By Mads Lennon
All American fans, get excited! The CW has ordered more episodes for its sophomore drama after a strong return. Find out how many we’re getting in total!
All American just returned this past Monday for its second season and The CW is already ordering more episodes for the show! During the show’s first season, the episode count was increased to 16 episodes in total after steady ratings.
Thanks to a strong return on Monday, TVLine reports that The CW has decided to bump up its initial 13-episode order for Season 2 up to 16 episodes once more!
The ratings bump comes after the series had a successful run on Netflix this summer. It trended several times on social media since it became available for people to binge-watch. On Monday night the series returned a full 20 percent higher than its previous season-high.

Those are pretty impressive numbers, especially because All American was one of The CW’s lesser-watched series last season.
The Season 2 premiere answered several questions for us already but also introduced some new mysteries.
We know that Spencer is still grappling with the decision of whether or not he should return to Crenshaw to play for Cory or remain in Beverly, and Dillon’s paternity is still a question mark thanks to a mutual decision by Cory and Grace.
Monday’s episode also introduced two new characters, the daughter of a successful booster named Rochelle, and a mysterious teen who arrives to live with Cory in the final scene.
Make sure you watch the episode if you haven’t yet! It’s currently available to stream on The CW’s official app and their website. You won’t want to miss a second of this season.
