September TV Finales - Power Book III: Raising Kanan - Season One

Power Book III: Raising Kanan is the third spin-off of the long-running series, Power. Following Power Book II: Ghost this is not a continuation on the original Power series. Power Book III was renewed for a second season ahead of its premiere. Good news for Stan as this is one of the biggest titles on Stan right now.

With two more spin offs in the works this gives Stan almost year round content. Power Book II: Ghost is also due to return in November of this year.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan is a prequel set in the 1990s that will chronicle the early years of Kanan Stark (the character first played by executive producer Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson), on how he got in the drug game.


Kanan's mom Patina Miller as Raquel Thomas steals every scene she is in. With power suits and real big bo$$ energy. Miller slays. Mekai Curtis stars as lead Kanan Stark, while Joey Bada$$ as Unique, Omar Epps as Malcolm Howard & AnnaLynne McCord as Toni Deep also star.

It took me a while to get into the third Power story, however once I did, I was sold. Its an ace 90's throwback with the usual Power amount of sex, drugs and drama.

Starz have a winning franchise on their hands with Power. I have a feeling season two will be back mid 2022, I for one will be picking this bad boy back up.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan streams alongside the other Power dramas on Stan in Australia.
