Great Series based around New York City - Characters keep getting stronger and the love triangle between "Ghost" and his 2 women is intriguing and gripping.
"Ghost" flitters between honest businessman and drug dealer -
Modern day "Godfather" style series - Great watch !

So I started watching this with high expectations, I had many recommendations from friends. I blitzed through the first season and thought it was good, not amazing but very watchable. I then found myself hating the 2 main characters (Ghost and Angela) which then in turn made me hate the show. When you start to hate a show for those reasons then you start picking up on the flaws. For me, every twist and turn in the story line that everyone is like 'woooow that's madness' made me go 'meh, I kinda saw it coming'. However I powered on (pun intended) and forced myself to watch till mid-end of season 3 before I had enough. They kill off characters so quickly that you're stuck with connecting with the 5 main characters (Ghost, Angela, Tasha, Tommy and 50 Cent's character), and when you hate 2 out of 5 of those people and not particularly invested in the others, it's bad viewing. Visually it's fine, good settings etc. If you're planning to watch it with parents, don't - there is A LOT of sexual scenes in it which can make for uncomfortable viewing. I learnt that the hard way by watching it at work on my desktop.. Acting is okay - again, meh. Content is dragged out and ripped off from previous, better series of similar topics. So yeah, all in all, not something to recommend to a friend in my opinion.
