FX’s hit series ‘Snowfall‘ was instantly renewed for Season 5 in the midst of Season 4 airing, and while the show just wrapped its latest season a few months ago, fans won’t be waiting too long to see what’s next for Franklin & Co.
The Damson Idris-led series will be returning Wednesday, February 23, for the Season 5 premiere. Season 5 is raising the stakes even higher after its fourth season was the cable net’s most-watched series of 2021. We also have a little teaser of what’s to come.
Set in the summer of 1986, Snowfall follows Franklin Saint (Damson Idris) and his entire family, who are rich beyond their wildest dreams and on the verge of having everything they’ve ever wanted — right as the ground begins to fall out from under their feet. The sudden death of basketball star Len Bias makes the rock cocaine epidemic front-page news, the target of both Democrat and Republican lawmakers. Law enforcement is on a warpath, and the militarization of the LAPD continues as police and politicians decide the only way to deal with this growing scourge is through force — and the creation of the new CRASH (Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums) units.
The streets of South Central Los Angeles never have been so dangerous as the Saint family navigates the police, the warring gangs and the CIA. Amidst all of this, the biggest threat the family faces is one another as they try not to let greed, resentment and ego tear them all apart.
