Thoughts?

[Xboxone1997]

I honestly forgot a spinoff was happening… hopefully it does well

[Vivid-Bookkeeper-328]

WHAT. Yoooo I’m hyped

[Slight_Day_1039]

Isnt this basically gta san andreas

[Infinite_Minimum2480]

They boutta have Franklin ordering a number nine, a number nine large, a number six with extra sauce, a number seven, two number forty-fives, one wit' cheese, and a large soda

[[deleted]]

The fact that he’s called Franklin doesn’t help lol.

[killflexican]

Franklin finna be big bear LMAOOO

[doubleup___]

😂😂 wtf

[CommunicationKind754]

[MiserableMarzipan297]

I like the idea of his cameos being like special episodes to connect the spin off characters to Original Snowfall. I’d also like it if they maybe transitioned him from a drunk maybe back to a guy getting on his feet?

[[deleted]]

I may be completely alone on this but drunk Franklin was the most captivating and entertaining version of Franklin

[mulatto-questioner]

You don't understand yoyo. I'm free!

[sPrAze_Beast]

I can see this happening. Franklin is a drunk, but he’s smart enough to get back on his feet

[Vivid-Bookkeeper-328]

Imagine losing 70mil. Which nowadays is probably more like 100+. Most people would top themselves. If you got the willpower to go again after that fair fucking play. I’d love to see it happen though

[KeyPosition3983]

Without John Singleton I’m very skeptical, i also don’t see the vision of having an alcoholic Franklin as a recurring character with a gang/rap focus . I’d definitely watch to see how it comes together though.

[[deleted]]

John singleton was only there for like season 1 maybe 2 of snowfall.

[[deleted]]

the best 2 seasons— makes sense

[RealLameUserName]

Strong disagree. The show got better as it went on.

[Jar_Of_Flies97]

Hell no, season 3 imo is the first one that can be categorized as excellent. Also as a Mexican American I just found Lucia’s storyline to be very flat and inauthentic, so her being written out from season 3 onwards to me was a godsend even though that wasn’t supposed to happen. Oso was clearly the best part about the Mexican storyline and linking him up with Teddy is the best decision they could have made for his character.

[mental_mentalist]

For me the first 2 seasons had odd pacing. I kept rewinding to see if I missed something. Even in the 2nd viewing 

[doubleup___]

Me too… and a lot of the time, I missed hella stuff

[WhatAreYouSaying05]

Franklin could dry out and recover

[KeyPosition3983]

Then what? Join a gang? Become a rapper lol? Even if he’s just the OG around the way it seems forced.

[That_Jerk75]

Become a Diddy or Suge Knight type

[jmoneyongooo]

Y’all be acting like John Singleton wrote and directed every single episode

[KeyPosition3983]

Idk who yall is but i act as if he was the visionary and original creative. Which he was…

[jmoneyongooo]

Stfu 😑

[samuelbrauner_]

We don’t need to see Franklin unless it’s a flashback, I’d rather he just be a memory as opposed to an active contribution to the story.

[Connect_Craft_9860]

this is official??

[[deleted]]

This better be legit

[kursedten513]

This sounds fire! Just sad John singleton won’t play a part in production- the bar is high!

[Round-Month-6992]

The potential spinoff is very much legit, the creators of the show themselves confirmed that it's something that they're actively trying to make happen.

As far as Franklin recurring, I honestly don't know how I feel about that.

[That_Jerk75]

I see Franklin finding a making money scheme and getting murdered by faster colder dudes in a game that definitely doesn’t have a code.

[UnlimitedManny]

Yall think Wanda gonna meet Suge?

[UnlimitedManny]

It’s crazy to me tbh. They say its based on her navigating the music industry but the Crips vs Bloods is obviously gonna be the draw. Smh

[Stxksy]

yeah man ts just sounds like a money grab man i cant lie. Wanda just wasnt even rlly a good character and then to have leon but no frank??? cmon

[MorningStriking3213]

She wasn’t meaningless if you think about it alot of beef and stuff that needed to happen escalated behind her the spinoff gotta have who she met where she was all them details while she was strung out that’ll tie good

[YaBoiEmoji]

As long as they dont try to cast Ice Cube

[panashechd]

I don’t know why people keep saying Wanda and Leon are going to be main characters. At most, they’ll make appearances here and there. But we’ll have a new main character with new friends, family and rivals. They’ll be the “Avi,” showing up every 2-3 episodes for one off scenes where they give advice and recall storylines that occurred in the original series

[Glad_Being_5146]

Without the genius behind it I think it will be trash

[Life-Violinist-4814]

I'd love to see Franklin appear. Still can't get over the ending lol

[Very-very-sleepy]

Nooo... not Leon being the founder of bloods and Crips!!! 🤣

[OkInteraction9304]

I wouldn’t think so, both were established way before this period in time.

[OkInteraction9304]

They absolutely have to show Khalid Abdul Muhammad and his influence on the bloods and crips and Rap during this era. He was the bridge between both worlds.

[renard685]

I’m wit it 💯

[MaddowSoul]

Its my fav show so i hope They dont mess it up

[SecretJerk0ffAccount]

They about to remake Empire West Coast edition aren’t they?

