Trey Mangum of Shadow and Act wrote, `` On My Block is different than anything we 've seen on television in relation to the experience of growing up. The stars are young people of color, dealing with real issues that happen in communities that they have to wrangle with during this pivotal time in their lives. For a lovely story about friendship and timely societal issues, along with superb youth acting, here is your next binge. '' Alexis Gunderson of Paste said, `` When the final credits hit, it 's clear that not one second of the season 's 10 short episodes was wasted : Every line was measured out, every background track meticulously calibrated, every initially jarring tonal shift set up precisely for a singular cumulative effect that lands in the season 's final moments like a punch to the chest you realize too late you should have seen coming from a mile away. '' Matt Seitz of New York Magazine wrote, `` One of the many remarkable things about this series is how it folds crime and the awareness of potential violence into everyday life, which is something white sitcoms never do unless it 's a Very Special Episode.
