FX has a thing for gritty programming, so at first blush its new Snowfall TV show — from creators John Singleton, Eric Amadio, and Dave Andron — looks like it will fit right in. While it is yet to be renewed for a second season, the California Film Commission has already awarded the production a tax credit for season two, so Snowfall is well-positioned. Still, it remains to be seen how it will do in the ratings. Will Snowfall be cancelled or renewed for second season? Stay tuned.
A period crime drama, Snowfall stars Damson Idris, Sergio Peris-Mencheta, Carter Hudson, Emily Rios, Michael Hyatt, Amin Joseph, Angela Lewis, Isaiah John, Juan Javier Cárdenas, Alon Moni Aboutboul, Malcolm Mays, and Filipe Valle Costa. The FX TV series kicks off in 1983 Los Angeles, at the dawn of the crack cocaine epidemic. The story centers on diverse characters, from an L.A. family, to a Nicaraguan Contra soldier, a sidelined CIA Agent, an Israeli expat, and a Mexican crime family. Expect these characters to crash into each other’s lives in a brutal fashion.

I thought it was great…it taught me a lot too…about a world I know little about. It is the only series my husband and I watch together….we love it!
Hell yea season 2 should be renewed. The show is dope just like the concept of the show!!!
I don’t know if the writers planned it this way but Franklin is definitely the draw to the show. He strikes me as a Denzel Washington American Gangster type of individual. His expressions are right on target when it comes to emanating his doubts and his perseverance in achieving his goals. In the scene where he makes Ray Ray do the killing his facial expressions right after showed a hint of horror at the outcome. An eternal struggle to become hard (which is demanded in this profession) but not there yet. Personally everytime the subplots come up I sit waiting… Read more »
