“Power” isn’t slowing down the expectations and craziness set to go down this Sunday. The Starz series has treated fans to a sneak peek at what’s happening 72 hours from now.
On Thursday, the “Power” social media channels released a 30-second teaser clip showing everything from Dre still breathing to Angela’s team wanting another stab at James St. Patrick.
The St. Patricks continue to mourn Raina’s death while Dre keeps order in his organization. Don't miss an all-new #PowerTV this Sunday on the @STARZ App: https://t.co/Ay34fPANta pic.twitter.com/z3EkG0QfUT

A few things we learned about #PowerTV #PowerPremiere
1. Tariq and Dre needs they ass lit up.
2. Angela doesnt know how computers work even signing in as another user.
3. Tommy getting some from Keisha.
4. Councilman Tate is a slimeball.
5. This season will be great!— #WAP (@mrs_scorpiot) July 2, 2018

I have never hated a TV “kid” more than Tariq. He’s surpassed Joffrey. It’s that deep.
