The CW Network will begin rolling out its new midseason schedule with series debuts and season premieres throughout the winter and into the spring, including the new dramas Naomi and All American: Homecoming, and the return of The CW's hit series Superman & Lois and Kung Fu. Midseason comes early with all of the devilishly delicious drama wrapped in a holiday bow as Dynasty returns for its new season on Monday, December 20 with back-to-back original episodes (8:00-9:00pm and 9:00-10:00pm ET/PT) until it returns in March for the rest of the season (more on that below). The Kent family returns for their second season on Superman & Lois on Tuesdays starting January 11, 2022 (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT), followed by the premiere of The CW's newest superhero series, Naomi (9:00-10:00pm ET/PT). Two Sentence Horror Stories debuts its season three with back-to-back episodes on Sunday, January 16 (9:00-9:30pm ET/PT and 9:30-10:00pm ET/PT) following The CW's reimagining of the beloved competition series Legends of the Hidden Temple (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT).

Following their epic five-episode events this fall, both Riverdale and The Flash will return in March on brand new nights. Riverdale will make the move to Sundays, starting on March 6 (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT), while The Flash will race over to Wednesdays, returning on March 9 (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT) followed by the second season premiere of The CW's action-packed hit series Kung Fu (9:00-10:00pm ET/PT). On Friday, March 11, Charmed (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT) will continue to conjure up its beguiling magic with its season four debut followed by the return of original episodes of Dynasty (9:00-10:00pm ET/PT).

Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton and Jane Fonda

Yes, it's finally happening. Dolly Parton will appear in the seventh and final season of Grace and Frankie. Details on her character are being kept under wraps, though, as no further character or plot details are available at this time. The first four episodes of Season 7 are available to stream now on Netflix. The final 12 episodes of Season 7 (and the series) will premiere in 2022. Production on the record-breaking series wrapped earlier this week. It was previously announced that with Season 7's final 16-episode order, Grace and Frankie, produced by Skydance Television, will make history as the longest-running Netflix original series ever, out of both comedy and drama, with 94 episodes. Grace and Frankie stars Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Sam Waterston, Martin Sheen, June Diane Raphael, Brooklyn Decker, Baron Vaughn, Ethan Embry, and Peter Gallagher, who all reprise their roles in the seventh and final season.
