All American: Homecoming is a spin-off of All American (2018). Geffri Maya, Peyton Alex Smith, Kelly Jenrette, Cory Hardrict, Sylvester Powell, Camille Hyde, Mitchell Edwards, Netta Walker and Rhoyle Ivy King star.
Set against the backdrop of the highly competitive HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) at Bringston University, the story revolves around a group of talented athletes and students. This semester, Simone (Maya) finally has a top six spot on the tennis team, but to prove she belongs there, she's looking for a new kind of sisterhood. Damon has found his birth parents, but the truth about why he was given up leads him to make a hasty decision that threatens the baseball team and opens the door for a new opponent.

Amara (Jenrette) has found a new role as Bringston's chairwoman. Marcus (Hardrict) is determined to make amends with his team and himself. JR (Powell) tries to mend his relationship with his father. Thea (Hyde) struggles to find her way back to the field after her injury. Keisha (Walker) finds her feet in the dance program and her relationship with Cam (Edwards), who must find a way to pay for school after losing his scholarship. Nate (King) revisits old patterns, but with the help of her friends things could turn out differently. The pressure is on these students to take Black Excellence to new heights while still enduring the highs and lows and unsupervised sexuality of early adulthood.
The second season of All American: Homecoming averaged 0.11 in the 18-49 demographic and 366,000 viewers in the live+same day ratings (including all DVR viewing up to 3:00 AM). Compared to the first season, that's a drop of just 2% in the demo and a 6% drop in ratings. It is one of The CW's most-watched series. In the live+7 days ratings, the college drama gains nearly 70% more viewers in delayed viewers.
The CW also renewed Superman & Lois for a ten-episode fourth season, but canceled Gotham Knights, leaving Superman & Lois as the last remaining DC superhero series on the network. Walker and All American (2018) are the only other original CW scripts to return in 2023-24.
“We are thrilled to bring All American: Homecoming and Superman & Lois back to The CW,” said Brad Schwartz, President of Entertainment, The CW Network, in a statement. “These series are two of our strongest performers across our linear and digital platforms with some of the most passionate fanbases in all of television. We are grateful to our partners at Warner Bros. Television and Berlanti Productions for their continued collaboration, and we cannot wait to get started on the new seasons.”
