Storyline

The Raders look like a normal middle-class American family, with a dad, Paul Rader, his lovely wife Lily, teenagers Henry and Hannah and 8-year-old Tommy. Those are their real names, but as they struggle to blend into a new life in Bridgewater, Iowa, they are all using secret identities. This family is on the run, hiding from the legal system that unjustly convicted Paul Rader of a terrible and violent crime. Adding to the danger, the real killer is now threatening the lives of the Rader children. As Paul works to protect his loved ones and uncover the evidence that will clear him, he lives with the daily fear that someone will accidentally reveal the family's dark secret.

Runaway on the CW

The best show this season on the CW, follows the same style as the content filled dramas that the WB was famous for such as Dawson's Creek, Roswell, Felicity etc. Very worthy of continuing for a full season. The pilot grabbed my attention, and kept me glued to my seat throughout the entire hour. All of the characters were well developed, and the script appeared very genuine and real. The series also seems to be a nice, original, break from the prime time norm, dealing with a plot that is not so common. It appeases to those who would enjoy a mystery style plot. It is not high on action content, the dialog and storyline rather are what what make this storyline so long. Probably its only weakness is its time slot.
