The CW axe has swung on yet another of its original shows: It has been announced that the HBCU-set All American: Homecoming will be ending after its upcoming third season. That means that the original All American will be the only CW show from before the Nexstar takeover that will still have episodes being filmed. (Superman & Lois has a season left to air as well this Fall; The CW has announced that it, too will be the last.)
“I’m devastated to learn that ALL AMERICAN: HOMECOMING will not be moving forward with more episodes and that this new season premiering in July will be our final one,” showrunner Nkechi Okoro-Carroll said in a statement. “However, I am so very grateful to have worked with this incredible cast and crew, led by Geffri Maya, to bring the authentic HBCU experience to your screens for the last three seasons. We made this show for the culture and thank our loyal audience and fans for taking this ride with us. We made this show so that our community, our kids (and their dreams), could be seen and celebrated every week and we are proud to say we accomplished that mission… Especially with this exciting final season which we can’t wait to show you all. So with a heavy but proud heart, I give one final shoutout to our favorite BRINGSTON LIONS!”
“We want to thank the cast, crew, producers, NK, Marqui and everybody at Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television for their hard work and dedication in telling these important stories for three incredible seasons,” The CW Network added in a statement. “The upcoming final season is the best yet and we cannot wait to share it with fans beginning on Monday, July 8.”
