A Riveting Show Premiere, creating the need for more!

Last night was the primiere of 'Alcatraz' the show has a mix of all star cast and a few unknowns.

'Alcatraz' is a mixture of history meets paranormal it stars  Sam Neill, Sarah Jones, Jorge Garcia and Parminder Nagra. The show takes place in modern time, but flashes back to the early sixties when the prison was shut down. Police woman Rebecca Madson (Jones) finds herself in the middle of a mystery about a number of prisoners who never made it back to the mainland and the cover up that took place. She finds Dr. Diego Soto (Garcia), who knows all about the history of the prison and teams up with him to solve the murder of the former head of Alcatraz.

The 2 hour Show primere this past Monday Night was highly entertaining creating the need to see who else they will bring up from the dead from the '63' The story line interests me as you have no idea how this is all taking place with the answers remaining a secret. 

J.J. Abrams the producer of such shows as Lost, Fringe and Person of Interest worked well with creators of the show Elizabeth Sarnoff, Steven Lilien, Bryan Wynbrandt and directed by not just one but three, Brad Anderson, Jack Bender and Danny Cannon. 

This Action, Mystery, Thriller will definetly be the newest hit on the television line up of 'Must watch Shows' of 2012! I certainly can't wait till Monday at 9 to watch Episode 3 I know that much! 

Don't miss the 2-hour Series Premiere of ALCATRAZ on MON 1/16 at 8/7c, on FOX!

OK...Love Jorge, Like (usually love) Sam Neil, Sara Jones cute and probably a great actress but come on this is not her role. She looks 15 and is just not right for the tough guy part (Kate from Lost, sure; but this child, no)! That being said whoever played the part...there is NO WAY they grew up in San Fran and became a detective being told that their gramps was a guard that they didn't research or have it thrown in their face that he was an inmate, just would not happen. This show has some great potential but so far same ole tricks that they gave us before. Lucy never aging, Richard in drag? 63's, oh come on did you really need NUMBERS again? Mysterious hole in the woods remind you of anything? PLEASE PRETTY PLEASE start giving these characters some character, that's what made Lost so great. You could buy into the people if not the premise. I intend to keep watching, hoping that this doesn't just fizzle with a bunch of uninspired "twists" and "tricks
Thumbs Up Thumbs Down
