I think Franklin is a massive thinker, but has allowed emotions to throw him off in this last season of snowfall. A huge lesson to us all, to not get to emotionally attached to idols or we will surely run a risk of losing it all.
I disagree. He played the game without crossing anybody and allowed everybody to get rich. His uncle crossed him, Teddy crossed him and stole 70 million. Your emotions would get the best of you too to get back what you worked for
I tend to agree. Louie also has some of the same traits as Franklin and because of that and then wanting the same things they are easy rivals and sadly Jerome is right in the middle
Crazy thing is the most common thing ppl say in his situation is that “you’re gonna end up either dead or in jail” he got neither. And he’s actually “free” in his mind. Also he’s still free to bounce back like how Wanda and Mel did. And they bounced back from crack.. Waaay worse than alcohol.
Honestly Louie ruined franklins life. He could’ve got out the game probably a couple years later but Louie decided to go straight to teddy who then robbed Franklin and then Louie didn’t even try to help Franklin
whole time bro talks like he lives on the other side of the world. talk about dedicated. nigga is really a british man that has a british accent dat perfected a south central accent.
It's kind of amazing how I started out rooting for Franklin, and by the end completely despise him. But at the same time I do also understand his arc, why he became like this, and that is the mark of absolutely brilliant writing in my opinion.
@@JcGross93 wasn’t he though? I think they’re literally on the same level with the same arc. He ruined many lives with his meth, caused numerous deaths - intentional and unintentional, gave up Jesse to white supremacists, let Jesse’s gf die, got Hank unalived, had Jesse kill (I forgot his name - the other meth guy that Gus hired), an innocent guy who looked up to him just so Gustavo was forced to work with him. I would almost say that Walter was worst but at this point they’ve both done such significant destruction due to their narcissism they may as well be the same person. At the very LEAST Franklin stayed somewhat loyal to…? Eh nvm.
@@isattathecreator You must be kidding. Walter went back for Jessie, only killed when absolutely necessary, did what he did for his family, and tried to save Hank to the very end, even offering an enormous amount of money for his life. Plus, he didn't care about himself as he was dying of cancer. Franklin on the other hand did what he did for himself, out of greed, and was ready and willing to burn every bridge just to get his way. He turned on friends, family, even his wife. Didn't truly love anybody, and every relationship in his life was just an account book of what you get and what you give. Three ending was superb with him loosing everything. Every loved one, friends and family alike. I think the two aren't even in the same league.
Lee talking to Frank while he's was locked up was deep! Lee couldn't take it seeing his nonviolent friend all beat up.. what asked Franklin to do was crazy, and Franklin did
To me that was the moment he really changed after he got his shoes back from the Mexican guy and told Ray Ray and his boys he’ll have their families killed if they ever stepped to him again
@@jakejones3269that literally is when he changed. Or that was the preview of season 4 Franklin and on. When push comes to shove Franklin will go down deep
This show is addicting man, I remember first starting it and I couldn’t stop. It had the right amount of intensity, with interesting characters and development along with a nice era we can all look back upon with strange nostalgia. Honestly it’s one of my favorite crime shows, I put it up there with the wire
@@redpanda7071 just finished the wire it's the best written crime show. Not my favourite show oat but the writing and acting is just perfect. Its worth the watch
I think it's important to point out when he took the store from the older couple. That was small but spoke volumes about the change of his character arc.
Power and BMF is just a super dramatized and romanticized version of gang/mob life. It serves its purpose since snowfall is super realistic and often a slow burner.
@@em.5941 physcopaths don't understand or care about other people emotions. Franklin shows a capacity to understand and sometimes take into account other people's feelings, not enough to stop selling drugs to his people but still. This is what makes him a sociopath at best and definitely not a psychopath.
@@justaguy7831 psychopaths have a loss of empathy/consciousness, not a lack of anger and or aggressive behaviors which is an emotion. He is a sociopath, but he displays psychopathic behaviors as well.
The finale prompted me to watch over and its even better seeing all the scenes etc etc that I forgot about that hinted or connected to little things in S6 episodes. This show is honestly even more amazing watching it back now
I ain’t seen a show this good since breaking bad I was mad late I started watching it and by the time I got to season 3 I was hooked it’s one of my favorite television shows ever made
E X A C T L Y. Plus Psychopaths (because of an off wiring in their brain) can never be sympathetic to others..they don't have a sense of loyalty. They do not care about anyone else but themselves. So in this case, if Saint truly was a psychopath, he wouldn't care about Leon, his girl and baby, nor his mom. They lack an ability to produce emotion. A sociopath is more like the term for him where he became who is now through experience, environment, etc...
