The CW’s All American: Homecoming was originally announced to begin streaming on HBO Max June 22. The series never appeared on the streaming service. Today, the series has begin streaming on Netflix. The series joins its parent series All American which streams on Netflix as a part of the old deal the network made with the streamer. The two series are closely connected, so having them on the same service makes sense. All American continues to be one of the most popular titles on the streamer so the spinoff should attract more eyeballs this way. 

Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon: The Second Act will premiere on Toonami July 30 at 12:30 am. Lupin the Third: Part VI moves to 1:00 am and Naruto will air a single episode at 2:30 am with the new addition to the lineup.
