The CW's 'Naomi' is nine episodes in, and already has fans at the edge of their seats. While Season 1 goes briefly on hiatus, there has certainly been a lot of hype and curiosity around the series. 

From what we know so far, the superhero series is neither renewed nor canceled. Season 1 ended on a cliffhanger -- with Naomi finally confronting the big bad, Brutus, and also uncovering the truth behind her parents' death. With broken trust being a running theme, Naomi uncovers some harsh truths, the most severe one being that Greg and Jen aren't who they seem. Left without a solution and a new mission, Season 1 certainly sets up conflict and drama for Season 2.

What is 'Naomi' all about?

The premise is focused on Naomi McDuffie (Kaci Walfall), and a rounder student, whose life changes forever after a Superman "stunt" takes place in her hometown. Her overly protective Greg and Jennifer McDuffie (Barry Watson and Mouzam Makkar) are alarmed when Naomi has frequent fainting spells. The teen's BFFs, Annabelle (Mary-Charles Jones), Nathan (Anthony Puig), Lourdes (Camila Moreno), Anthony (Will Meyers), and Jacob (Aidan Gemme) help Naomi dig into the truth behind the unexpected event, and the toll it's taken on her.
