And for my 254th comment I would like to point out how they short change Jamal (except for Ruby and Abuelita) until it’s convenient for them. Even to the point of hurting themselves. Of course I’m talking about the fact that Cesar was homeless for so long and never even thought to ask Jamal who had his own room and a two parent household which are known for being way less strict than single parent households.
Spooky is the best character, spooky is complex and understands that he can never get out of the gang life and you can tell he aspires for the simple life. I love him so much
No he's not. He sets his brother on a life a crime, almost taints his soul by making him murder. Ignore his own flesh and blood's cry's and begging, involved in gang war, and he has his bro wrapped around his pinky. He is the worst and I honestly feel sick at how much they paired him with Ruby.
I had it out for Monse’s mom when the first thing she did was have her straighten her hair. I knew some anti blackness was going to arise when they showed how they basically looked alike now that her hair was straight and montage with the coffee shops and MacBooks. I like how at least one of her new rich girl friends actually liked her though and wasn’t fetishizing the struggle.
So spot on. But one thing I'm confused on, I thought Monse was mixed with black and Latina. But her mom is just a white woman right, not Latina? So Monse learned Spanish from living in freebridge?
Moto Gyal I’m pretty sure Jamal said “halves can’t take away the black cards of fulls” so I think she just picked it up from her friends and the neighborhood. I don’t think we’ve seen her have whole conversations in Spanish yet.
He’s always having a “jamal moment” lol. On his lives and interviews, he’s literally like his character jamal. Even the other cast members stated that he’s so much like his character.
You just explained why I love OMB in ways that I never could. OMB's haters always focus on the acting and eh jokes but the show is so much more than that, it's my childhood and the mannerisms and traditions I grew up with and only focusing on the acting discounts the authenticity of the show so gracias :)
AZI Couldn’t sit through a single episode. It was the WORST. THE WORST. It was like the writers wanted to see how many cliches they could fit into one episode. And in like, the first ten minutes they hit ALL OF THEM. EVERY SINGLE ONE. THE WORST.
@@user-ud2pq4wr4h No I understand that and my opinion still stands. I think All American is corny, but still serves as entertaining and mildly politically interesting. It has some good character development as the show goes on
I got through the first season of on my block so quickly. All american episode 1 was painful. Aside from the main dude all the characters were so damn annoying (or boring).
I swear it has to be Lil Ricky that kidnapped them. There's been subtle hints throughout the show that Lil Ricky was more of an important character than the plot says. For example Oscar, "Spooky," has a tattoo on his right arm that says Lil Ricky and he says in the scene at Jamal's house that he scares him. This leads me to believe he was a powerful leader in the Santos feared by everyone. Thinking Lil Ricky faked his own death and began the puzzle. He left the hints with Cuchillos because he knew he was crazy and talked to gnomes and he would wait for someone to figure out the Rollerworld hints were there. If he wasn't dead, how would he have been able to set up every detail of the plan in proportion such as the flower company on his tomb stone? I think he was watching them the whole time. Following them to the library, Pimp Lane, everywhere. He might have kidnapped them because they were the only ones to successfully find the money. Idk that's all I got so far. 😂
I feel like I'm the only one that's not a Monse and Ceasar fan lol like I always skip their parts :/ ... But Spooky mhm 😍😌 he can get it , and I love Ruby , Jamal and Jasmine 🙌🏼 they're my favs