I don’t think pycophaty is a born trait but It can be but that’s not alway the case anybody can go from being a normal person to becoming a psychopath with what they seem on been threw in life it’s all about emotions
Had Franklin been in his late 20’s starting out, he’d been a monster and unstoppable. Youth lead to his downfall.. his lack of emotional control in the end and his trust got him.
Phenomenal ending ,the series prior to the finale I gave it a 8 after the finale it’s a 10+,that’s the part of the drug game that’s very rarely spoken about ,when kingpins fall off and and never grab hold again ,and the highlight of there life is a 3-8 year run .
This is a masterpiece. I feel like I know all the ins and outs of the show without even having watched. I knew better than to get hooked to this show. Hollywood isnt a fan of happy endings these days. Great job.
Louie is the worse. She doesn't accept accountability for her actions at all or for her greed and desire to be at the top. She, embodies how people in the drug game are and how they let that thirst consume them. She blames everything on Franklin, most of them do but they had a choice and they chose to follow him and some chose to oppose him. That led them to where they are now.
I felt the same at first but when I thought about it I realized that she was literally turning into Franklin. Everything you list here that you hate about Louie, Franklin is just as guilty. To me, it showcase how many and power corrupt absolutely and ruin families and relationships. They don't even realize how Teddy doesn't see Franklin as anything but a pawn and his community as nothing but trash whose sacrifice is worth giving "freedom" to some other country. Franklin and Louie didn't even realize it.
Loiue was the villain, she’s the reason Jerome got involved, stayed involved, went to war with his nephew and eventually got killed. She hurt franklins pockets by going behind his back with teddy
I see where you're coming from but in the grand scheme of things Franklin and Louie were just pawns used by the CIA. If they weren't around, I'm pretty sure the CIA would've just used some other drug dealers to flood the streets with coke. The real villain of this show is the United States government
I love this show out of all the shows similar to it just no match. The way they show all sides of the game tell the truth about who started putting it on the streets the straight history of it. Makes it so watchable it has a message every character has a purpose and a lesson. It’s not as glorifying the game as these other shows it’s really a message.
He’s such a great character and the actor who does him in the show is so excellent, but with that being said I’m rooting so hard against him. Hes ruined so many lives and has to pay (with whatever karma deems as the cost)
Every person that got in his way deserve to get stomped on it was once a time where franklin was a weak boi that grew sum balls so whoever gets in his way got to get stomped on
I get what you mean morally, but you have to look beyond morals when you actually experience the life of not only being poor but being poor and black…especially back then. People never acknowledge the rose that bloomed out from the cracks of concrete. He tried to go the right way… and yea he could’ve tried again, but it took years just to scratch the surface of this false sense of equality and opportunity for the minorities in America. All that he worked for, him bending over backwards for a system that wouldn’t even piss on him if he were on fire, his future ultimately setback for an unforeseeable future because he couldn’t afford it. Because his parents parents weren’t beneficiaries of slave labor corporations. Because he wasn’t privileged to be white. His actions may not be morally right but they are justified. Everything after his decision to create the ideal life for him and his was a means to an end. I can respect that coming from a similar situation. I would do WHATEVER I had to do to make sure me and mine are straight at WHATEVER or WHOEVER the cost because that’s AMERICA. As Tupac said, only slightly reworded… “When you reached your point and are tired of asking, nd after 40 years of asking for shit and all those who did the “right” thing are either dead or in jail… what do you expect us to do?” We asked with the Civil Rights Movement, we asked with the Black Panthers, and for a while before internal corruption we continued to ask with the BLM Movement ( whom I can no longer support)… I feel like it won’t end until we fight💯that’s what Cuba did. Win or lose at this point. America was built on oppression and racism, what makes you think they’d stop the formula that’s been working for them since the start. Stay woke
@Kush Habits I can't look past destroying his own people ain't enough money in the world would make me do something so evil ain't no excuse. He's no different from the Cia and white supremacy wanting to destroy black people he gotta go along with teddy and his auntie.
