Freeridge is a new Netflix comedy-drama series and spinoff of On My Block. The show follows two teenage sisters and their friends as they grapple with a mysterious curse placed upon them by an old box. Freeridge’s characters perpetuate the On My Block legacy of an eccentric “core four” friend group intertwined in forces bigger than themselves.

The new series’ predecessor ended after a four-season run in 2021. However, its finale hinted at the spinoff to follow when the new quartet made a brief cameo.

“[Freeridge co-creator Lauren Iungerich] the one who was like, ‘This is not like ‘On My Block,’ you are not here to replace. This is called core four, but we’re not replacing a core four; you are following their footsteps. They built this for you. You’re carrying it on,'” Bryana Salaz, who plays Ines, told The Wrap.
