‘Superman & Lois’ and ‘All American: Homecoming’ Renewed for 2023-2024 Season

The CW’s answered a few lingering questions regarding their 2023-2024 primetime lineup, officially confirming Superman & Lois has been renewed for season four and All American: Homecoming earned a third season order. Both dramas could have gone either way as The CW trims down its roster following its acquisition by Nexstar.

While Superman & Lois and All American: Homecoming fans have reason to celebrate, the news isn’t so bright for Gotham Knights viewers. Gotham Knights did not escape the network’s chopping block and will not return for season two.

“We are thrilled to bring All American: Homecoming and Superman & Lois back to The CW,” stated Brad Schwartz, President of Entertainment, The CW Network. “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.”

Superman & Lois, starring Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch, will return with a 10-episode fourth season. All American: Homecoming received a 13-episode order.

The network, once known for its primetime lineup loaded with comic book-inspired dramas, is moving into the 2023-2024 primetime season with a dramatically decreased roster. All American, Walker, Superman and Lois, and All American: Homecoming are all safe, but gone are Kung Fu, and The Winchesters, Walker: Independence. The Flash, Nancy Drew, and Riverdale also ended their runs with the current broadcast season.

All American: Homecoming Plot: The series is a young adult sports drama set against the backdrop of the HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) experience at Bringston University, where Black excellence is a way of life. The series is centered around tennis player Simone Hicks (Geffri Maya), baseball prodigy Damon Sims (Peyton Alex Smith), and the diverse group of friends they have cultivated at Bringston University.

Superman & Lois Plot: In Superman & Lois, after years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race, the world’s most famous superhero, The Man of Steel aka Clark Kent (Hoechlin) and comic books’ most famous journalist, Lois Lane (Tulloch), come face to face with one of their greatest challenges ever — dealing with all the stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today’s society.