Franklin is probably the one drug dealer that has compassion he could’ve and should’ve killed Mel he’s working for the CIA he’s scared he even admitted it in season 4 psychopaths don’t show Marcy or have fear if he’s off his game the CIA is gonna kill him and his family so he has to think about business at all times he kept everybody save up until when they turn then he became a demon Franklin had a plan to leave the game teddy made Franklin who he is today and season 6 he’s about to find himself again
Power and Snowfall ain't on the same level. Snowfall got better writing and is more grounded in reality. You think a targeted drug dealer by the government could actually be considered a political candidate? That shit is fantasy
@@jesussinaloa9300 bro I didn’t say anything about them being on the same level or not??? I said I enjoy the way Franklin says business the same way I enjoy the way Tommy says Ghost
I honestly don't think Franklin Gon get the happy ending he most likely Gon end up dead or in jail but he'll also probably win against Louie,jerome and teddy
Leon Simmons has killed a lot of people too without really having mercy for them.The only time Leon shows a lack of empathy when killing someone is when he killed skully s daughter.Does that make Leon a psychopath?
I need one of these for Louie…and maybe even Jerome. I forgot Louie was a sherm head and I don’t remember Jerome being so weak for her. Wanna see if the writers made a gradual change like they did with Franklin
I wouldn’t say he is weak for her but he just knew she wasn’t that same sheen head from 4-5 years ago. His respect lvl for her changed hence he put a ring on it. She is a vile mf tho. Lol
this video is so well done i’ve been watching snowfall for the past year so i totally forgot some of this crazy shit happened thank you for catching me up
Wouldn’t Franklin be considered a sociopath instead of a psychopath? Sociopaths are created due to their environment. Franklin was brought up in an environment of drugs not crack but weed. But when he got into the game he started to become desensitized to the things he was doing. Remember the episode of when he first caused harm to someone he was shaking and worried about the consequences. But as he grew accustomed to what he does he became desensitized to the consequences. Yes some people are psychopaths people who are born without that autonomous response to things that cause excitement or fear or even discomfort. They don’t fear consequences. But a sociopath develops that. Am I wrong in that? Sociopaths and psychopaths are hand in hand when it comes to traits?
This video persuaded me to watch snowfall and today the final episode aired and I must say it’s one of the best shows I’ve ever seen‼️‼️ Ty for inspiring me to watch it!
Thank you so much, J. Wisdom, for creating a video topic, and analysis of Franklin Saint's dark psychology. Damson Idris plays Franklin Saint so effortlessly, and perfection. Snowfall is one of my favorite shows on television. And by the way, do you think that you can do a video topic, and analysis of the character Frank Martin from The Transporter movies.
Appreciate it Malcom 🙏Damson is a very talented actor indeed, one of the best. I still haven't actually watched The Transporter movies but I'll look into it for the future👍
I finished the show yesterday and honestly the ending is growing on me. I was upset because I felt the ending betrayed all the qualities that made Franklin, Franklin. But you made a good point, we spent season after season watching Franklin betray those same qualities. I even felt that way while watching the finale when he drank, called his mom a bitch, or choked V. I didn’t recognize him anymore so the idea of him becoming a bum shouldn’t have been out of the realm of possibilities. Great video, looking forward to part 2.
I wasn’t expecting that ending and props to the producers for not giving the typical corny ending of magical security and success after drug dealing. That’s rarely how it ends kids.
To me Franklin saint just brilliantly displays the duality of man. The desire to be powerful and respected and feared, but also love your close ones and take care of them and keep that power and respect without being stepped on.
After watching the season finale, I'm definitely making a part 2 in the coming weeks. Make sure you're subscribed you won't wanna miss it...
I waS about to say cause this last episode finally brought out that psychopath in Franklin.
The downfall of Franklin lol

Psychopathy is a born trait whereas sociopathy is learnt psychopathic behavior. Frank is exhibiting sociopathic behavior.
E X A C T L Y. Plus Psychopaths (because of an off wiring in their brain) can never be sympathetic to others..they don't have a sense of loyalty. They do not care about anyone else but themselves.

He turned to Leon and Leon turned to him. He started out with good intentions, talkin bout he wanna uplift his people and Lee did the reverse
The finale was masterfully done. Looking forward to your analysis.
Looking forward to watching this tonight! Love to see the consistency brother 👏🏽
Appreciate it bro🙏🙏
The way he says buisness hits the same part of my brain as Tommy Eagan saying Ghost.
Power and Snowfall ain't on the same level. Snowfall got better writing and is more grounded in reality. You think a targeted drug dealer by the government could actually be considered a political candidate? That shit is fantasy
@@jesussinaloa9300 bro I didn’t say anything about them being on the same level or not??? I said I enjoy the way Franklin says business the same way I enjoy the way Tommy says Ghost
*Bidness*
such a good video essay wisdom. You need your recognition
Thank you 🙏🏼
Yesterdays episode could definitely be included in this documentation. I think it be great if you would create a update especially after Episode 9.
His character development was crazy.
