HITC highlights the All American season 5 episode 16 release date and promo after hiatus.
There are some shows you just can’t afford to miss and it can be pretty frustrating when you get settled down to tune into the latest installment, only to find that it’s mysteriously vanished from the schedule.
Fans of All American won’t be strangers to such disappointment, which is why it always pays to learn The CW schedule in advance.
Created by April Blair, the increasingly iconic US TV sports drama premiered on the network back in October 2018 while some have also discovered it thanks to Netflix, finding it to be a new favorite.
Drawing inspiration from real-life professional American football player Spencer Paysinger, Daniel Ezra commands the screen in the role and audiences were over the moon to welcome him and others back for season 5. However, the All American season 5 episode 16 release date will arrive later than anticipated.

All American season 5 episode 16 release date
All American season 5 episode 16 is scheduled to premiere on Monday, April 17th 2023 at 8 pm ET on The CW.
This installment follows on from United In Grief, which aired on Monday, March 27th, ushering in the beginning of a two-week hiatus; audiences have to wait two weeks longer than usual but there’s a three-week gap between episodes.
An official episode count for season 5 is yet to be announced, although we predict there will be roughly 20 in total.
As for the forthcoming episode, it has already been titled My Name Is and you can check out the All American season 5 episode 16 promo below:

‘We were so incredibly lucky’
As those who are up to date with All American will know, Taye Diggs (who plays Billy Baker) left the show earlier in the season and showrunner Nkechi Okoro Carroll addressed the big decision during an interview with Variety:
“I had a pretty good idea at the end of last season that that was where the season was going. We were so incredibly lucky to have Taye Diggs be part of this production from day one, so one of the things that we’d always talked about was, we have no idea of how long we would be able to hold on to him.”
She continued: “I mean, he’s Taye Diggs. So we were like, let’s always make sure we’re communicating with each other, and when it feels like it’s the right time, if we’re both feeling that way, we’ll have the conversation and figure out a really dope way to have him exit the show.”
All American season 5 episode 16 airs on Monday, April 17th 2023 at 8 pm ET on The CW.
