Following organizational changes at The CW, fans can now mark their calendars for the premiere of several beloved series, including All American.
On Thursday, during the Television Critics Association winter press tour, it was confirmed that All American will launch its sixth season on Monday, April 1 at 8/7c. Alongside it, Walker is set to begin its fourth season on Wednesday, April 3 at 8 pm. The schedule also includes the introduction of the new crime drama Sight Unseen, headlined by Daniel Gillies of The Originals fame, premiering right after Walker at 9 pm.
Some anticipated information was left out; specific premiere dates for All American: Homecoming and the final season of Superman & Lois were not provided.
The CW’s reality slate also sees new additions with premiere dates announced for FBoy Island spinoff Lovers and Liars (April 1), and a new dating show Patti Stanger: The Matchmaker (April 11). Furthermore, sports documentary series 100 Days to Indy will return for a second season on April 26. Closing out the month are the premieres of two law enforcement-centric shows, Police 24/7 and Hostage Rescue, scheduled for April 30.

The releases come after Nexstar Media Group’s acquisition of the network, which led to a programming revamp focused on sports, international series, and syndicated content. Of the various original series, only Walker, All American, All American: Homecoming, and Superman & Lois were renewed for new seasons, though with the possibility of shorter runs due to industry strikes and the network’s shift in focus.
While Walker has been slated for a 13-episode fourth season shorter than its predecessors, All American also secured a 13-episode order for its sixth season, concluding its fifth season with a suspenseful cliffhanger.
