What is the plot of 'The Chi' Season 6?

The official synopsis of the series reads, "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 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."

What is the buzz around 'The Chi' Season 6?

According to Bet, actor Barton Fitzpatrick, who plays Reg Taylor on the show, was recently robbed at gunpoint when he was in West Chicago. Deadline said that Showtime recently paused ‘The Chi’ and ‘City On A Hill’ for more than a week to air ‘Jackass Forever’.

In a recent interview Curtiss Cook, who plays former Chicago mayor Otis ‘Douda’ Perry, sat down with uinterview founder Erik Meers to discuss how he related to his character. He said, "From the acting standpoint, I have to relate to him. I have to find something that connects with him and me so I can try my best to continue to make him a three-dimensional person," Cook said, adding, "One thing that I really connect with is that he’s one of the most honest characters on the show. I say that because you rarely hear him lie. When he says he’s going to do something for you, nine times out of 10, he’s going to do that, but you might not like the way he does it."
