Raising Kanan fans left angry as Starz delays Episode 8 until this date
Power Book III is hurtling towards its next season finale, but there’s a problem.Raising Kanan Season 4 Episode 8is nowhere to be seen this week, and fans are incredibly frustrated.
Up until this point, thebinge-worthy TV showhas aired every week since the beginning of March without fail. As of Episode 7, Kanan’s been left looking for O-Cee, Raq and Marvin are desperately looking for answers, and Unique is taking the streets of Queens for himself.
But if you’ve been waiting for the follow-up at its usual time – April 25, if we’re going by its weekly schedule – there’s a snag.
As you might have noticed, Starz has delayed Raising Kanan Season 4 Episode 8, but thankfully there’s already a new date for when you canactuallycatch thenew TV show.
Raising Kanan Season 4 Episode 8 is now delayed by a week
Power Book III: Raising Kanan Season 4 Episode 8, titled ‘Truth of the Matter’, airsMay 2, 2025, on Starz at8pm ET.
Annoyingly, there’s no official reason why Episode 8 has been pushed on a week, and according to socials, the show is “on pause.” However, this is a trend we’ve been seeing with popular TV shows across multiple streamers and broadcasters.
As of writing,9-1-1 Season 8andChicago PD Season 12both have a week’s worth of delays too, with neither broadcaster giving a reason why.
Common sense tells us that in typical circumstances, this is to make way for sports or live event coverage. However, Starz is a standalonestreaming service, meaning it can basically do what it wants whenever it wants. Instead, it could be down to other content being released at the same time or Raising Kanan Season 4 needed to finish on a specific date.

Regardless, fans are fuming that they’re having to wait longer than originally thought.
“I f**king hate the stupid break weeks. So damn dumb,” onepostedon Reddit, with a second agreeing, “This is such a joke. We wait years for 10 episodes then they have the nerve to pause it in the middle for god knows what reason. I’m starting to get tired of Power.”
When Season 4 Episode 8 does hit Starz, we’re in for an intense one. While Raq’s set on “changing the game all over again,” her enemies are set to “make her pay.” A gun is seen shooting out the windows of a car in the final trailer shot, but we don’t know who is shooting… or if anyone is left alive in the car.
The drama is about to hit Kanan like a truck,putting two and two together that Raq was the person responsible for Fame’s death. She’s got her eye on “getting back in the big leagues,” but at what cost?
