Jul 7, 2017 It's 1983 and the crack cocaine epidemic is in its infancy in Los Angeles. Ambitious Lucia -- the daughter of a Mexican crime lord who sells marijuana throughout the city -- sees the burgeoning cocaine business as a potential moneymaker, so she manipulates her family into entering the more dangerous and profitable territory than pot. Getting involved with the new drug is setting her on a violent collision course with the likes of Franklin, a young street entrepreneur on a quest for power, and former Mexican wrestler Gustavo, who is caught up in a power struggle within a crime family. Also getting involved in the cocaine trade is CIA operative Teddy, who is running from a dark past and begins an off-book operation to fund Nicaraguan Contras. Oscar-nominated director John Singleton ("Boyz N the Hood") co-created the drama series and says he drew inspiration from his own life for Franklin's story.
Jul 10, 2017 i think its pretty good, so far 1 ep in....3 storylines going at the same time (south central hustler/kinda reminds me of Rick Freeway Ross story)....(Mexican Cartel storyline)....CIA fighting a war in central America needing money to fund it bringing dope into California) all storylines interconnect the acting is really good...John Singleton gives it a boyz in da hood vibe when its the south central storyline...
Jul 20, 2017 Haven't been able to get into this. Too much going on and some of the acting/writing is really bad
Jul 24, 2017 I'm right there with you. I really liked the 1st episode, but the 2nd had me confused. Will stick with it though.
Jul 26, 2017 currently watching the first episode, this s--- is kinda cheesy and kinda dope at the same time. but this show has my 2 favorite things. 1. cocaine 2. and Los Angeles
Aug 4, 2017 lovin this show, at least 1/3 of it - hope the Luchador & CIA storylines grow a little more
Aug 14, 2017 Good to see 2 of the story lines finally intertwining. Excited for the 2nd half of this show.
