About this show

On Chicago's south side, an average day finds kids prepping for school as their parents head off to work, young adults trying to make a living, and the elders keeping an eye on things from their front porches. But in this tough neighborhood, real dangers threaten daily to squelch dreams, and the simplest decisions can have life or death consequences. The Chi is a powerful coming-of-age drama series about an interconnected group of working-class African-Americans who remind us that no matter what, the human spirit is strong and hope never dies.

That series is so cool seeing the whole Chicago's Southside. I been wondering if the Southside represent a lot more like with where I live the lifestyles and events that happens only goes around everyday. I'm a Jamaica, Queens, New York-born, Austell, Georgia-raised, Atlanta-native I had seen a lot of stories going on all over the country and worldwide. Chicago's Southside is The CHI - Atlanta is The ATL

I absolutely loved this one too!!! This one was more emotionally involved with real lif situations. But Snowfall&The CHI ..WAY BETTER THAN POWER and all the rest of those wanna be gangster/fake shows.This show sincerely relates to a whole bunch of real life situations and is definitely perfect to watch if you or your family or relationship has some dysfunctionalality or a lot..Even some crazy scenarios you’ve probably never thought of!!!
