Finally! Power Returns July 1 and Is Already Renewed for Season 6
Did you miss Ghost and Tommy and Tasha and the gang? (Not Kanan, though; no one misses Kanan.) I know I did. Well, they, and the hit Starz show Power, are all coming back on Sunday, July 1, at 9 p.m. If you’re pumped for the upcoming season 5, be prepared to be even more…

50 Cent Gets Big Dollars to Keep Power at Starz
Well, I guess all you fans of the hit television show Power will have to keep that Starz subscription a little bit longer, because according to 50 Cent, the network just cut him a check so, so big, it gave him the shakes, ensuring that Ghost and … ummm … the rest of the characters…

50 Cent Urges Fans to Cut the Cord With Starz, Takes His New Show to BET
Rapper and producer 50 Cent, who doesn’t seem to function without having some sort of beef with someone, is at it with Starz this time. In response to the supposed disrespect that he has received from the network regarding Power, the show he executive-produces, Fiddy took to social media Sunday, according to the Jasmine Brand,…

Watch: Is Power Better TV Than Game of Thrones?
There’s just something about the Starz TV drama Power that sticks to your ribs. It could be the beautiful cast (minus Angela—we hate her). Or the talented cameo stars (rest in peace, Charlie Murphy).

Very few shows can entice me to spend more money on what already feels like an oppressive cable bill. However, when the press connect does not come through, I will circle back to Showtime in order to get my Homeland fix. But honestly (truly), no show really makes me hit “order” as fast as Starz’s…

Angela Valdes Gotta Go. Along With Everybody Else But Tasha and Tommy. Kthxbi.
Do you watch Power? I watch Power. I hate Angela Valdes. She must be stopped. She must die. I didn’t always feel this way about Assistant United States Attorney Angela Valdes. Before I wanted her to die, I was rather okay with her morally bankrupt homewrecker role on the show. See, Ghost, or Jamie (St. Patrick)…

Starz’s American Gods Boasts a Hot Leading Man and a Goddess Who Swallows Men With Her Vagina
It’s hard to explain American Gods, Starz’s bold new series, to most. Steeped in fantasy, mythology and Americana, American Gods explores immigrants and the gods and spirits they brought with them in a unique fashion. Apparently the modern world, with its new technology and other distractions, has diminished the significance of the old gods, and…

A Great Black TV Show Is Suffering From Survivor’s Remorse
For the first time in several years, there are black-centered sitcoms that don’t make me want to cry out to Negro Jesus in agony. Up until very recently, all we had were the Tyler Perry-helmed shows, which worked for certain sects within our community, but like the reality-TV shows I actively consume on VH1 and Bravo,…

#PowerThursdays: Tommy’s the Boss
Power is back (well, almost)! The provocative, smart and inherently street series returns July 17, and in honor of season 3, The Root is bringing you exclusive interviews with the cast. Omari Hardwick fans, rejoice. First up on our roster is Joseph Sikora, also known as the big, bad Tommy Egan. He was once the…