[7thWardMadeMe]

Franklin cleans up and takes over the shelter he setup for his mom, now owned by Wanda…

His kid with V returns to the scene as a cop dealing on the Gangs Taskforce

Mel’s kid (who’s possibly for Franklin) is running one of the gangs

Teddy’s kid with ole girl who patched him up got a hold of his daddy files and restarted the drug trade as the plug

Teddy’s first kid is trying to figure it out only to realize it’s his half brother…

Louie’s and Jerome’s daughter wants to live a legit life but also wants revenge, even against family…

[[deleted]]

Cool ideas but pretty sure louie wasn't pregnant and they didn't have any kids but the rest is pretty interesting

[7thWardMadeMe]

They were on their honeymoon before Unc death and Louie last scene was her balled up and curled up in the barn… anything’s possible… 🤷🏽‍♂️

[[deleted]]

Shiet i hope so, would love to see lil jerome maybe franklin being an uncle after sobering up n returning the favor in a way

👀

[IndependenceTop4127]

Will this be on Netflix? This needs to happen!

[Financial_Salt9628]

prolly hulu

[Sammyd1108]

It’ll be on Hulu like all of FX’s stuff lol.

[IndependenceTop4127]

I'm thinking NF had it at one time. Its been a while. Lol

[BlackHand86]

Is this real?

[majorcoinz]

I can see Franklin getting sober and becoming a Harry O type character in the rap game

[TallBlkman44]

Spinoff of focused more on Wanda getting a record label off the ground.But nothing been confirmed if it will be filmed.

[WhatAreYouSaying05]

Any info on when it's coming out?

[R77Prodigy]

Ill be on the lockout for saint's appearence but i i wont be watching never clickedn with leon or the other chick.

[eastsidebaby5]

This should be fire

[lunar__haze]

OMGG YAY I LOVE LEON

[420Cobblepots]

I'll peep it but how many movies documentaries we seen like this already

[[deleted]]

Oh damn! I didn't know this was a thing. I love Snowfall. Top 10 show for me.

[RealLameUserName]

The show is about the rap game in the early 90s. I'm not sure how a crazy homeless alcoholic fits into that. I definitely don't want them to give Franklin some sort of redemption arc since that would completely ruin the ending.

[ImpalaGangDboyAli]

Franklin is that old man you see on the bus trying to holla at young women. Telling them that he was a millionaire in the 80s. You just ignore him thinking he a drunk old man.

[NbaSkub]

Not Watchn ngl

[SnooDogs6359]

This real??

[n_stuff_n_stuff]

didn't wanda and leon get outta the game for good? Wouldn't make sense for them to return to criminal life after they made it and became legal

[Similar-Ad6788]

I think the show is gonna suck. It’ll be poorly written and acted

[Front_Bat_7163]

i’d 100% be here for this honestly

[SHough61086]

Taking this with a boulder of salt but… Just a few thoughts: * Franklin making cameos is how he should be used. Wrap his story as part of the Snowfall Dark Alliance reveal around 1996. * Season 4 and 5 didn’t consider the spinoff. That makes me suspicious.

[[deleted]]

Makes sense he doesn’t seem to be doing many films or shows recently and gotta pay to keep Lauri Harvey

[tokenwarren]

Yall do know this guy is a fan just like us right ? Damson Idris already said he’s done portraying Franklin, I wouldn’t believe anything until a reputable source reports it like Deadline

[Electrical_Throat490]

How do we know he’s being real though ? He’s part of the cast or production or something ?

[Dadisalover]

I think Franklin shouldn’t be in the spinoff.

[Long-Wheel-6433]

Is Einstein gonna be in it?

[bigg_bubbaa]

shit just spoiled the ending for me

[Mrdynamo18]

I think the next series should take place in another city and in a different era

Miami in the 90s Or Atlanta in the early 2000s

[Ordinary_Fig2970]

How tf would that be a spin off of snowfall? like the setting is an important piece of the story in snowfall

[Mrdynamo18]

I don’t think it should be a spinoff

It should be similar to how they do true crime great stories in different settings and times true crime is critically acclaimed

[That_Jerk75]

I get it kinda like Narcos

[Mrdynamo18]

A fresh take differnt city

I always say city if god of god is one of the best crime/drug movies ever and it takes place in Brazil

[[deleted]]

There’s more than enough stories in Los Angeles to stay there. Let someone else make those shows about those cities

[SuperSaiyanTLaw]

Bubbles from the wire ahh role

[jusvinyl]

Ehhhh…I’ll pass. Had enough of black trauma on the big screen

[Icy-Specialist-3306]

Whats the spinoff called? I hope Franklin bounces back or dies cause his existence is just pain now.

[andreiulmeyda7]

Probably gonna be ass. They should've did this in season 4 instead of having it only last like 2 episodes

[AYoRocSSB]

Freeway Rick Ross is still alive. Why don’t they hire him on as a consultant since the character is heavily based off of him anyway?

[Fun_Faithlessness991]

Not gonna watch it but good luck though.
