The CW has just unveiled its new midseason schedule, which not only features the return of such shows as Superman & Lois and Charmed, but also unveils the debut of new superhero series Naomi.  

Superman & Lois returns for a sophomore season starting Tuesday, Jan. 11 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, with new episodes airing every Tuesday. The enormously popular Supergirl spinoff will lead into Naomi, the network’s newest Arrowverse series from executive producers Ava DuVernay and Jill Blankenship.

Based on the limited comic book series from Brian Michael Bendis, David F. Walker, and Jamal Campbell, Naomi centers on an adopted teenager (Kaci Walfall) who discovers she has superpowers after a supernatural event shakes her hometown. The supporting cast includes Mary-Charles Jones as Naomi’s best friend Annabelle, Barry Watson and Mouzam Makkar as her loving adoptive parents, and Alexander Wraith as Dee, a tattoo shop owner who becomes Naomi’s reluctant mentor. Naomi debuts Tuesday, Jan. 11 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Riverdale and The Flash will return in March on new nights. Starting March 6, Riverdale will move to Sundays at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Meanwhile, The Flash jets over to Wednesdays starting March 9 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, followed by the Season 2 premiere of Kung Fu at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.
