[@lunadot9486]

Binged the entire series in one weekend. I agree that the final season felt rushed even with the same number of episodes as previously. A problem with season 4 was they attempted to present 2, 3 years of story in one season. From my understanding, the show starts the summer before they enter high school (season 1) and by the end of season 3 (excluding the time jump) it's only the following summer. It was a big task to turn around and cover so much time in one season; also all the episodes are around 25min. Maybe if the episodes were 60min, they could've fully explored the characters' changes post-drift, and not just have discussions about it. I actually liked Ruby & Jasmin's relationship. C'mon, compared to Caesar & Monse? Plus we got to see normal relationship problems, that they care about each other and have the best chance at a healthier reconciliation in the future. Oscar deserved better! I suspect he started considering leaving the gang-life while he was in prison. Cesar's actions had a part in Oscar's death. Whether it was the Prophets or not, if he wasn't a target, he was likely bait to find Oscar. Jasmin's family did her dirty! How are you going to say to your niece she's the first to go to college just to be like "Yeah well, I feel like putting a stop to that." I think Jasmin's mother passed away; from what I can tell it's just herself, dad, aunt, cousin (aunt's son), and his wife. If her story's ever revisited, I hope Ruby or Jamal's parents take in Jasmin's dad so she can go to Berkley. Or maybe Mario can live in her house so her dad doesn't get stressed from the change. I like Jamal and Jasmin's friendship and definitely want to see more of it. Maybe the spinoff discusses the Roller World money the new gang trying to take over Free Ridge?

[@ayomikunismail6249]

This season felt a bit rushed and I wish they included some more things as it was the last season. - I wish they played changes by dej loaf as that song kind of encapsulated season 1 and was played when ruby and Olivia were shot. In season 2 when ruby hears that song at a dance it triggers him. If they played it in season 4 during prom maybe, then maybe we could’ve had a nice moment of ruby making peace with everything happening and some growth? Idk - I think a reference to season 1 when Mario sat them down on the couch and told them to stay friends before they started high school would have been nice. They didn’t talk for 2 years but eventually found their way back to one another proving Mario’s point that they’re stronger together than apart - they should’ve not killed spooky. Like why? - ok I feel like at some point they could’ve mentioned Olivia. Hear me out ok she was a major part of season 1 and her getting shot was the beginning of the gang dealing with loss and death. Especially for ruby. A part of me was hoping that when he met with Latrell he would mention that he still talks to her parents or thinks about her or something. It’s like damn they really pretend that girl never existed lol - I wanted a graduation scene from them. Prom was fun but I think seeing them in their caps and gowns would have also worked - some explanation of what happened to the roller world money. Like wtf it’s just gone? That was a huge plot line and no payoff . Maybe they’re saving it for the spin off idk - I wish there didn’t write jasmines aunt moving as a way for jasmine to not go to Berkeley. Like wtf she got in full ride and was so excited and I felt bad for my girl - less of the mess that is monse and Cesar. Either they’re together or they’re not Overall season 1 is my favourite season. The tone of the show, soundtrack, introduction to the characters and vibe really made me fall in love with the show. Its the only time we know them pre trauma before all the shit that happens in season 2-4.

It’s not completely Caesar’s fault Spooky got killed. You have to remember he was in that life a very long time. He was trying to push Caesar in that life for like half of the show. It’s just the minute he wanted to change and become better, the life caught up to him. This happens to a lot of people in real life. However Caesar was beyond annoying, and I feel he not getting enough heat for cheating on Vera.

[@ryebread5667]

This season was TERRIBLE. Here is my list of a few of the things I could not stand: 1. I never really liked Monse, but they absolutely killed her vibe in the new season. Her thing was always starting little drama to the group that added flavor. And then they made her all preppy and wise and sh*t. Like I get she changed since it had been two years after all, but her character had no flavor in season 4. 2. Vero deserved WAY better. She was brought up like she was gonna add lots to the plot, but never did. Her character had so much to bring to the story, but we never really got to know her. And not to mention Monse and Cesar's relationship were just all over the place and was SO confusing. Like, they smashed when Cesar was with Vero and she just got back with him. And Monse and him still kissed again so like are Vero and him in a full relationship or not?! 3. There was no actual plot this season, just a lot of extra bs. Like how disappointing when the car following Jamal was just some rich guy who wanted to offer him a job. And Cesar's gang life was so boring! UGH! 4. Spooky and Abuelita deserved WAY better. They were the glue for this show and should not have been killed off. 5. I hate how everyone just told Jasmine to accept the fact that she was gonna have to take care of her dad. Like, she definitely should have gone to college. And the audacity that they had to show this whole self-care journey but they just made her decide not to go to college in like 2 episodes?! 6. And lastly, the thing that urks me the most. Cesar's effing tough guy attitude and voice. His voice was so deep and forced, it was so bad. His character got so bad this season. 7. There were so many opportunities for good plot but no no no. This season SUCKED. They could have done more with the money being taken from Cesar, Spooky's wife, and so much more. But they decided to focus on little stuff like Jamal's prom dates and Monse and Cesar's relationship (which has gotten so old). These are just some of my dislikes btw. I have a lot more lmao. Overall rating: 3.5/10 (and that's being generous)

Personally I believe it should have ended at season 5 because this season had way too much stuff to process and the pacing was too quick for me.

