The CW was the second of the big five networks to set midseason 2022 premiere dates. We know when Naomi will premiere and more.

We’re starting to see networks announce their midseason schedules. The CW was the first, bringing us return dates for a few favorites and premieres for new shows and potential new favorites.

There are a few changes coming to the schedule. Part of this is due to the pandemic. We saw fall start a little later than expected, and then not everything on the list of usual suspects return. Not all the shows will return in the midseason, with them being held to the spring due to filming delays.

There are some new shows coming in January 2022. Look out for Naomi, which is going to initially premiere on Tuesdays but will then move to Mondays. When All American Season 4 returns after its winter break, it’ll be followed by new show All American: Homecoming. It certainly makes sense to put the spin-off with its parent show.
