The CW has made big changes to its scripted lineup, but All American fans can look forward to season 6 this month. After viewers last saw Patience drop to the floor, bleeding from a stab wound, her fate will be top of mind when the show returns. Will her stalker be stopped once and for all? Will those who love Billy Baker truly catch a break and get to grieve his death in peace? 

Season 5 wasn't all doom and gloom, however. Spencer and Olivia planned to try a long-distance romance, and fans will see how Olivia's time in London affects their future. Meanwhile, Jaymee and Asher found out they're having a boy. Also on the love front: Layla and Jordan are engaged, but time will tell if the super-young lovebirds make it down the aisle. 

Heading into the new season, Spencer and Jordan have hopes about the NFL draft, and the rest of the crew are weathering their own challenges -- and helping each other through them. Here's how to stream season 6 of All American without a cable or satellite subscription.
