"Through six seasons, ALL AMERICAN remains a top-performer for The CW as the network's most-watched series across all linear and digital platforms. PENN & TELLER: FOOL US continues to be appointment television for families over a decade into its run. And we are thrilled to continue our partnership with THE CHOSEN and bring the latest season of this groundbreaking drama exclusively to broadcast audiences across the country."

ALL AMERICAN is currently airing its sixth season on The CW with the season finale slated to air on Monday, July 15 (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT). ALL AMERICAN is from Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Studios, with executive producers Nkechi Okoro Carroll ("Found," "Rosewood," "The Resident"), Greg Berlanti ("Found," "The Flash," "You"), Sarah Schechter ("Riverdale," "Dead Boy Detectives," "The Flight Attendant"), Jameal Turner ("Rosewood"), Mike Herro ("One Tree Hill"), and David Strauss ("American Woman").

PENN & TELLER: FOOL US is a one-hour competition series celebrating magic and featuring the legendary duo Penn & Teller. On each episode of PENN & TELLER: FOOL US, aspiring magicians are invited to perform their best trick to try and fool the world-famous team of Penn & Teller. Anyone who succeeds wins the right to perform with Penn & Teller in their celebrated show at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. The remote studio audience and the TV audience watch along with Penn & Teller as they try to figure out the secrets. Penn & Teller see the trick only once and have to immediately try to work it out. The studio audience knows there are no camera tricks, secret edits or helpful camera cuts. This is all real magic.

PENN & TELLER: FOOL US is created and executive produced by Penn Jillette, Teller, Peter Adam Golden ("Penn & Teller: BS"), Andrew Golder ("Win Ben Stein's Money") and Lincoln Hiatt ("Solitary," "Unan1mous"), in association with 1/17 PRODUCTIONS and September Films (part of DCD Media).

THE CHOSEN is the first multi-season series of its kind, a groundbreaking historical drama about the life of Jesus (Jonathan Roumie) as seen through the eyes of His followers. Set against the backdrop of Jewish oppression in first-century Israel, the seven-season show shares an authentic and intimate look at Jesus' revolutionary life and teachings. Clashing kingdoms. Rival rulers. In season four of THE CHOSEN, the enemies of Jesus close in while His followers struggle to keep up, leaving Him to carry the burden alone. Threatened by the reality of Jesus' growing influence, religious leaders do the unthinkable - ally with their Roman oppressors. As the seeds of betrayal are planted and opposition to Jesus' message turns violent, He's left with no alternative but to demand His followers RISE UP.

An independent production written, directed and produced by Dallas Jenkins, THE CHOSEN is distributed globally by Lionsgate.
