Lmao 😂 When Damson said people used to fast forward through the white people stuff only to watch the blacks on the screen was hilarious! 🤣 I can believe some cats do that because I used to do the same thing with The Wire season 2‼️🤣🤣🤣

I’ll give it 5 to 6 because most shows only last 5 to 6 season before they start getting stale and repetitive
Amin's performance and accent is a whole other thing. It's Texas origin, transplant to LA with his older sister, etc,.. it deserves more props.
Singleton would be so proud of them. they're really putting their blood sweat and tears i n every performance
I’ve watched all the seasons at least 6 times and every time I’m blown away. These guys are brilliant in these roles.

I love how Damson supports Amin's acting skills. They tried to downplay it in the beginning of interview...and Damson kept coming back with how hard it was, due to former NY actors failing at it. But, Amin nailed it.

Amin does an awesome job no1 else would fit nor pull off the Uncle Rome character like he has... León & all the family characters are what make the show they are slowly revealing these characters in depth ..Damson is scary creepy, the mother is a whole other type of scary & makes you see hw Franklin is turning as frightening as he is from nice guy or push over, uncle Rome want money & live in some peace & his girl is very street savy w/a brain 🧠 tht combo is 🔥 and she was underestimated for a while, I’m waiting to see more about peaches Rome, the mom & *Franklin ending in season4 I knew he could walk he be playing roles and testing folk and analyzing ppl non stop* ..& *I think he (Franklin) just learned he has to watch everyone around him & is about to start ruling his crew through fear! & the mother may join in!* I believe she knew they’d never leave the father alive & just got him away so the agency could kill him w/o Franklins knowledge & Franklin would still be safe!
A movie every show is a perfect description. I said a finale every show but either way this show is amazing. It demonstrates The genius of John Singleton and everyone else. RIP
Snowfall is based on Freeway Rick's life & he gave John Singleton a lot of the stories. Freeway Rick has talked about it in several interviews.

Too true! At the end of the day, us Afr Amer Californians, New Yorkers, Chicagoans, etc., all migrated from the south, so we carry some of the southern culture which allows us all to relate, but we’re now 3 to 4 generations removed from the south, so we’ve added our current regions flair.