[@cinnanexx]

Also they left so many things unresolved

[@Tootiexx]

This season was very bleek, i loved season 1 & season 2, after that i feel like the storyline just went wacky lol

[@marisadiorr9138]

SPOILER ALERT 🚨 My Thoughts on Season 4 of On my Block 1 . When Abuelita died from cancer I thought that Ruby was going to break down and cry and then in the next scene everyone is smoking weed and having a good time when his father told him to let it out I was thinking he was going to boo-hoo cry him and Jamal .. Also where were Ruby’s brother” Mario “ and the twins … Ruby cried his eyes out when Olivia died but he doesn’t shed a tear when his grandma passed away 2 .So the police found Cuchillo’s bones and they questioned Monse , Ruby , Jamal , and Cesar and all they had to say was they were looking for big foot and that’s it .. and if Cuchillos had men you would think they would try to find out what happened to her 3. So We don’t know who kill spooky and why we don’t know if it was the Santos , The Prophets or the 19th gang .. Also Officer Hammel doesn’t check on Cesar when Spooky dies , he doesn’t try to find out what happened at all .. Which doesn’t make sense considering how involved he was in Spooky and Cesar life in the earlier seasons 4 . Something else that didn’t make sense was Jamal having sexual feelings for Monse all of a sudden 5 . Jasmine was super Annoying this season … She wasn’t letting Ruby talk for himself .. I don’t see why Jasmine and Jamal had to hide their friendship from Ruby … When that’s what Ruby wanted to happened in the first place … Which is why Jamal And Ruby didn’t talk for two years because Jamal got tired of being a third wheel and Ruby was complaining about Jamal not giving Jasmine a chance .. So it made no sense for them to hide their friendship 6. So the Core 4 met Lil Ricky after 3 seasons and it did nothing for the storyline at all whatsoever it was like they met Lil Ricky and it was like oh OK whatever 7 . So we only hear Kendra mentioned one time this Season and then at the end of the season she shows up and gives Jamal a weird business deal out of nowhere So who is Cesar going to be with Monse or Vero ? because at the end of season four it was never determined because Monse and Cesar seem liked they were just back to being friends So when the Core 4 tell their parents everything that was happening over the years with roller world and the parents were really nonchalant about it they was like oh well it happened they wasn’t too mad about it they wasn’t fearing for their kids safety. When Spooky died the Core 4 didn’t seem upset about or shed a tear at all .. I liked how Jamal’ s character was in the first two episodes of season 4 .. it was better seeing him not being so goofy all the time but they went right back to his character being goofy and silly as him and Ruby made up So when spooky died and the Santos wasn’t messing with Cesar no more who was paying rent because he doesn’t have a job , he wasn’t in the gang anymore how was he getting money.. so i find it odd that Spooky didn’t leave Cesar anymore So Monse father( Monte ) has a new baby and we never get to see the baby lol What did Abuelita tell the police to get them to leave the core 4 alone Ruby going to Visit Latrell in Juvie was a emotional scene but I don’t feel sorry for Latrell because of what he did to Ruby And Olivia without any remorse

[@ayomikunismail6249]

I think the Scene with Latrell was very nuanced and one of the most impactful moments of the season . Like someone else said him and Cesar were living the same life. Difference is that he didn’t have an Oscar looking out for him down the line. Now that he’s realized is fate I think you can see some remorse for the actions he took

[@ayomikunismail6249]

As for Jamal I like that when he was friends with ruby again he had a mix of goofy and new found confidence. Those first 2 episodes he was an asshole lol. Jamal hold a special place in my heart because when we met him he was a loveable nerdy black boy and we need more of that on tv. In season 4 he was a loveable nerdy black boy who was getting laid 😂😂 like hell yeah best of both worlds if you ask me

[@cuzimblk5719]

I think the show would've just done fine without Oscar's death. I am SICK SICK SICKKK of Ceaser Salade and Monse. It's was cute in the first and second season but now the last too. I think the core 4 should've gotten into a bit of a situation with the cops to elevate the story. That whole 3some controversy was just nasty and unnecessary. These are MINOR'S. 3somes are an adult thing.

