Power Book IV: Force

Interesting! I think it's better than Tariq side of book II. Just need a little more time to build characters surrounding the city. I think Tommy is gonna make a blast in Chicago.

Tommy is back, that Power Book II with Tariq is unwatchable, is has nothing from Ghost charisma... Can't wait to see Tommy's new adventures, hopefully without Tariq's face anywhere in it.

Just straight fun. For those that liked the slower original, this might be too bombastic for you.

But let's be real; Power was far from realistic, unlike The Wire or other crime related dramas.

This is a more fast paced, exciting adrenaline rush.

And I really enjoyed it the most due to Joseph Sikoras Tommy Egan. Just a balls to the wall dude.

It is cartoonish but in the right way. Far better than mumble mouth Tariq series.

Beats PBI II and III... by a noticeable margin.

The story line is way more focused. Yes, there are peripheral characters as in the other "books", but here, we have a more singular approach, where Tommy is the focal point and everything that happens kind of revolves around him.

And it works. Well.

It's kind of like Howard Stern - "you just wanna tune in to see what he says or does next."

This was sorely lacking in the previous 3 series, which were structured by overly drawn out plot lines involving too many characters.

In my opinion, this is the "book" they should have come out with first, and just ran with it.

This could easily run a few seasons, and it's a solid 8/10.

I rate the previous "books" a 6.5/10 comparatively.

Plus, ...that car !!

The power franchise is the most addictive tv out there. I didn't think anything would compare to the original show but FORCE and Tommy have the same intense and powerful story and you could hope for. The show has not gone soft, which I originally thought might be the case, shows have a tendency to start off strong and slowly fade. Not this one! Force is is action packed and has all the violence and dark feel that made you fall in love with power in the first place. If you like action packed underworld thriller shows you can't stop watching till it's 5 am and you have work at 6, then this show is for you.
