If you’ve got made it this far, you are probably only watching to see who dies at the top of the show. We’ve got TWO episodes left and I don’t know how that is going to finish. I do not actually have a clue anymore. The amount of bad decisions each predominant solid member makes is astounding.

For example, Cane goes to marry Noma to be the front man for her American business interests. That cannot end badly, right? Honestly, for many of the show, Cane has mostly been the one whose moral compass has never wavered — he’s a soldier who’s in it to win until he dies. He kills those that must die and operates solely by the code of the road. His motivations are clear. Everyone else is actually in limbo, though.

But Cane marrying Noma is just… weird. I get it from Noma’s perspective, but for the lifetime of me I am unable to understand what Cane gains from this arrangement, apart from trying to indicate Noma that he’s willing to do anything for her, but he never appeared to need that confirmation. Monet and Tariq are equally confused (as is Davis) and I even have to say I’m in the identical boat as them. Effie is correct to finish things with Cane at this point, since he’s still attempting to play either side together with her and Noma. (Also, Effie’s mother randomly showing up on Stansfield’s campus asking for money? In episode eight? A brand new plot? WHY!?!!) Again, for a cat who has mostly all the time appeared to be on the appropriate side of the sport, this marriage to Noma is weird. Maybe the marriage will get shot down or something, but Cane, man, is doing higher.

Speaking of people that need to enhance, Brayden must be put out of his misery. He’s a MAVEN of bad decisions. So he already got high and ruined his girlfriend’s band’s night by forcing her band to finish their relationship that allowed them to sell drugs at shows. Dude Stokely said it well: “I don’t know if we have fans or if we have friends!” Anyway, Brayden’s girlfriend overdosed on fentanyl-laced cocaine and ended up within the hospital, which began a CHAIN ​​of bad decisions for Brayden. First, he called Tariq so that they could find the guy who sold her the bad coke… “to scare him.” They ran off to scare the guy, and Brayden shot him. Obviously, bad idea. But to make matters worse, he went back to the hospital where his girlfriend woke up from her coma AND TOLD HER THAT HE’D EFFECTIVELY MURDERED THAT GUY.

Le sigh. Tariq can have to kill Brayden in some unspecified time in the future, and truthfully, it will be the appropriate thing to do.

Poor Diana is attempting to get pregnant with Tariq again to fill the void in her heart. I’m not even sure what else to say about that. Obviously she’s going through a really traumatic time in her life, so she has grace at her disposal, but Diana, you damsel in distress, just stop! Especially because Monet and Tariq are cold-blooded; when talking about Diana’s struggles, they were each like, “She’s got to deal with this, but what about Carter!!! How do we get him out of here?!” They each appear to recover from their loss pretty quickly.

Carter someway turned Felicia’s murder right into a automobile accident, which does not sit well with the remaining of the unit. But if there’s one thing Carter has shown us, it’s that he’ll make more out of a nasty situation. His solution to most problems appears to be to shoot himself out of it. Forget about cleansing up, just kill people. That’s why Brayden suggested Tariq not go to war with the NYPD, because, you understand, the NYPD has tens of 1000’s of cops, and Tariq has… Brayden? I hate them a lot. Well, mostly Brayden.

Speaking of Carter and the drug game, Dru is currently running some cases and doing pretty much. I do not think that is going to finish well for him. I do not know why, but he cannot make it to the top of the last episode, can he? Carter has the upper hand on Noma due to Davis, Tariq, and Monet, and is near getting all the data he must do MORE damage. Davis is in a critical phase and puts Noma on high alert, organising what may very well be an epic battle between Carter and Noma, but, I mean, could it? Nothing is sensible and all the things remains to be on the table.

Look, at this point I am unable to determine what I need to do with Tariq. It looks like he might go to jail due to the tape Carter has, but I’m assuming there is a universe where Tariq licks hundreds of thousands of dollars in money or something, goes after his mother and Rayna, after which they move to Mexico perpetually.

