tv series about two partners in a drug distribution business

exec produced by rapper 50 cent


saw the first episode and it looks like a b level crime film stretched out to series length

but it's actually not bad


writing is not good but interesting casting



Main character Omari

It's not as bad as I expected. I'm gonna give it a few more episodes to see if it becomes predictable - I won't be specific to avoid spoilers. Plus I'll watch anything with Kathrine Narducci ... mmmmmmm Charmaine Bucco.

Last night's episode (the season finale) was quite something. Some twists I didn't see coming.

I'm about halfway through the second season

interesting that Serbian and Albanian crime organizations are featured

good idea....it's different

Why do they have Jamie Hector aka guy in my avatar, playing a Haitian character with the WORST Haitian accent I've ever heard in my life


Did Tommy actually tell him to "stop speaking Haitian"?

lol

season 2 is definatley worth watching. Season 1 just felt like it was gonna be another platform for 50 to pump his music.

I've been watching it since the start. Yeah, it's a great show. At first I didn't like the whole "Entirely legitimate and by all appearances respected individual, but actually the biggest drug dealer in NYC" theme, but the writers really played it out good.


I wonder what Tommy's going to do. I can't wait for season 3. Also, I have a feeling Lobos will be pretty pissed off.

On the count of Lobos, I find it kind of weird that he's an openly gay, powerful cartel member. It doesn't really sit so well with me.

He's being hunted by the other cartel members, which is why he can't go back to Mexico. He still has his supply chain and everything that makes him a crucial asset to Ghost and the other dealers in NY, but he's sort of independent in terms of the Cartel. I didn't like the first season of this show, but the second season really began to draw me in, Tommy is easily my favorite character and I really want Ghost to get his for giving Tommy up the way he did. Even though he got Tommy out, it was all a scheme so Tommy wouldn't find out that it was Ghost who set him up in the first place.

But they went overboard with the ending of season two. I'm supposed to believe Kanaan is still alive after being stabbed repeatedly by Ghost and left to bleed out, and managed to escape the fire Ghost started to get rid of the evidence? No freaking way.

Where was it indicated that Kanaan is still alive? I thought he was burned in the fire.

@Clean,

If you recorded it or have it on demand...In the final scene....pay attention to what the firefighters say.

I missed it the first time, myself.


OR basically they said that though the building was abandoned...the plumbing was till up to code....including the sprinkler system..which is why the building was still standing even after Ghost's arson attempt. They also said that markings on the door showed that somebody forced their way OUT of the building.


I didn't like it either.

that was all a bit sloppy if you ask me should have made sure he was dead because the small chance he lived would not be worth it in real life 2 in the head and he would have been burning on the building, this would only happen on tv and if a major star was going to loose their slot, maybe 50 could have come back as a ghost no pun intended i bet that was discussed at the writers meeting but they opted for this weak plot line to save his character who is also producing the series.

This season has a different feel than the other 2, but still a great show.

The introduced a new character that will certainly get an Emmy nomination.

i love this show. its good. few things that bother me. joseph sikora is great as tommy but they over do the white boy growing up in the hood accent and talk. i grew up in paterson, nj. i speak very street when im around that enviorment but not on some cornball shit like tommy often does. i mean he does a great job but then theres times where im like " bro cut it the fuck out." but overall this is a good show no doubt.

100% behind that, and its a little slow this season and really if you screwed over a drug kingpin as he has i think tommy would have been dead 2 seconds later, not like he walks around with a bodyguard or anything for being a drug lord of NYC....good show though, loved the ghost scene from last episode

Bobby,

I know what you're talking about...I know the exact scenes and lines...when he told his man to "slow down,tiger" about the massage parlor girl...I cringed too.

Merlino,

I have to stop watching week to week because the story lines have the characters moving and acting in ways that aren't consistent with who they are. Like what you brought up about Tommy.

See you guys here after the finale.

Holly is extremely annoying. As far as Tommy goes... As much as he tries too hard with the lingo and whatnot, he's still my favorite character on the show. Interested to see how it'll work out with Kanaan.

As far as the last episode goes, what the fuck was with the writers? Every few minutes you either had half naked/naked chicks or just people fucking. Lol.

CB,

I can't think of a tv character that was more annoying than Holly is.

Last episode they threw in the nudity to mask the fact that the writing was poor that week.
