    Liking It Less Each Episode

    First season was mildly entertaining,thought forgettable being written with so many stereotypes and tropes and being formulaic.

    But 2nd season they doubled down on it. 50cent puts not even a single ounce of creativity or originality into it. Even the scenes, the shots introducing a scene its all the most basic 101 handbook. Like dropping a thing out of grocery bag and as shes trying to pick it up you see a hand reach down to pick it up, Or who the traitors are in the game, again 100% as in every 50cent show and based on generic tropes. Also it is so very budget.

    Storywise one thing that is super annoying is how they mention how much they are earning(millions) yet they are broke most of the time. Or if the story needs it, or when Terry goes in business with his dad. How can he have ZERO money when he shouldve been a (multi)milionaire already. Where is all the money they making?

    But the thing that bothers the most is the forced problem making or how quickly cops could turn a second in command. Also how the main guy is written is ridiculous, his brother helps him out of a serious serious jam and instead of dropping down to his KNEES and thanking him because it could be a huge deal, he curses him out and then punches him. Who writes this nonsense.

    50 had a few pretty quality shows, or at least one, but lately given his shows it seems he has no interest in quality anymore, just low budget and little work invested in creation which is easily solved with formulaic generic writing.

    The Lamar show

    Even though this is about big Meech, I don't like his character, I think Lamar is the best character, he's the OG. Plus, Meech swears too much. So much he's incoherent. Also has some corny story to it that doesn't help. Either make it gangster or don't.

    Underrated

    This series is so under publicized and underrated. I mean it has Snoop Dogg in the show - playing one of the most hilarious characters I've ever seen. But putting aside his ludicrous cameos, the series is just a non-stop riot. A very tense crime drama about drug dealing gangsters and turf wars. It's also about personal vendettas and revenge. The character plot lines interweave so well.

    The music is also great- I've constantly found myself Shazamming songs. There's a lot of great 80s R&B throwback songs that will take you down memory lane. Definitely no dull moments in this binge-worthy series.

    Lil Meech is the real deal punks

    I've seen many of you punks saying that lil meech cannot act . Funny! He's the only one that have acted real in this series. Not because you hate his character you will say that bmf is bad!!

    And it's even about his father.

    If you don't like the show then don't watch it.

    A bit cliched but good

    It follows all the previous paint by numbers black crime shows and movies but since this is based on a true story I doubt they could improvise that much.

    The production values are good and there is this "feel" and potential to it that it will get better as it goes on.

    All in all, 2021 hasn't been that good a year for TV or Cinema and I think this show is better than a lot of the other content put out this year.
