Tbh, the original hook of the show was so simple but intriguing: peak of his powers drug kingpin in a lifeless marriage wants to leave it all behind to make an honest living with his childhood sweetheart. Add in the backdrop of big city nightlife at a time (2014) where clubbing was still a thing/hadn't fully fizzled out, and it was lightning in a bottle.

But that type of premise has a shelf life. At some point the MC's story arc needs to reach it's logical conclusion: either he gets the happy ending or it's over for him. And at that point, does what's left of the show just turn into typical drug dealing/war on the streets song n dance

GHOST WAS ABOUT TO
BECOME LT GOV
AND RUN OFF WITH HIS NEW bytch.

THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED
AND TARIQ COULD HAVE STILL
HAD HIS SHOW
WHERE GHOST FORCES HIM
TO GO TO SCHOOL TO
GET HIS TRUST FUND
WHILE HES DOING STREET shyt
ON THE SIDE

:devil:
:evil:

This spinoff still makes no remote sense whatsoever considering they did a terrible job of mending the relationship.

Tommy has every reason to put a bullet in both Tasha and Tariq's head for pinning Ghost murder on him and essentially ruing his life in the process.

Ghost death and season 1 of Book II was essentially for nothing as there were no consequences whatsoever and it was all for naught and the new showrunners had to come up with a wacky way to fix it.