I do not know, but I really like the ridiculousness of it. It’s not that I won’t stop watching this show, it’s that I am unable to stop watching this show. Uff, chile.

I won’t hold you to it, but “Power Book II: Ghost” is frustrating me. We’re three episodes away from the series finale — not the season finale, but — and as a substitute of solving problems and taking Aaliyah’s (RIP) advice in regards to the need for an answer, our most important characters are finding trouble to get themselves into.

Hey Panama, what are you talking about?

I’m glad you asked.

So dirty cop Det. Lewis (who’s Felicia on this episode; I’ll be switching back and forth) beats up Diana on the road in New York, causing Diana to lose her baby. Of course, Diana wants revenge. This is similar Diana, remember, who spent the higher a part of several seasons telling us she wanted NOTHING to do with the sport. It is smart for her life; the life Monet forced upon her family cost her father, brother/cousin, friends, and sanity. Diana wanted to go to Spelman; as a substitute, she got stuck in Stansfield and got pregnant with Tariq St. Patrick, who literally jumped out of the frying pan. But the cop hurt her, so she wants revenge. Except Diana sucks at hardcore life; as a substitute of shooting Felicia like she must have done outright, she had to do this thing where you explain to the person you are going to kill why they are going to die. So as a substitute of shooting her, Diana gets right into a fight with Felicia and then hits Felicia in the pinnacle multiple times with a cast-iron skillet.

Task completed. New problems arose.

Of course, as you may imagine, the entire episode is in regards to the Tejada family and Tariq trying to kill this cop who’s involved in Detective Carter’s task force. Yo, Detective Carter is literally the worst boss ever. So he ropes in a few of his guys to let drug dealers sell drugs and then kill other guys. But also, Detective Carter kills Congressman Rashad Tate’s brother, Detective Kamal Tate, and then blames the murder on individuals who couldn’t have done it, causing just a little little bit of friction in his own camp.

Yo, let this be a lesson to anyone who has to work their way up through a pyramid scheme; the home of cards all the time collapses, which is clearly what’s going to occur here. I actually have little question that Detective Carter will likely be killed by someone, I just do not know who will do the killing.

By the time I get to Dru Tejada, I can already see the top in sight. Felicia (Detective Lewis), who sent Diana to kill Zion within the last episode, got a recording (so silly) of Tariq and Brayden killing him. Diana after all blamed Tariq for the murder so Diana would not have to. Anyway, because it happened in a police secure house, Detective Lewis has the entire thing on camera. Detective Carter didn’t know she blamed Diana OR that she stomped on her, so he’s rightfully pissed. Oh well, he sees the recording and keeps it. I think this little plot device will come back to bite Tariq and Brayden within the ass eventually. I think Tariq will kill Detective Carter, but not before the recording results in the hands of the police, sending Tariq to prison for all times. Although on this twisted world let’s fast forward and see that Councilman Tate is now president and finds out that Carter killed his brother (Tariq) and pardons Tariq who then opens a series of automotive dealerships in upstate New York, but I’m getting just a little ahead of myself.

Monet is a large number. Blah blah blah. Let’s speak about Dru Tejada. When this show began, Dru was an excellent kid from a foul family who, despite wanting to join the family business, really wanted to be an artist and love his different faces. In the course of who, Monet turned Dru right into a future franchise assassin. Seriously, forget Jason Bourne and Jack Reacher, we’d like a Dru Tejada franchise where he’s an antihero who kills drug dealers in an attempt to defeat the demons his mother has fed him since he was a baby. Dru is here, killing people in prison like a professional. He’s also doing it so tactically – Dru definitely has a future within the mercenary game if he makes it out alive. In fact, Dru and Cane could do a buddy-murder movie and spend the identical period of time fighting one another. I’m just saying that to me, it’s crazy how Dru Tejada’s character arc is. Everyone else is just about the identical as they were at the start of the show, just in numerous situations. Dru is the just one who has transformed into the version of herself she least wanted to be. I hate that about him, but could we get a Dru spin-off? Probably not.

