About Season 6 of The Chi: This season, life in THE CHI reverberates between the highest highs and lowest lows. Big dreams are finally realized but at a cost and everyone will be tested in unimaginable ways as they calculate the risks and rewards of their next big move. Emmett (Jacob Latimore) and Kiesha’s (Birgundi Baker) blissful blended union is tested by his insatiable drive to expand Smokey’s and a new perilous partnership, while Kiesha finally races toward a rewarding new career. Douda (Curtiss Cook) deals with the fallout of Q’s murder and its effect on the shifting loyalty of his inner circle. Victor’s (Luke James) bold declaration of love for both his new girlfriend and his beloved community will impact his political ambitions. Happily married Jada (Yolonda Ross) mentors Emmett and her besties as they navigate relationships. Kevin (Alex Hibbert) is becoming a brilliant master gamer but struggles with the youthful pitfalls of early independence. Jake (Michael V. Epps) launches a new business, and Papa (Shamon Brown Jr.) falls for an older woman while questioning his faith. What will become of their pursuits will be revealed over the course of this season’s sixteen jaw-dropping episodes.
About The Chi on SHOWTIME: 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. From Emmy® winner Lena Waithe, The Chi is a timely coming-of-age drama series centered on a group of residents who become linked by coincidence but bonded by the need for connection and redemption.

These boys practically grew up on this show. The Chi is definitely one of my fav shows.

[@shannonphillips7861]

Loved the interviews they did and the chi tea they said they were home schooled so the graduation prom all the dances plays was them being able to do those things tho they were acting they still experienced that school vibe

It was good season 1 & 2 now it’s everywhere

Show is goofy af, terrible acting/directing

[@imhereforitall9218]

@@blissghmedia Maybe that explains why they have received so many awards and nominations and more than likely will be renewed for season 7.? If you want to know which awards look it up yourself. At least now we know you have 1 less show to watch since you do not care for it. 🤡

Don't really consider this a catch up when so many main parts got skipped over

[@lrs1519]

I know Kevin left but he was supportive of Jake, had a whole relationship with Miesha and was able to mend his relationship with his parents. I guess they chose to focus on the current main characters. They even skipped Emmets parents.

[@tmac731]

That’s what I’m saying all over the place no order and we didn’t see Ronnie in jail

[@JomarGreenley-fh3gt]

Brandon the short black dude was the show but due to ssa he got kicked off the girl who played his girl did him foul

[@sheed_da_comic]

everybody's come a long way in this show. wish brandon & reg was still on here, but other characters stepped up in bigger roles for the show so it all panned out

[@karrionnsmith]

Kevin was too big of a character to not come back.

[@Neshawn__]

Right 😭

[@Dashawnkn]

Not really his attitude in the last seasons was annoying😂😂

we are on the 10th

[@blackluxury5585]

I hear they’ve been renewed for S7 already

[@KillSteelVol3]

S1 was the ripple effect of Jason’s Death. S2 Followed those characters moving forward. Skipping all Brandon/Ronnie/Reg/ Cop scenes etc is nasty work. This recap Doodie 💩

IKR. She looks old asf. You know she started off as a cheer leader. Don't quote me but it was either the NBA or NFL but she had legs for days. I wish I had legs like when she was younger.

Who is that?

[@imhereforitall9218]

@@lovelynicole8875 She is Bianca, Douda's girlfriend. Her character's name was Toni Childs on the sitcom "Girlfriends".

[@imhereforitall9218]

I liked her in "Girlfriends". I had a sister that resembled her quite a bit. (R.I.H.) Physically and even down to the high fashion. When she passed away she had enough clothes to fill 3 whole living rooms. Instead of donating to Goodwill we had people come over and take 3 or 4 items. Some of the clothes still had tags on them. When she would go shopping some of the stores thought she was a model and when they would asked she pretended like she was so shocked they were asking. We would laugh so hard. We really miss her. Our very own Toni Childs. You know Toni Childs was formerly an NFL cheerleader and NBA dancer?

They completely erased Brandon his girl, brother, they mom and her man.. and Ronnie out this recap

[@jessinthecomments]

Ronnie was there in the beginning of the recap just not the full story of him. And I guess with the controversy between the actors that’s played Brandon and his girlfriend I guess it’s best to not include.

@@jessinthecomments it's just weird that they shared Keisha was missing and then they show her fro'ed up in a track suit and then she home telling her mom and Kevin she pregnant...
