Another real-life series from MTV that delves into the roller-coaster existences of a tight-knit group of friends, this one from the vibrant and diverse New York City neighborhood of Washington Heights. The nine young adults grew up just blocks from one another, and the bond they have formed over the years continues to tighten as they share both life's setbacks and its successes. The five guys and four ladies include group peacekeeper JP, budding singer Reyna, aspiring artist Ludwin, daydreamer Rico and his younger brother, Fred, and baseball star Jimmy and his girlfriend, Eliza, an outsider who causes conflict within the crew.

Critics Consensus

Washington Heights depicts a neighborhood not often seen on TV with respect, but its reliance on prepackaged drama dims the appeal.

Not only are the featured friends here much more likable and fully rounded people than their Jersey Shore counterparts, the show is much better shot. Go to Full Review Joanne Ostrow Denver Post 06/16/2020
Of course it's formulaic, but the cast is inviting and the formula works. Go to Full Review David Hinckley New York Daily News 06/16/2020
Most shows of this sort focus on the dynamics of the moment... "Washington Heights" has plenty of that. But it also somehow directs more of our attention to where this will all lead, and that feels unsettlingly foggy here. Go to Full Review Joel Moya Remezcla 06/16/2020
I appreciate the intention of a major network using my neighborhood to shoot anything that isn't a crime scene on (Name of NY Based Police Series) but it seems to me that this is just a show made to attract dollars from Spanish Advertisers. Go to Full Review Ariel Nagi Cosmopolitan 06/16/2020
I think the career-chasing part sends a positive message, but let's be real, is that really MTV's style? It seemed to me more like an episode of Made or True Life: I Want to Make it in the Music Industry. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
