The parts of All American that I liked best almost all featured Spencer and Coop, because Ezra and Bre-Z are so good and theirs is the dynamic that doesn't feel like a refugee from something I liked previously and more.

This young adult saga is still filled with fun, and not just because it turns fictional high school football into riveting high drama... If any new series deserves a spotlight in its metaphorical face, it's All American.
October 08, 2018
All American is a rookie show with real promise.
October 09, 2018
So yes, you've seen All American before, but despite its cliches, the first three episodes The CW sent to us in advance deem All American an engrossing, timely and relevant high school drama with loads of potential.

Though All American relies on some standard teen soap tropes... the show also strives to deliver more ambitious storytelling.

The CW's first high school football series literally is better built in terms of strutting its stuff in the locker room and at the beach. Perhaps the drama will also flex harder in time.

All American really fails to engage above the Barbie Dream House level.
October 07, 2018
It's not so much about high-school football as it is about race and class and economic opportunity - mixed with plenty of solid drama and, yeah, some good soap opera.

It's all pretty schematic in the premiere, but I'm hoping more subtlety will creep in going forward.
October 10, 2018
The lighter (meaning soapier) material is landing better than the more serious stuff, but that could change once the cast is clicking and the exposition is done.
