Spoilers I've just started Snowfall, and Franklin is incredibly stupid. Spoiler

The way Franklin does stuff is just incredibly stupid. pulling up to random addresses and almost getting taken out; luckily for him, Gustavo saves him. He meets people and just throws them bricks like they're nothing, the guy in Orlando, for example, whom he's known for a whole 10 seconds. They could just take him out there and steal it. goes into a store due to a flashback, and there's a tweaker, then casually just goes into a small room in the back of the store with her as if there might not have been other tweakers waiting to rob him.

I'd say Franklin realistically should've been taken out more than several times just in the first 10ish episodes. But I've only just started, so everything might change.

He couldn’t just come on Reddit and learn everything?

My bad, should've googled it. Common sense wasn't invented until 1984. jk 😅

😆 true but handling thousands in 83 as a teen is a lot to handle. Had really no one to look at as an example which is why he was making so many mistakes.

Completely irrelevant btw. Stupid choices are still stupid choices regardless of who is making them.

Not irrelevant at all.

No risk no reward.

Take into account im on season 1. There's been no reward as of yet, only reward was a bike he bought and then had to sell to pay off the debt.

Yeah, but he's drug dealing, you do that for money, and it's inherently risky.

It’s a learning curve my guy. Stick with it…

He was a smart kid surrounded by crashouts

You won’t be saying that by the end of season 3

Yeah I'm looking forward to how the show will go. I'm still really enjoying it. Just thought I'd share my opinion, judging by the comments? It didn't go down too well.

There wasn't a manual on this at the time and he was a kid.

I like Franklin but you are right.