Finally! I’m always watching your videos. Like all the time! And I actually personally know Ruby, we went to the same high school together. I love the fact that you made this video.
"Everyone's still making their love montages" How did u know? Also, don't lie, you know u want one. You don't need to make a whole review just to hide the fact that that you are a Monse/Ceasar shipper. All u have to do is ask.
I absolutely love this show. Binged season two in one go and have since watched it multiple times. I even got my mom to watch it and she never likes anything I watch. Jamal and Ruby are her favorites.
Wow this video might be my favorite of yours so far. First off, I agree with just about every bit of your commentary. When I watched season 1 last year, I was telling all my friends about the show before I even got to Episode 10 because that’s how good it is. Second, tbh kinda wanted some Abuelita praise because she’s a baddie but you know time limits 😂 And lastly, that Nipsey clip... *chef’s kiss* Beautifully put as far as his statements 🙏🏾 and exceptional timing, editing and of course commentary on your end 👏🏾 Great job!!!
I agree with you so much about giving the prophets more perspective and building Latrell’s character , because right now the prophets and Latrell seem one sided and I would just like to build depth to their characters.
Dude....Jamal and Ruby are my favorite characters. Jamal carries that whole show alongside Jasmine and Ruby in MY opinion. I love Jamal so much. No lies. Don’t @ me but tbh Monses acting throws me off sometimes for some reason but I still like her.
This is honestly my favorite video. I loved how much passion you had and fun you had speaking about it. How well put together the video was from start to finish.
Probably. when Latrelle rolled up on Monse and Cesar and Cesar of course told his brother Spooky so the Santos had Cesar try to take out Latrelle basically man up and settle a problem when Cesar let Latrelle go tho and give him a chance Latrelle got put in the same position as Cesar would end up going thru throughout season 2 Latrelle can't run away from home so he did the only thing he can do let his crew the Prophets know what happened and of course now he had to settle his score and that's when Latrelle went and shot Olivia and Ruby but for sure he most likely went there to take out Cesar not Ruby. Both Cesar and Latrelle are the same only difference is Cesar couldn't pull the trigger the first time and Latrelle did. Both kids who can't run from home and their hood.
I literally just saw the show, thanks to the S3 trailer. And here's how the main characters should be ranked based off of how good they are. It goes 1.Jamal 2.Jasmine 3.Ruby 4.Olivia rip 5.Caesar And in last is Monse, she is so annoying 😡 And just wants people to agree with her, right or wrong.
Im black and white ppl have been telling me my entire life how hard or not hard my life has been especially in my grade school through high school days so yea we know example 1 time my friend asked me why I couldn’t email her on my own laptop in 2nd grade and i told her bc my mom can’t afford to buy me my own mind u its 1995 and i was like 7 and then the PTA gave me can goods for thanksgiving and a toy doll evey yr for Christmas until I graduated bc i was “poor” new flash who buys a 7 yr old a $1795 laptop just to email their friends?? 🙄
I grew up on the "hood" and I can very sure say that on my block is kind of like the hood there are some random shootings and people getting beat up in the real "hood" but going to school was way harder than in the show
One thing that got me straight up Mad in the show was how everybody started claiming that it was their money not Jamall’s this man found the money this man believed when everybody doubted him but y’all wanna sleep on him this man carried the crew this man is a legend this man is a man I can respect
I initially watched this show cause the show runner was also MTV Awkward’s show runner. And I loved the simplicity and realness of Awkward. And I have the same amount of love for this show. I love it so much.

