Now, Singleton's last TV project is nearing its conclusion, its core characters have either evolved beyond recognition or been damaged beyond recovery, and all that's left to ask is: How does this wild ride end?

'The greatest thing is he left us all the codes to carry on, and he left us with a passion,' Idris told The Source in 2021. But, his impact on the scintillating period drama was felt long after his death. While Snowfall is Singleton's brainchild, the Academy Award-winning director passed away weeks before the premiere of Season 3. Through Franklin, Snowfall viewers got a candid look at how the United States' war on drugs eroded the humanity of anyone associated- dealer, user, or bystander.

Thanks to CIA operative turned obsessive drug dealer Teddy McDonald (Carter Hudson) supplying Franklin with the purest cocaine straight from Colombia, Franklin became rich, and the government got their war funding at the expense of too many dead bodies to count. What started as an earnest attempt to rise out of poverty to chase the American dream of financial stability for him and his family slowly and terrifyingly morphed into Franklin being an initially unwitting participant in the United States government and President Ronald Reagan's covert attempt at funding Nicaraguan Contra rebels' fight against Cuban-backed Sandinistas trying to bring communism to the region.

Centered on Franklin Saint (Damson Idris), Snowfall has spent five seasons paralleling Franklin's growth from teenager to a man with his ascension from impressionable helper of his uncle Jerome Saint's (Amin Joseph) street cannabis business to the biggest seller of crack cocaine in all of Los Angeles. Set in 1980s Los Angeles during the cocaine epidemic, Snowfall is quite literally a coming-of-age story on crack.

The show made leading man Damson Idris an international star and gave FX its most-watched show ever while not being afraid to make fans fall in love with characters right before they pump their chest full of bullets. 'I really wanted to see the transition from what we saw in my first movie, Boyz n the Hood, to how it got that way,' Singleton told Thrillistin 2017. Co-created by the late director John Singleton, who helmed such iconic movies as Boyz n The Hood, the show delivered classic gangster flick-level quality every week, bringing the uncompromising gruesomeness and sociological commentary on drug dealing and addiction of the best from the genre.
