whole Ghost/Lobos investigation it wouldn't be a stretch that her name and involvement with Tommy would have floated about given the police were WELL aware of her connection to Tommy and her job at Truth. All it would take is for a mobster to have been in Truth on a few occasions to spot her, recognize her and word gets back to Teresi eventually on the inside. All he would know would be that she's back off the radar and Tommy is the last person they could trace her back to being involved with.

      I think he'll ultimately be revealed as Tommy's dad, but I don't think the other route is out of the question at all.

        If Im being honest, its hard for me to watch a Tommy scene and not think "Man, this dude must get his haircut every day" His fade is tight in every scene man.

                  A few other people like most here? lol, doesn't really matter. But I'm not sure why you think people are watching Power for Angela's acting. As I mentioned, there were plenty of reasons to watch her before this season and we're only in episode 3 now... there's really not a reason for someone to STOP watching, but there's definitely plenty of room for criticism.

                  But the problem is more her story than her acting. A better actress may have made this story more interesting, but it's really the writers who have botched it... she only gets partial blame for how she's selling their crap.

                  Luckily Ghost is out now so the focus and dynamic can be shifted a bit, hopefully saving her character. I really like her in the series but she needs some help... lets not act like she'll be anything that puts her up for an Oscar any time soon.

                    Some of the things that happen in this show from a legal standpoint is just laughable. I'm like did they consult with anyone in the field before they wrote some of this stuff?...........................

                    EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

                      Tell me where I said people was watching the show for her acting? I SAID there's not alot of people complaining about her acting skills. I see a couple every once in a while on Twitter but nothing major.

                      I don't agree but I can understand your beef with the writers though.

                      Lol I don't want him to die but i wouldn't mind him getting shot or having a finger cut off or something.

                      I would rather ghost just give him an ole James Evans *** whooping but i know they won't do that on this show

                        The writing seems to become worse with each passing season. Like Tasha calling Simon for a loan when Ghost is hours away from returning home made no sense other than to create a storyline for the sake of creating one. Still a very entertaining show despite some soap opera-esk writing. Fits right into what I'm trying to watch while unwinding on a Sunday night.

                          Hey now, nobody ever said Black TV Shows were supposed to make sense 100% straight thru, lol.

                          I understand the beefs with it though because I've wondered the same thing at times.

                            I don't know why you're making such a big deal out of this but this is exactly what you said...

                            If most hated her acting like that they wouldn't really be watching
                            Maybe it wasn't meant that way but it is most definitely up for interpretation.

                            Either way, I'm not on twitter or anywhere else discussing Power so no idea what anyone else is saying. I'm just giving my own opinion (which has been shared in this thread... the one that matters for the discussion). If you've been enough places to reliably state that people talking about Power aren't complaining, then clearly you're a big fan who'd probably disagree with most criticism. But nobody's perfect and this show is far from it... still love it and won't miss an episode. It's ok.
