The first two seasons of FX’s Snowfall rapidly drew a dedicated fanbase, and the renewal of the critically acclaimed series has fans desperate to learn more about the development of the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles.
Snowfall kicked off in the early 1980s, with crack cocaine quickly becoming an industry unto itself and having a significant impact on the culture of one of the USA’s biggest cities. With a whole lot of power and money involved, there is plenty at stake for Franklin Saint, Teddy McDonald and co, and things aren’t expected to slow down in Season 3. Starring Damson Idris, Carter Hudson and Sergio Peris-Mencheta, catch the premiere of season 3 coming July 17 on Foxtel’s FOX Showcase.
Snowfall Season 3 Preview
The first two seasons of Snowfall focused on the lives of a range of individuals from vastly different walks of life, but who shared one crucial thing in common: the emergence of crack cocaine in 1983 had a significant influence on their lives. From young entrepreneur and drug dealer Franklin Saint to CIA operative Teddy McDonald to Mexican wrestler Gustavo Zapata, the characters experiences intertwine in ways that have left each of their lives inextricably linked.
In season 3, the stakes are set to get even higher. With more money, more influence and more power on the line, each character has more to gain – and a lot more to lose. The Drug Enforcement Agency – or DEA – however, has other ideas, and with crack cocaine beginning to take a hold on the city, they will stop at nothing to prevent its spread. The distribution of the drug suddenly just got a whole lot more dangerous.
