A drama where prisoners who mysteriously vanished from Alcatraz decades ago reappear in the present.


Rebecca is a San Francisco police detective who discovers that a fingerprint found on a homicide victim belongs to a former Alcatraz prisoner who died decades in the past.

When she runs into resistance looking into her discovery, Rebecca turns to an expert on Alcatraz prison to help her piece together the mystery that is slowly unraveling.

Their investigation reveals that the prisoner in question is actually still alive and loose on the streets of San Francisco. What's more, is that he may not be the only prisoner from Alcatraz to reappear in the present.

Finally a show with a great plotline and amazing acting! So, of course, it must be cancelled! Keep the moronic/pedophile-pleasing "Glee" and "The X-Factor" and cancel "Alcatraz." I guess that's supposed to make sense to the idiots in the board room at Fox.

I have posted on this site previously regarding the cancellation of this great show and two things come to mind today. First of all, today is the Blu-ray release date for the first, final and only season of this great show. Secondly; with all the 231 comments and counting from those who love this show; are our concerns being sent to the executives at FOX television? I certainly hope so as the people seem to have spoken; lets just hope their comments are not left on deaf ears and FOX wakes up and gives this show another chance to gain momentum and live to see another day!