I honestly don't think Franklin Gon get the happy ending he most likely Gon end up dead or in jail but he'll also probably win against Louie,jerome and teddy
Need to watch this show, amazing video as always bro.
Watch is asap bro! Best show out there
Stylistically this is a brilliant video essay! Really great watch
Louie is such a back stabbing snake. I went from loving her to hating her all in one season
This just made me subscribe definitely needs a part two
its been 2 months and still dont have a part 2 smh
This is exactly what is meant by the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Money was his idol and he was willing to do anything to get it.
Incredible video, we need another one when the season ends !!! Hes horrified me in season 6 so far !!!
Leon Simmons has killed a lot of people too without really having mercy for them.The only time Leon shows a lack of empathy when killing someone is when he killed skully s daughter.Does that make Leon a psychopath?
What a documentary man. 👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you bro🙏
I need one of these for Louie…and maybe even Jerome. I forgot Louie was a sherm head and I don’t remember Jerome being so weak for her. Wanna see if the writers made a gradual change like they did with Franklin
I wouldn’t say he is weak for her but he just knew she wasn’t that same sheen head from 4-5 years ago. His respect lvl for her changed hence he put a ring on it. She is a vile mf tho. Lol
this video is so well done i’ve been watching snowfall for the past year so i totally forgot some of this crazy shit happened thank you for catching me up
Wouldn’t Franklin be considered a sociopath instead of a psychopath? Sociopaths are created due to their environment. Franklin was brought up in an environment of drugs not crack but weed. But when he got into the game he started to become desensitized to the things he was doing. Remember the episode of when he first caused harm to someone he was shaking and worried about the consequences. But as he grew accustomed to what he does he became desensitized to the consequences. Yes some people are psychopaths people who are born without that autonomous response to things that cause excitement or fear or even discomfort. They don’t fear consequences. But a sociopath develops that. Am I wrong in that? Sociopaths and psychopaths are hand in hand when it comes to traits?
Naw your correct
This video persuaded me to watch snowfall and today the final episode aired and I must say it’s one of the best shows I’ve ever seen‼️‼️ Ty for inspiring me to watch it!
great breakdown. you should go deep into the psych of some of the other characters too
Will do 🤝
It's crazy how innocent he came off in that first season
Literally discovered this show a month ago. My husband and I have binged watch 5 seasons worth 😂 Best show ive seen in awhile.
Same girl SAME. Literally binged it for 2 to 3 days last week and I’m hooked. 🤣🤎
Thank you so much, J. Wisdom, for creating a video topic, and analysis of Franklin Saint's dark psychology. Damson Idris plays Franklin Saint so effortlessly, and perfection. Snowfall is one of my favorite shows on television. And by the way, do you think that you can do a video topic, and analysis of the character Frank Martin from The Transporter movies.
Appreciate it Malcom 🙏Damson is a very talented actor indeed, one of the best. I still haven't actually watched The Transporter movies but I'll look into it for the future👍
And he looks so innocent !! That guy deserves an Emmy
I finished the show yesterday and honestly the ending is growing on me. I was upset because I felt the ending betrayed all the qualities that made Franklin, Franklin. But you made a good point, we spent season after season watching Franklin betray those same qualities. I even felt that way while watching the finale when he drank, called his mom a bitch, or choked V. I didn’t recognize him anymore so the idea of him becoming a bum shouldn’t have been out of the realm of possibilities. Great video, looking forward to part 2.
I'm waiting for The VileEye Channel, to analyze Franklin Saint. Great video.
Frank Saint, Walter White & Prince Zuko have the best character developments in my opinion
I wasn’t expecting that ending and props to the producers for not giving the typical corny ending of magical security and success after drug dealing. That’s rarely how it ends kids.
Your videos are amazing
Thank you🙏
This was great thank you look forward to the next video
This is easily my FAVORITE SHOW EVER
Thanks for the great breakdown, you the best to do it!
Finished this show in 1 week, truly a masterpiece. Top 3 for me!
It’s crazy how I relate to Franklin to get out of the hood and be better….
Can wait for part two ‼️
This 10x better then those goofy ass power spin offs😂
nbs😂
This is amazing. You are good
you deserve way more subs than you currently have bro
Thank you bro that means a lot🙏🏼
You've got to do the psychology of Teddy next
How do you not have more subscribers and views these breakdowns are amazing.
Thank you bro🙏
You should do another one about Franklin now that the whole series is complete
Great video, ended on a cliffhang, looking forward to the next!
Thank you🙏🙏
To me Franklin saint just brilliantly displays the duality of man. The desire to be powerful and respected and feared, but also love your close ones and take care of them and keep that power and respect without being stepped on.