Nah you did Jamal dirty... he legit carries that show
Judiffa true bc without the roller world money the show would be boring tbh
Fr without Jamal the show would be dry asf
IM SAYING BRUHHH
CHACHA BINGOS
Judiffa I think it’s a mix of all of them. I think people just have a hard time understanding the difference in characters.
Shout out to the writers for acknowledging that olivia's Spanish accent was trash.
She was also a trump supporter and their demographic audience (minorities of the age 14-24) didn’t like her.
@@samminicksm do you mean the actress? ...cuz that's really ironic with her playing a child who's parents were deported. Wild.
Naomi Francois Yeah, the actress. I wasn’t too clear on that.
Naomi Francois ya the actress isn’t even Mexican and has been called out by a previous co-star that she said “all Mexicans are gardeners”
Alberto Villasenor And she played a Latina, I think also Mexican, in a Disney Channel show.
Spooky is the best character, spooky is complex and understands that he can never get out of the gang life and you can tell he aspires for the simple life. I love him so much
No he's not. He sets his brother on a life a crime, almost taints his soul by making him murder.

Season 3 is hella good.
I LOVED Jasmine since season 1. She's unapologetically herself!

Right... she’s my favorite

JAMAL AND JASMINE ARE SUPER UNAPPRECIATED !!!
nina serrano Jamal isn’t unappreciated at all
Nah
Just jamal
so truuuu
Jamal even says it

@@mykiamoto7145 Her mama is white and Latina

So no one is gonna mention Brett Gray having a Jamal moment at 1:52?
Tiereney Ulmer haha didn’t even notice
Tiereney Ulmer lmao I thought I was the only one that noticed, he’s so fabulous
He’s always having a “jamal moment” lol. On his lives and interviews, he’s literally like his character jamal. Even the other cast members stated that he’s so much like his character.
I'm saying
Tiereney Ulmer 😂😂
Monsè said her dad was a prophet so I would also love to see his point of view
I thought it was her uncle
Leah Todd I heard her dad say he was a prophet but maybe she also has an uncle who was too?
Leah Todd now I have to rewatch haha
She said her father grew up around prophets and was raised by one (his father and maybe uncles).
yeah the dad said he wasn’t raised by the same prophets once they added the $ to the name
No one talking about the shade they threw at ronni with the Spanish dictionary scene?? Like DAMNNNN shadeeeeeeee😂😂😂😂
b ikr😂😂😂
Even I have a better accents than her I’m at terrible at Spanish 😭😂
Jamal carried season 2🤷🏿♂️
Him and the grandma arguing all the time was amazing 😂
He’s under appreciated
on god
i swear y’all be forgetting about Ruby
Just Friends periodt.
Jamal is like a young Chris Tucker.
Ikr without the cursing and shit
No he is a young Marlon Wayane
This TV show had one of the best soundtracks change my mind
JDL YES everyone song matched with the situation
Periodt
Periodttt
Glitter by 070 shake still gives me goosebumps
i *hate* the kind of music that is in the soundtrack but damn the soundtrack was amazing i just have to appreciate it
Ruby and Jamal were my favourite characters
saloni my top 3 is
1: jamal
2: Ruby
3: Jasmin
Ughh they’re killing it.
I love Jamal! He is comedy! I hope he gets far in is acting career.
@@justfriends7581 he's actually done the most acting out if everybody. I hope he starts to get more main roles
PERIODT
ayah chihadeh PERIODT
I was waiting on him to mention Jamal and he barely said anything, nothing positive 😂 he’s the most talented actor and character
He’s the worst character so annoying and corny
@@elvisrodriguez9982 He's not annoying. He keeps me sane with all the drama going on.
He is my fav character but he isn’t the most talented
monse is such a bad actor tho i cantt her crying face looks like she's constipated?
@@HaloFallxx some people look constipated when they cry
I wanna see that Latrelle theory play out.
“Yo Rube... I know I shot you and killed your girl.. but we cool right?”
My exact description of the show is quote from in the show “It’s corny,but I like it”
You just explained why I love OMB in ways that I never could. OMB's haters always focus on the acting and eh jokes but the show is so much more than that, it's my childhood and the mannerisms and traditions I grew up with and only focusing on the acting discounts the authenticity of the show so gracias :)
Nathalie Gonzalez OMG thank you sisssss 💯❤️🤩
Nathalie Gonzalez bullshit😂😂
Ruby is the best character tho
Bro what you said about Latrell(?), I hope that’s what the writers are going to incorporate because it’ll take the plot so much more interesting
OMG I THOUGHT CHIVO BEING LIL RICKY WOULD MAKE SENSE TOO
OMG MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY
OMG THEORY IM THROWING HANDS IF THE PRODUCERS DONT SAYTHAT
I saw BOTH seasons and i LOVE it
Ay no hate but how you gon see season 2 but not season 1 my ghee
This show was so underrated last year I’m so glad they got the recognition they deserve!
jasmine actually became my 2nd favorite character after season 2
Aniyah Bradley after Jamal ? Cuz same 😂
Its pretty wack that the actor is over 30 years old and is playing a 15 y-o
I hate Jamal