[@caseym8315]

Jazmine should have js put her dad in a nursing home and move on to bigger things I feel💀

[@c0smicchelsea]

EXACTLYYYY how do u get a full ride to BERKELEY yet deny that opportunity just to take care of someone professionals can take care of.

[@sarina719]

@@c0smicchelseabecause nursing homes r often abusive to elderly at least in the US and he is her dad who she loves very much

[@jesserivera2043]

I'm rewatching the show, so I was looking for content on it, and I agree regarding Jamal: he was a reminder that even though they had some very adult drama on the show, in the end they are kids. Then he became weirdly testosterony

[@andresvelez6538]

My main problem was how so many plot lines in this season just went nowhere

[@neivilde.1242]

i'm happy that they're making a spin off where they're gender bending it, and the guy cameron, who's the lead the way monse was, like we see through him first, is described as "a BIPOC who hasn’t dated any girls because he’s petrified of them. He does, however, date many boys. He’s been raised by his co-dependent divorced parents who still talk." which like yes give me that! it was cute to see them over the fence a nice parallel

[@solar5270]

The lartelle and ruby scene really had me tear up

[@lois4063]

It was the best moment in season 4.

[@cqntralls]

BROOO CESAR’S VOICE WAS WEIRDDD THIS SEASON 😭💀💀

[@ann-catherinedesulme9408]

“I didn’t like the series that much” *Proceeds to cry* 😂

[@kayla-rae4770]

This season was super rushed, each episode didnt not really connect to the last. Spooky didnt even deserve to die🙄🙄ceaser did. And they didnt even tell us who killed him. Then after he died they mourn him for like 2 mins then move on tf???? And abelitas death was even worse because like no goodbyes???? She didnt even look as if she was about to die that night. They just left us with more questions.🙄🙄🙄

[@chen-chan8650]

Ok..but can we talk about the wigs and the bald caps used in flash backs?😂

[@lois4063]

Kid Cesar literally didn't look like Cesar at all.

[@KassandraQuiseng]

I really unexpectedly liked Jasmine this season! I just hated the ending they gave her. Honestly out of everyone who deserved a dream ending, she did. I definitely would have preferred to see Jasmine flourish at the school of her dreams.

[@lucifia5220]

Jamal (and ofc Abuelita) is my favorite character, but the F-Boy thing was off for me too! He was talking about how he needed to be in love to enjoy s*x but this season he don’t care 😭 Idk, I didn’t like s*x crazed Jamal

[@aliyah8563]

The fact Monse had no regard over Veronica and Cesar's relationship was so out of character. When she caught them she didn't even show a inch of remorse or embarrassment. Might I add that Cesar went to prom with Vero and Monse STILL forgived him. Always hated their relationship

[@Im_bor3d0]

The block was not hot this season

[@Addie-lq4vm]

“Spooky became a spooky because of you” 👻💀 Spooky was scared to get a ghost now he is a ghost 💀💀🥹

[@jadamaynard-chung3046]

“Spooky became a spooky bc of you” yall I screamed 😭😭😭

[@clancysworld8188]

On my block season 4 felt like a cash grab i feel like Netflix and the creators didn't know what to do with this show except for disappointing us.

[@ila09a]

I’m just really going to miss how diverse this show was. So many people of color shining especially in the earlier seasons. I hope they are all successful though and we get to see them in many other projects! :)

[@boltskyline2957]

yeah, no. Diversity just means anti white

[@kaylinolkers6499]

Spooky became a Spooky because of you💀💀

[@cecivisd]

oh my-- I've never been this early :0 I love ur videos and listening to ur opinions!!

[@hailesankara480]

Caesar didn’t get ghetto , that boy went str8 GUTTA in szn 4 😆 lol

[@Sarah-mh5ez]

I think it was intentional to leave Spooky's killer at large, maybe to symbolize that Caesar will turn a new leaf by not avenging his brother's death? Mostly I agree with your review though! I'll miss the show and will probably re-watch it one day; can never get enough HAMAL and Aw-bwa-leeta!

[@erikasmith178]

i feel like each character got a season to like kinda be the main character like szn 1 was cesar szn 2 was ruby szn 3 was monse and szn 4 was jamal

[@NaniAli750]

I hated what they did to Jamal's character. They made him into the gross, narcissistic asshole and I was not ready to see that 😭. But I think by the end of the show even he wasn't happy with who he was becoming so I'm glad he realized that.

[@Gaby-yq4pn]

I didn’t cry finishing omb. And I don’t even remember the last time I didn’t not cry when I finished a show no matter how bad the last season was. I’m sad and disappointed of the finale that they gave us.

