On My Block season 4 is happening at Netflix, but it’s the final season
By Bryce Olin
Finally, Netflix renewed On My Block for season 4! We’ve been waiting for nearly a year for Netflix to announce On My Block season 4, and now it’s happening.
Variety reported On My Block season 4 is officially in the works at Netflix.
We expected this news, especially given the success of the first three seasons of the series and the cliffhanger at the end of season 3, which premiered on Netflix in March 2020.
Variety did not announce a reason for the lengthy renewal delay, but with everything going on with the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve seen lengthy delays and cancellations of hit shows across the industry.
On My Block season 4 will be the final season
Unfortunately, it’s not all good news for On My Block season 4. It’s great the show is coming back. It was just on our list of Netflix shows waiting to be renewed.
Netflix announced On My Block will end after season 4. It’s hard to say at this point if the On My Block is getting canceled or if the story has just run its course on the streaming service. I’m guessing it’s the latter. It’s difficult to stretch high school shows out for more than four seasons. It’s been done, obviously, but there are challenges.
It’s not a total surprise that On My Block is ending with season 4 either. Netflix has a pretty clear track record of shows only lasting three or four seasons, so I can’t say this was unexpected.
There are 10 more episodes of On My Block, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store in the new season.
When is On My Block season 4 on Netflix?
Now, the question becomes about the On My Block season 4 release date.
The Variety report did not mention when On My Block season 4 is coming to Netflix. I’m assuming we’re in for quite a long wait for the final season of the Netflix original series.
It doesn’t appear as though On My Block season 4 has been filmed yet. Once that happens, we’ll have to wait about six months after season 4 wraps production until it hits Netflix.
At the time of publishing, On My Block season 4 should hit Netflix sometime in 2022. Hopefully, it’ll be early 2022, but the COVID-19 pandemic continues to slow TV and movie production around the globe, especially in California where On My Block is filmed.
Stay tuned for more news about On My Block season 4. We’ll be sure to let you know as soon as we find out about the On My Block season 4 release date.
