Netflix's 'On My Block' stars are getting big pay raises for season 3 - here's how their salaries stack up to other Netflix actors

The <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/13-reasons-why-controversy-suicide-dangerous-2017-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first season garnered controversy</a> for its depiction of mental illness and other issues, including a graphic scene in which a female student kills herself. Despite this, it still managed to achieve a much higher 80% critics score on RT.</p><p>Last year, Netflix <a href="http://www.thisisinsider.com/13-reasons-why-adds-message-at-start-of-show-2017-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">addressed complaints about "13 Reasons Why"</a> with a message at the beginning of the series asking viewers to reach out to a suicide prevention network if they are affected by the content. There is also a new <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/13-reasons-why-netflix-warning-video-season-two-2018-3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video message</a> that plays at the beginning of the series that warns some viewers it "may not be right" for them if they struggle with any of the issues the series is about.</p><p>So, what happened with season 2, and why does it have such a low Rotten Tomatoes score compared to the first season? The second season also depicts troubling issues, but critics say it doesn't pull enough from the source material and loses the narrative structure of the first season, which some say has been problematic. </p><p><span>"The show has sacrificed the momentum associated with season one's structure," wrote<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/16/entertainment/13-reasons-why-season-2-review/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> CNN's Brian Lowry</a>.</span></p><p>Furthermore, the actual content of "13 Reasons Why" is still unsettling for many. A media <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/16/entertainment/13-reasons-why-season-2-review/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">watchdog group has requested that Netflix pull the series</a> because of its content. And experts told Business Insider that <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/13-reasons-why-season-2-problem-mental-health-2018-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">season 2 fails to address a dangerous problem</a>, in that Hannah - the character who took her own life in season 1 - is still a prominent character in the second season. </p><p><span>"There was a kind of romanticization, and at the core of the story was this idea that you can kill yourself and be dead and yet not really be dead," </span>Don Mordecai<span>, Kaiser Permanente's national leader for mental health, said. "Because, of course, [Baker] continues to be a character - she's in scenes, and she's still there in many ways."</span></p><p><span>In general, Season 2 seems to create more controversy for itself but fails to deliver an equally engaging storyline, which critics liked about the first season. </span></p><p><strong>Read more critic reactions to "13 Reasons Why" season 2 below:</strong></p>

Selena Gomez, one of the executive producers on the Netflix drama series, says that it's just reflecting back what's happening in reality.<p>"This is happening every day," Gomez said when asked about the controversy Monday on the national radio show,"Elvis Duran and the Morning Show." "Whether or not you wanted to see it, that's what's happening."</p><p>"13 Reasons Why" follows a group of high school students who find out that they're all involved in a female classmate's decision to commit suicide from recordings she made before taking her life. The series not only depicts alcohol and drug abuse, extreme bullying, and sexual assaults by the teens, it also graphically shows the teen girl's suicide. Critics and mental-health experts have argued that the show <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/13-reasons-why-adds-message-at-start-of-show-2017-5">"glamorizes suicide"</a> in a way that could be harmful to teen viewers or viewers who are contemplating or have contemplated suicide.</p><p>Since the show's debut back in March, it has been mired in such complaints.

"It's dark and it has moments that are honestly very hard to swallow. And I understood that we were doing something that is difficult. But these kids today are so exposed to things that I would never even comprehend when I was eight.
