‘On My Block’ is a show about a group of teens named Caeser, Monse, Jamal, and Ruby who have complicated lives, and who are trying to juggle between school and friendships while trying to find rollerworld money. This show was released March 16, 2018 and is rated TV-14 because it contains gangs, violence, and strong language.

*Recap

In the first season of ‘On My Block’ the group of teens were watching a high school party from over a brick wall. They were talking about how freshman year will be awesome, and they were also mentioning that they wanted to get their friend Caesar out of the Santos gang, but it was hard for them to help him because they had no money. So, in order to help Caesar all the teens came together to try and find the rollerworld money, which was money that was supposedly hidden by the Santos gang.

Monse and Ruby think that there’s no rollerworld money so they start losing hope until Jamal starts putting the pieces together. After that, Jamal ends up finding the money but keeps it a secret because the group was having a complicated time and he didn’t want to stress anyone. They had no idea how much the money would change their lives, but they all felt the pressure building. In the end, the whole group had to decide whether finding the cash was worth all the secrets and drama it brought with it.