Just say it straight. She can't act. Especially the emotional scenes. I mean I know she's a new actress and all but so are the others... 🤷🏾♀️
I KNOW RIGHT!!!!!
she just can’t act
avocado you’re not the only one. She needs to work on her acting .
“Spooky could probably lead an entire season on his own”
He carried season 3, the scene with his father was the best scene in the entire season.
75% jamal & 25% ruby carried the show
it'sTy4 Short 20% ruby 5% spooky
Bxnjo
Wakey wakeey biacht
My fav character has got to be between Ruby/Ruben or spooky and s/o Jasmine great character development they actually had all great development
Jasmine and Jamal carried season 3 on their backs
You should definitely watch all American it is SO GOOD

It defo hit home.
Jamal and ruby eating the edible is the funniest moment

Serena Potter and Ruby
But who knows
Miriam veloz tf you mean who knows bruh you don’t forgive and forget that shit

You gotta do another one on season 3, the season finale left me wild
im hip
Spooky got some nice hair
I love the cover art for the show, it reminds me of one of my favourite book series "Animorphs" when I was younger.
Let's all be honest. Without Jamal aka Brett Gray, this show would've flopped.
"Everyone's still making their love montages"
How did u know? Also, don't lie, you know u want one. You don't need to make a whole review just to hide the fact that that you are a Monse/Ceasar shipper. All u have to do is ask.
FallingForFiction big facts I ship them along with the great jasby 💕💕💕
I cried when the leader of the gang turned around and it was Cesar😭
Finally. I have been waiting so long!!!
Ruby’s character growth is insane. He’s my fave person hands down.
11:40 “Cause obviously wouldn’t leave her friend.” Lisssttttennnnnn...
that’s a lie
*3 Years Later*
What's sad it they don't go to season 5 😭😭 if you haven't seen season 3 and season 1 saddest endings we need more of on my block 😭👌🏾
I was waiting on ur review and u just had to rip my heart out at the end. The marathon continues
No other way to end it
This show could easily be 12 seasons I swear if they stop at season 3 imma be heated
I absolutely love this show. Binged season two in one go and have since watched it multiple times. I even got my mom to watch it and she never likes anything I watch. Jamal and Ruby are her favorites.

Make another one for season 3😀
1:52

Great job!!!
The kidnappers are the irs remember when they called ruby 😭😂
I agree with you so much about giving the prophets more perspective and building Latrell’s character , because right now the prophets and Latrell seem one sided and I would just like to build depth to their characters.
I love this show because of how it’s kinda original and something some people can connect too
This show is literally everything!!
I’d like to thank you for getting me into this show last year. It’s only getting better.
the seriousness mixed with the right amount of comedic relief this season made me love it more than season 1
11:40 "she wouldn't leave her friends" flashforward to the season 3 finale where the crew has gone their separate ways 🥺
Dude....Jamal and Ruby are my favorite characters. Jamal carries that whole show alongside Jasmine and Ruby in MY opinion.

Question: why did Latrelle wanna kill Cesar in the first place
Was it cause he said he’d ‘blast on him’ when Latrelle rolled up on him and Monse
Probably. when Latrelle rolled up on Monse and Cesar and Cesar of course told his brother Spooky so the Santos had Cesar try to take out Latrelle basically man up and settle a problem when Cesar let Latrelle go tho and give him a chance Latrelle got put in the same position as Cesar would end up going thru throughout season 2 Latrelle can't run away from home so he did the only thing he can do let his crew the Prophets know what happened and of course now he had to settle his score and that's when Latrelle went and shot Olivia and Ruby but for sure he most likely went there to take out Cesar not Ruby. Both Cesar and Latrelle are the same only difference is Cesar couldn't pull the trigger the first time and Latrelle did. Both kids who can't run from home and their hood.
It could also be the beef between the gangs
