He wanted something that came full circle and ultimately led into his directorial debut “Boyz ‘N the Hood,” a film that was set in the ’90s and explored the harsh realities of Black families living in South Central L.A. The movie earned the then 24-year-old his first Oscar nomination, making him the youngest and first Black filmmaker to be nominated for best director.

You know how people used to say that HBO is the premier destination for prestige TV dramas? Well, HBO might have lost a bit of that luster in recent years, but FX is more than happy to take the crown with series such as “Fargo,” “Pose,” “Atlanta,” “Mayans MC,” and the under-the-radar hit, “Snowfall.” And now, as the fourth season has just wrapped up, “Snowfall” is looking at potential awards recognition later this year.

Through its four seasons, Snowfall has explored a story whose gripping force is grounded in a sobering history: crack cocaine’s siege on South Los Angeles in the 1980s. Yet the FX series has pointedly integrated moments of humor and brightness, achieving a blend of tones that is a key aspect of the show’s appeal.

FX has handed Snowfall an early renewal for a fifth season, just three episodes into season four.

The key auspices behind FX’s long-running drama Justified have reunited for another series adaptation of an Elmore Leonard property.
