The main thing that sucks about spin offs or sequels is that people compare them to the originals. Let's face it, the original On My Block series was and still is one of Netflixs greater shows I would binge on a daily. However, all things must come to an end and something new is presented. And what we have is Freeridge. On My Block was already diabolical yet realistic with very relatable characters and impressive story telling with some A+ acting. Freeridge takes diabolical and amps it up several notches. I'm all for it. As Jamal from On My Block was one of the major highlights from the original that pushed boundaries of realism and fiction in his arc alone. This show takes that and piles on top of it which is executed pretty quickly and in your face. As a fan of the series who is used to the og characters and the show alone, I gave this a chance and opened my mind to appreciate them continuing the universe for this show, Freeridge, is one hell of a funny ride from start to finish. It deserves a chance and a lot more support from fans of the original series. If On My Block is a 9 out of 10, Freeridge is an 8 out of 10, for bringing new and familiar characters, New plot, and extremely funny moments back on the screen.
