Bashir Salahuddin and Diallo Riddle, the masterminds behind ComedyCentral's new series, explain how SouthSideChi came to be
, it was important to Salahuddin and Riddle to represent the area in a way that felt honest and holistic. Aside from Riddle and executive producerall of the show’s writers came from Chicago—mostly the South Side. A lot of their performers also still live in the area; Salahuddin and Riddle have mined their anecdotes for storylines.
The writers worked to imbue the series with a diverse cast of characters whose values, socioeconomic status, and ambitions varied widely. Instead of criminality or victimhood, the thing all of the show’s main characters have in common is their drive. Goodnight wants to get back to the North Side. Sgt. Turner has a side gig selling real estate. Simon’s main preoccupation is finding a get-rich-quick scheme that’ll help him pay child support.’s Stacy is an R.T.O.

Like, everybody was black: the rich and the poor, the dumb and the smart.” Another source of inspiration, Salahuddin said, was’s vision of Chicago. Of course, absurd obstacles keep getting in the way of these strivers’ paths. There are repo victims who refuse to relinquish their furniture, an aging civil rights activists who lives rent-free in one of Sgt. Turner’s buildings, and a smarmy Ivy Leaguer who refuses to get out of Allen Gayle’s way. On this show, the most sinister characters aren’t gangsters—they’re the white gentrifiers like the yuppie couples who show up to look at Sgt. Turner’s properties.a joy.
