Brace yourself for the final chapter of this incendiary drama. With drug lord Franklin Saint in a desperate situation after being double-crossed and betrayed by family, he’s about to wage war on his enemies to even the score – and for some, the outcome is almost certain to be deadly. Read on for how to watch Snowfall season 6 online from anywhere now.
Snowfall tells a dark chapter in America’s history, guiding viewers through 1980s LA when the crack cocaine epidemic was radically disrupting inner city areas across America.
In the midst of this crisis we once again find drug kingpin Franklin (Damson Idris). After stepping away from the drug trade with a tidy $73 million in his pocket and a baby on the way, Franklin anticipates a carefree future. But when he discovers his former partner Teddy – also a CIA operative – has cleared him out of every last dollar, he’s ready to spill blood.
Even his mother Cissy Saint (Michael Hyatt) agrees that should "fight fire with fire", and we should see them partner up with KGB agent Rubén to find proof that “the CIA has been selling cocaine in the United States” and expose Teddy’s off-the-books operation.
The final season of Snowfall looks to be full of family betrayals, shoot outs, and bullet-strewn action sequences. And as co-creator Dave Andron reiterates, the story of the 1980s crack epidemic "has to ultimately be a tragedy." So….who will survive?
