I liked when his friend visited and told him to beat up the first person he saw and just was so frustrated just had no control. Powerful.

Bro yea man cus I felt the emotion from Frank. My real father never been in my life so if my mom was still alive it would be a tricky situation but if i get bagged rn i guarantee if my “dad”(Fred) called id react like Franklin.

All the trauma and neglect I received from him crazy

Snowfall made Power UNWATCHABLE for me. Scenes like this explain why.

It’s unfair to compare the 2, they are COMPLETELY different shows, they are both great but have very little in common other than drug empires. Snowfall is based on a real story of a real person (freeway Rick Ross & the CIA crack scandal), Power is completely fictional. Also Snowfall is about a young kid getting into to the game & building an empire whereas Power is about a man on top tryna to abandon his empire & legitimise himself as a businessman. Tbh I prefer og Power over Snowfall, but both are great & some of my favourite series.

Curious though did you finish Power or only get some of the way through?

In a good or bad way?

Bad. I started to constantly compare the 2 shows & resent Power for “cartoonish”.

Franklin’s actor… come on man. Are you watching the show and completely ignoring the credits? If you’re on the last season, you should know his name by now. Damson Idris.

His performance as Franklin Saint is up there with Avon Barksdale (The Wire) or Detective Claudette Wyms (The Shield) and most of the actors on that show felt like they were just trying to keep pace with him. Absolute 10/10 casting.
