Alcatraz air date and synopsis

I don’t know if everyone knew when J.J. Abrams’ next television show,  “Alcatraz”, was going to air. I know that I posted a trailer for it back in May (“Alcatraz” trailer) but we didn’t know exactly when it was going to start.

 

I am happy to announce that it will begin on Monday, January 16th with a two hour special! I know I’ll be watching, I’m just hoping that it is as good as “Fringe” and as interesting as “Lost”; “Alcatraz” does have some huge shoes to fill…

Below is the synopsis from Coming Soon:

J.J. Abrams’ (“Super 8,” “Star Trek,” “Lost”) chilling new thriller ALCATRAZ will debut Monday, Jan. 16 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) with a special two-hour premiere event. The series then makes its time period premiere on Monday, Jan. 23 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), following all-new episodes of HOUSE (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT). The mysterious drama stars Sarah Jones (“Sons of Anarchy”), Jorge Garcia (“Lost”) and Sam Neill (“Jurassic Park”) as a unique team investigating the shocking reappearance of Alcatraz’s most notorious prisoners, 50 years after they vanished.
