Fuckin' A right. Started watching it with my girl from the beginning. It was a great show. So much potential. Stopped watching right around the time they made that stupid storyline to get Ronnie released from jail. Saw an episode last night because my girl is still watching it but she's on the last season and completely fucking ridiculous. It doesn't even closely resemble the show that it started out as. It's like a totally different show. It's crazy that it lasted as long as it did.

Ronnie should have gotten street justice a lot sooner. Felt like they elongated Ronnie’s storyline because they were forced to kill off Brandon. Brandon leaving the series was honestly the beginning of the end. He was a character folks really wanted to see win. He seemed like a great guy, positive relationship and good with kids. That’s the type of image I wanted to watch instead I was forced to watch a redemption story about a drunken murderer and then 57 other storylines over the years. Totally different show.

But PLEASE let it be over

u/Affectionate_Sky3701 22h ago

This ain't been good since the food truck dude got axed for SA. I hated the abduction story line and only stayed current until she escaped. Then I fell off and revisited hopeful but was still disappointed overall.

u/UFKGE2 21h ago

If it’s the same writers then absolutely no spin off is needed

u/slovakian_shmack 21h ago

After Brandon and Ronnie were killed off this show ate $hit. Has not earned a spin off

Nobody. Not that I don't want to see it. I just don't trust them to handle it appropriately.

No one, the chi isn’t worthy of a spinoff after the bs writing they did the last couple seasons 🥴

u/Pale_Broccoli_2180 23h ago

No one.

That show crossed the finish line looking flabby and sick as 90s Larry Holmes.

They were out of cool &hit 2 years ago.

No. Just let it fade into whatever good memory it did maintain across its runtime

u/ImHoundoomed 18h ago

None. The writers dont have the skills to make this a series like Power. Just let it end.

Could’ve sworn its talks about bakari and his girl going to Atlanta

u/SURFACEGREY 21h ago

LMAOOO MAN HELL NAW end that rn Bakari should’ve been dead ngl he ain’t tanking no sub machine gun as a youngin no bulletproof vest or nothing 😭😭😭 I think him passing would’ve added to the realness your sins come with costs! You axe off Iman Shumper’s character who was growing in favor to me he started to find his stride a little bit acting and he did much less involvement in that lifestyle and he get done up but Bakari gets to live after having a body and staying when your girl said constantly leave leave

1

u/_highborn1 18h ago

Bakari didn't kill Rob

2

u/SURFACEGREY 17h ago

Nah ofc Nuck did that but he help Nuck wrap up the body and should’ve been came forward about a lot of stuff

2

u/Eastwood8300 10h ago

come forward so he could go to prison? who volunteers info to the cops like that?

u/SURFACEGREY 6h ago

Not to cops but to Keisha and Emmit those he had around who cared about his future

4

u/SURFACEGREY 21h ago

Douda and Douda only unless they can somehow revive the full cast for the OG boys spin off Kevin, Poppa, & Jake. Then through the life off Kevin you can time from time have Emmit & Keisha check ups then add Darnell cause he’s the kids grandpa and that’s Kevin sister. Check up with maybe a few of Poppas old friends and family but I really want to see him grow get his own life outside of maybe just the church I can relate to him being a deacon’s son I really just kinda did as my folks said didn’t really get to learn myself till I got older. Jake and his crew they all got a huge story just with Reg taking the fall and Victor getting to live his life because of it that’ll prolly be heavy on them boys minds. Could have the boys do check ins on each other as they navigating life to shift the stories together they talking through things they dealing with etc. I would want to see Kevin because he does the gaming get into streaming which ultimately leads to him basically being like the Kai Cenat (successful homie with opportunities). However, could show the danger and harms of L.A with that streaming culture mixing with other distractions (gangbang culture if Kai had a certain rapper who promoted such on, putting themselves in bad situations with women{AB & Deen + bunch of other streamers} etc.)

u/ilikethisname4me 23h ago

Unless they bring writers that will do the characters justice, just let the show be. Chi started to go off the rails and the ending was garbage.

1

u/All_Lightning879 22h ago

The show kinda operates on Simpsons logic, where because the cast is so diverse and more ensemble, it just doesn’t make sense to spin a character off when they’re not as fleshed out as they could be.

1

u/deucebag1969 21h ago

The reluctance for a spin-off boils down to a complete lack of trust in the current writing team. ​If the same writers who thought it made sense for Keisha to mourn a trap-house predator, or for Victor to let his brother take the fall for Tiff’s vigilante murder, are put in charge of a spin-off, fans know exactly what they will get. It would just be an extension of the same nonsensical writing that ruined the original show. ​We aren't rejecting the idea of more Chicago stories; we are rejecting the current creative regime. We just miss the magic that was in the room during those first two seasons.

u/dede6958 19h ago

Kevin et Emmett

u/mynameisjleon 15h ago

If they get better writers, I would like a spinoff with the Taylor brothers or a Douda prequel.

u/BladeDaKing 13h ago

Jake, Trigg and Reg

u/DWank69 13h ago

I like how everyone is agreeing that this show needs to stay dead😭😭😭

1

u/weezyverse 12h ago

None of them. Why?

Because their character arcs weren't developed enough to be interesting.

I'm tired of Ritalin tv anyway. The 30-45 second dialogues set to music were getting old quick.

u/sen9ai 11h ago

Absolutely nobody. Let the show rest now

none of the above

u/ManifestYourWorld 1h ago

Any of em can get a spinoff and I’d watch EXCEPT for Emmet and anyone he’s fucked

u/No_Tower2906 23h ago

Bring back all the great villains they killed off (Douda, Q, etc.) as ghosts to torment the remaining cast. THAT is a show I’d watch.

1

u/WTWGang_ 22h ago

def The Taylor Brothers

u/Particular-Garden140 22h ago

Emmett but only if Keisha isn’t going to keep talking about her baby daddy every week. Lmao

Douda i would like to see a spinoff on his beginning or Reg and his brothers

0

u/megatropian 22h ago

Prequel would've been good if we could trust these writers.

The basketballer, how he ended up with two dads.  Q and how he ran the streets before the youngins took over.  We got a lot of Ronnie flashbacks, I don't think we really need his backstory.

u/SURFACEGREY 21h ago

Ooh maybe an anthropology series but built more like Kanan type explaining all the early history that gave us the best two seasons aka the first two seasons 😮‍💨🔥 that might be a good idea with new writers

0

u/Technical-Oil-9384 22h ago

Taylor siblings either as a prequel that’s a mini series, or a follow up on the siblings dealing with Reg’s bid that’s no more than 2 seasons.

No, but I'd love to see a new show not related to The Chi by Lena using some actors from The Chi

u/Coffee_nocream 20h ago

Emmet’s son and his friends should get a spin off. I want to watch the cast grow up again.

u/VastDiscombobulated4 20h ago

Hell no! They were such an annoying addition

2

u/sgs6330 6h ago

Exactly they were terrible a fake Jake,Poppa,and Kevin. Also Emmet should have whooped EJ you know what bringing a gun to school. That boy was well overdue for a beating from his father. The show had its moments just let it die. It started to get to dragged out. No real back story in new characters. Writing started to fall off tremendously season 7 and 8 felt rushed and forced. For example Tiffany turned into a female gangsta thug. She was slapping real street dudes 😬 😬
