Honestly at first it felt off, especially seeing what the show had done with existing characters such as Ruby's parents. The show tried a bit too hard to be goofy and in turn lost a sense of seriousness/ adult that omb had. Omb didn't really feel like a goofy teenage show it was entertaining and serious at the same time however the spin-off feels like it's trying to hard to cater to the new generation with crystals and spirituality being waaayyyy too important to the plot
But the show was very entertaining, binged it all in a day and I also originally thought the gang plot line was too thin but it ended up thickening, hopefully s2 will have a more serious aroma.

I really liked On My Block, its a fun teen show, the cast was pretty nice, it had a good plot, the characters were mostly enjoyable and the comedy was good. So i went to watch this mess with some expectations, but oh my, this is beyond awful. The characters are annoying and uninteresting, there's nothing to be curious about or even pay attention to in the story. In the original show Freeridge was shown as a dangerous neighborhood but they knew how to balance the teenager lives with the gang related stuff. Here it just feels like a boring ass place where nothing happens. Also its very cringe when they try to force some romance between characters because it feels forced, unlike On My Block. I don't recommend this crap to anybody.
Because I loved On My Block, I thought that this'd be more of the same... how WRONG I was.
Firstly, this is far too Alphabetised; LGHDTV all over the place, and as always, ever since 2017, they're heavy-handed with it.
Now, I'm 100% straight, like 12:30. Overkill is overkill; I do NOT want to be force-fed Alphabet soup every goddamned day.
Even my love for the prequel couldn't convince me to endure another episode of this blatant agenda push.
Not happening. Which is a goddamned shame.
They did the exact same thing with BP2: Wakanda Forever, and it ended up being banned in China and the Middle East. Well done Hollyweird, we see you... Heavy-handed agenda-forcing means NO-WAY, in my book!

I don't know where to begin here. Talk about stereotyping. Talk about cliches a-go-go. The typical teenage rom com has been done so much now.
This is that for generation z but generation clueless. Utterly shambolic writing. Overacting. Overstaging. Constant fights. It's the same formula recycled for the entire season.
It's generic script-play and acting and it's not good to enjoy at all. I do not know why this was even commissioned. How the actors all seem hellbent on getting one-up on each other in various circumstances then realising their mistake and feeling the guilt is just so dull.
Diversity is great but it's dramatically and incorrectly overplayed and it's just not realistic at all. It's actually so stupid it's cringeworthy.
The only good thing is the camera work is fabulous and it's really nicely shot for this kind of show. There are moments in the show were I'm thinking oh this is a refreshing angle but then it just ruins it with incompetence and irrelevance.
It's crap.

I was a huge fan of the original On My Block so I was excited to check this out. If course it took me a little bit to warm up to a new crop of characters but once I did, I really enjoyed it! I like that they put some nods in to the original show and had mentions of story lines from the original show that tied Freeridge in. It did take me a couple of episodes to really get pulled in to the storyline but I am glad that I kept watching! I would love to see a second season! I feel like it has the same heartwarming comedic feel with an undercurrent of dark reality that the original did. I'll give it a second watch for sure.
