What Are the Critics Saying about The Chi Season 5?

The Chi Season 5 does not have an official critics rating yet but has an average audience score of 75% on Rotten Tomatoes. Most viewers have liked how this season has evolved to focus more on the relationships between characters.

Tyrese King from The Floor Mag says, “The show occupies a space in which storytelling is one of the most effective ways to connect with a wide audience and lends itself to voices that are traditionally marginalised, often struggling to be heard above the noise and finally are given the opportunity to be front and centre.”

Meaww’s Vrinda Mundara writes, “The show has managed to create a permanent place in the hearts of fans and audiences across the globe. The show has been applauded for its excellent representation of Black people who live in the Southern side of California with an emphasis on their daily struggles.”
