"Snowfall" is a drama set against the infancy of the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles and its ultimate radical impact on the culture as we know it. The story follows numerous characters on a violent collision course, including Franklin Saint, a young street entrepreneur on a quest for power; Gustavo "El Oso" Zapata, a Mexican wrestler caught up in a power struggle within a crime family; Teddy McDonald, a CIA operative running from a dark past who begins an off-book operation to fund the Nicaraguan Contras; and Lucia Villanueva, the self-possessed daughter of a Mexican crime lord. In "Snowfall," people are working toward their ultimate goals of money, power, and influence as 1984 begins in Los Angeles.

There's a lot of great, tight, entertaining plotting in these first few episodes.

The flow is fast-paced, the stakes are already high, and it's got me looking forward to more.

I don't know, I'm kind of confused with where they're trying to take this show. I think that the writing got worse after season 2 and it feels like they don't really know what direction to move the story in. I'm looking forward to watching season 5 though, hoping that it somehow gets better.

Snowfall was not a true story, however it was entertaining to watch, and the 80's vibe was "dope" since I grew up in the 80's.
