this show is underrated. everyone should watch it!
One of the best show on Netflix, 30 min is a good time so easy to binge. Each episode got better.
This was exactly like what I expected but at times also had unexpected moments. Overall okay series, nothing special about it, but can''t say it is unwatchable. Hoping for a renewal just for that cliffhanger on season finale. At this point Netflix is going for quantity over quality so... 6/10
At the heart of the story of On My Block is a group of Los Angeles teenagers consisting of Monse (Sierra Capri), Cesar (Diego Tinoco), Ruby (Jason Genao), Olivia (Ronni Hawk), Jasmine (Jessica Marie Garcia) and Jamal (Brett Gray). Together they conquer the neighborhood and enjoy boredom in the sun, but are also confronted with the social problems of their neighborhood. "On My Block" really surprised me because I'm usually not a fan of teen dramas. But "On My Block" actually manages to create strong characters that work well together and tell a story that often makes you laugh, but also has sad moments.
ugh, really dislike this one - extremely cringy at times, but still a fun storyline
I expected something like Snowfall. Or the kids season of The Wire. What I got in the first 5min was some unfunny comedy with bad actors and jokes straight out of some 90s sitcom. No thanks.
I love this show soooo much
This show is a strange one for me. It shares themes and plot points of several shows I love, but I feel it is not as successful as the others (Snowfall, Euphoria, Degrassi, etc). Did I enjoy it? Yes. Would I recommend it? Probably not. I think if you like other "adult focused teenage drama shows" I could mention it in that conversation and then recommend. With that being said, I am sure some people will watch it and love it. I would imagine that in most of those cases this would be a show where the audience is just beginning to dabble in the genre. Anyways, worth skipping unless there is particular interest. Average Season Review: 7/10 Recommendation: Skip (For Adult Themed Teen Drama Fans)
What started as a cute show ended up ripping my heart out by the end of the season. I did not expect to like this show so much!
Good Show. Coming of age. Ending could have been better. Definitely still Worth watching.
