Netflix has recently released the highly anticipated seventh season of its acclaimed sports drama, “All American,” which has captivated audiences since it first aired. Originally launched on The CW in 2018, the series gained significant popularity after its addition to streaming platforms, developing a loyal fan base.
The latest installment shifts the focus to the characters as adults, particularly spotlighting Jordan (played by Michael Evans Behling) and Layla (Greta Onieogou), who are now married and navigating the complexities of adulthood while still supporting young teens from Beverly Hills and Crenshaw as they cope with life and football.
The storyline is inspired by the life of professional football player Spencer Paysinger, with Daniel Ezra portraying Spencer James, a gifted high school athlete from South Los Angeles who is recruited to play for Beverly Hills High. As Spencer faces the challenges of adapting to a new environment, he also deals with living under the watch of his coach, Billy Baker, played by Taye Diggs.
Fans have expressed their enthusiasm and loyalty to “All American,” with one viewer noting how quickly the show drew them in, stating, “I thought this series was going to be another high school football cliché, but it really grew on me after just the first episode.” Others have praised the character depth and the show’s ability to blend various narratives, affirming its standing as a must-watch series.
The reception for season seven has been overwhelmingly positive, with viewers eager to immerse themselves in the unfolding drama. If you haven’t seen it yet, the entire season is now available for streaming on Netflix, inviting both new viewers and longtime fans to binge-watch and enjoy the journey of these beloved characters.
