This is the only show on right now I actually look forward to watching. Cmon reporter lady, you should've gotten the drinks yourself instead of letting the guy who threatened to kill you the last time you saw him. Manboy was a good villian, and it seems he was foreshadowing some shit before Franklin thwarted (props to Einstein) his ass. Jerome might be one of the coolest characters ever, and never thought I'd say: "damn, poor Skully". Wish Teddy would revenge on those fuckers that made his brother snort pure coke for 2 days straight, and Oso turned out to be a loyal badass. Fuckin Alton.  Shit's gonna get even more wild. Reiterate best fuckin show on right now.

i saw it, but don't remember much dramatic happening but it's possible i fell asleep.  recap for me please.  i remember some stuff about leon in africa, coming back and finding the hood in disarray, and pretty much everyone's storyline sinking like a rock.  very depressing season so far.  so much excess and living high on the hog up and now everyone is barely holding on.

If you aren't up to date on a show and spoil yourself reading a thread about it, it's your own fault.  That was a really good episode.

Fuck it.

The moment Jerome sat down to talk it out with Louie, I knew he was dead. Which sucks because he seemed to be one of the more redeemable characters.

Yeah Jerome and Leon are the only 2 that are even remotely likeable.  Well, Leon's wife is good too.

yeah I felt like this whole season was coming down to him dying, It sucks because even though he had his terrible moments him and little Leon are the only two redeeming characters. 

When he said he was going to do the drop for Louie, i thought he was going to get it there.

Y Oso.

yeah forgot about Oso for a second. He and leon need to make it out. Its shaping up poorly for all of them though with Leon getting back in the game and Oso turning on teddy. 

I think Franklin is going to make it out alive, but with no money and absolutely ruining his chance at a family. Louie will probably live now as a broken women.

Not sure if this show is severely underrated or if I just have a bias for movies & shows set in this time period, especially anything to do with the underbelly of the '80s in Cali and Florida. Have always found stuff like the Freeway Ricky/CIA "stories" interesting

Oso may be one of my favorite perimeter characters of all time. Dude is a gem and was played perfectly. The scene with the kids and his luchador masks made it awfully dusty over here

That episode was intense from start to finish. I hope that’s the last we see of Oso. And damn Cissy, you couldn’t wait 30 seconds?

Hahaha no shit. I understand rage, but damn.

If that is the last we see of Oso, I am happy.

Really perfect ending for oso if that is his send off. But let him make the transfer. Set your son up for life and then get your revenge

This show fucks. 

I am looking forward to rewatching it in a bingier format in a year or two. I've always found it a little challenging to get back up to speed at the start of each new season, and I often feel like I've forgotten some important but seemingly minor detail, but I think that's another indication of just how fucking solid this show is - not a criticism at all.

I thought after John Singleton died the show would lose its voice and focus, but they did him solid. And the acting has been really great.

Yep.... expected a drop off

Franklin ended up like the junkies he helped create. I figured he would have died or maybe gone to prison but was fine with the way it ended. His fate ended up worse than death, which probably wasn’t too far behind.

He ended up like the person he hated the most when the show started, a drunk, like his Dad.

yeah, not the best ending but totally fine with it, especially with him turning into a drunk.  Not sure what else they could have thrown in outside of him getting killed. The writing team did a good job finishing the last few seasons but I do wonder how much better/different it would have been if Singleton was able to finish it.

I know some folks won’t be happy with the ending, because you just can’t make everyone happy, but I liked how it played out. Really great series. I liked the nod to Boyz n the Hood.

That was a nice touch.