Effie is finally going to Stanford, if she doesn’t die first. Hurray, success story…possibly.

We’ve got three episodes left, we’d like to start eliminating the vital bodies ASAP – NOT ALL of them will make it to the top alive.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Maya Rudolph won her sixth profession title Emma On Saturday night, she took home the trophy for Best Character Voice Acting for her work on Big Mouth on the Creative Arts Emmy Awards, while Angela Bassett won her first award for narrating the National Geographic show Queens.

A former and future “Saturday Night Live” star, Rudolph is nominated for 3 consecutive Emmy Awards. Her voiceover work as Hormone Monstress in the Netflix animated series “Big Mouth” earned her 4 Emmy Awards.

“I’m really proud to be a part of this show,” she said. “It humanizes being human.”

She became moved as she spoke in regards to the privilege she has of with the ability to do what she loves in life.

“I’m crying because I’m going through menopause,” Rudolph said.

She won the primary of the two-day Creative Arts Emmy Awards, which honor artistic and technical achievements in television and are a precursor to the foremost award (*6*)Emmy Awards ceremony, hosted by Dan and Eugene Levywhich is able to air on September 15 at 8:00 PM ET on ABC.

Bassett apparently took home the award for Best Narrator, a category that is frequently star-studded but in which the winner, like last 12 months’s Barack Obama, rarely appears.

“Oh my god, wow, my first Emmy,” Bassett said with emotion. “I couldn’t be more excited and grateful.”

Bassett said backstage that she was drawn to the wildlife documentary project because of its all-female production team, a rarity in the medium.

“It just touched my heart,” she said. “So I said yes.”

Bassett has been nominated for an Oscar twice and received an honorary Oscar earlier this 12 months.

Other winners included the recently retired Pat Sajakwho won the award for Best Game Show Host for his final season on “Wheel of Fortune.” It was his fourth win in the category and first since 1998.

“Saturday Night Live” found success in the craft categories, winning six awards, including those for makeup and production design.

Rudolph won two Emmys as a solid member and was nominated for 2 more for her work hosting the sketch institute last season. The Emmys can be presented Sunday.

She will return in the autumn to play the vice chairman. Kamala Harris on the fiftieth season of “SNL” just a few weeks before the election.

“I feel like I’m somehow connected to an amazing time in this country and an excitement I haven’t felt in a long time,” she said backstage Saturday.

She can be nominated on the foremost Emmy Awards for best actress in a comedy for her Apple TV+ series “Loot.” Her probabilities of winning the award are slim, with Jean Smart for “Hacks” and Ayo Edebiri for “Bear” which takes first place in the comedy category with 23 nominations.

TV

Ron Howard’s documentary “Jim Henson Idea Man” won 4 times, while “Welcome to Wrexham” won thrice, including best unstructured reality show. “Shark Tank” won best structured reality show. In an awards crossover, the Oscars telecast won 4 Emmys, including best live special.

Dick Van Dykewho turns 99 next month, could have stolen the show when “Dick Van Dyke 98 Years Of Magic” won for best pre-recorded variety program.

Van Dyke did a brief dance and announced “this hurts” later. As the winners were played offstage, he said, “I’d like to take this opportunity to invite you to my memorial. I don’t have a date yet, but I don’t feel great.”

Van Dyke became the oldest person to win an Emmy for a daytime television show when he accepted the award in June for his appearance on “Days of Our Lives.”

The highest nominated in all the season, “Shogun” scored a victory of sorts Saturday when the team that creates the post-show footage won an Emmy. The FX series itself is nominated for 25 Emmys. Seventeen of those can be presented Sunday, with the series specializing in scripted television.

Many big names, including Oscar winners, will compete in the Creative Arts Emmys on Sunday Jamie Lee Curtis AND Da’Vine Joy Randolph and nominated for an Oscar Ryan Gosling.