[@beauty-jc9xy]

My theory is, they didn’t want to make a season 4. They only did so because everyone was asking for one. I think spooky’s death is realistic but abuelitas was unneeded. And ceasers VOICE omdsss a messsss

[@ItswhatIsay]

I really hopped on here on some “I don’t care about spoilers” but then you get into some juicy information and now I feel like I gotta what the show 😭

[@katana614]

Your eyebrows are always 10/10😍 love your videos btw - review dynasty next please

WAIT like you said she brought the group back together…what if thats what she wanted before she passed since she like knew she was getting sick

[@smallshrimp1375]

Abuelita orchestrated all of this 😂

[@FinneyKatz]

3:08 the way my heart DROPPED 😨💔

[@boltskyline2957]

To me the cannon ending to this show is the ending to season 3. i like to imagine Spooky moved to another state to start a new life.

[@Fanylorena]

They really just needed to ended so you can tell they rushed it. I felt no emotional attachment to anyone (mainly because I forgot about this show) jasmine and ruby were…not it. That was unexpected and honestly uncalled for lol. At the beginning of this season jasmine was so annoying to me. I liked that they broke up and jasmine was doing her but they should have kept it that way. Like..make them just be friends and have ruby just be a past chapter of her life and move on. Monste and Caesar get like they are too much for no reason. They were madly in love, then they don’t talk for two years, see each other again twice, and immediately go back to sleeping together?? To then be like nah, he’s got a gf, like what was that? And to then still not have them together at the end!?!? The whole Jamal kinda liking monse I’m glad was just a little phase because to me they all have sibling energy so that was disturbing. Tbh I don’t care for abuelita that much, (maybe because I can’t relate. My grandma is the opposite of her) but Jamal and abuelita were definitely the funniest, honestly Jamal in general. He’s such a funny character I feel like the actor BODIED him. Unpopular opinion, I loved spooky as a gang leader. He was so intimidating I loved it. Him all happy and domestic felt and looked weird lol, basically him with hair was weird. Caesar’s gang role was so bad. He did not suit that lifestyle. I HATED. His voice. His supposedly mean face like he just looked so uncomfortable, I’m sorry but it was not a good role for the actor.

[@corporealj]

i feel like they should’ve had more episodes like get into it more get deeper in the plot points or like longer episodes there were so many plot points just dropped like jamal liking monse, jamal and his ex at the end working with that dude they definitely should’ve explained it more and showed him and his ex getting on hood terms again, jasmines aunt moving and her being stuck there should’ve been left out that really was just off putting ruining her life like that, monse’s relationship with ceaser shouldve been capped off completely, cuchillos being found and the gang stuff supposed to be going crazy they shoulda just left that out it was pointless unless they were gonna go into it, and like spooky and abulita just dying without and type of mourning at all is weird like all the trauma from the girl in s1 and they didn’t care at all hey just had that lil ass party and moved on, like they could’ve did more fr

[@packnetadaija]

I really didn't like this season either, like it went wwaayyy too fast. Oscar definitely deserved better this season, like I agree with you that he should've just cut his losses with Ceaser and just moved, like at the end of the day you cant help those who don't want to help themselves. Oscar had his own family now to think about with his wife and daughter and because he still wanted to see him be good he stayed in Freeridge too long and then got M*rdered. It's just sad. Yes, Monse was HELLA messy this season, like she was all up in Ceaser's house no fucks given even though she knew he had a GF, like when Vero came in she didn't try to hide or anything, it was just messed up. That scene where Vero is getting ready to fight her made me laugh really hard because Monse was sooo oblivious. I also hated how they did Jasmine dirty as well, like I get that Jasmine has to take care of her dad, but it's still just really sad. Also, why did they only do one episode to mourn Oscar, but they had a whole arch and season for Olivia? Overall I was really disappointed with this season especially considering this is the final season, I'm curious about the spin-off and see what that holds.

[@nikkix3662]

Every time I saw Cesar I thought he look like a teenage Aang and I don't know why

[@joyoni2130]

Also are we just never going to know what happened to the RollerWorld money?? Lol

[@hindalsh3]

Literally so many unanswered stuff such as who killed spooky and how did they get passed his death so easily that was so unnecessary, also this whole love triangle with vero all that for Mose and ceasar to not be endgame

[@ramonaflowers2813]

I have to watch you video I did enjoy the last season but what I really felt cheated in were the moments when such great characters like Oscar and Marisol died. I felt there was no breath there was one scene to the next at least when the first season when one of the characters died there was a whole season dedicated to what that grief can do and PTSD. Oscar dying was traumatic. I truly thought the main plots were well done I just felt like it was very much a lot of misunderstandings that lead to tragedy. Seriously this is one of my favorites series ever and I'm glad the final season was at least good

[@mayashantal4634]

love this review, and i hated the fact that they killed oscar so cesar could have some development, cuz we were already getting that development, he agreed to go with oscar

[@lois4063]

I agree, this season didn't handle alot of things well especially Spooky's death.
