On My Block (season 3)

⭐ 7.5/10

(Originally written by Magdalene)

This show with its high school characters and setting on the streets is so high drama and high intensity, but I think it's the group of friends at its center that keeps me watching. This season felt less high-stakes than the one before, as the kids search for a former gang leader to avoid threats, but I could still feel the tension.

There were some really funny moments courtesy of Jamal, and some eye-roll moments due to Cesar's subpar dramatic acting. I relate with Monse, who just wants to keep the crew together. I still appreciate the diversity of the cast, and the portrayal of life in the dangerous part of town. Something about this show just keeps me coming back every season.
