‘All American’ Boss on Why She Hit Reset for Season 7, Plans to Bring Back ‘Almost Every Member of the Vortex’ for Cameos


Nkechi Okoro Carroll talks resetting "All American" for Season 7, new storylines and cameos by OGs.

“She talked about how the show changed her life, and how she originally dropped out of college because of stuff going on with her family, and didn’t feel like her dreams were worth pursuing. “I called the studio and network and shared my vision, and that is how we ended up getting those two additional episodes for Season 6, to really fully complete the journey of the characters and give me some room to start to set up that world.” While Ezra, Samantha Logan (Olivia), Cody Christian (Asher), Karimah Westbrook (Grace James), Monét Mazur (Laura Baker) and Chelsea Tavares (Patience) exited at the end of Season 6 as series regulars, that doesn’t mean they’re gone for good.
