What is La Brea?
Similar to the 1970s TV seriesLand of the Lost(as well as the 1990s reboot), La Brea centers on a family that’s swallowed up when a sinkhole opens in the ground, and they find themselves in a strange and unfamiliar world on the other side. This sinkhole cracks open on La Brea Avenue in Los Angeles, near the famous La Brea tar pits (where a volcano erupted in the 1997 movieVolcano). Here’s the show’s official synopsis:
When a massive sinkhole mysteriously opens in Los Angeles, it tears the Harris family in half, separating mother and son Claire and Josh from father Gavin and daughter Izzy.
When Claire and Josh find themselves in an unexplainable primeval world, alongside a disparate group of strangers, they must work to survive and uncover the mystery of where they are and if there is a way back home.
