With a heart-pumping finale that saw young Isaiah (a.k.a Gavin) return to his rightful place in the future, fans are anxiously awaiting La Brea Season 2—which will continue to bend all the rules of space and time.
In an interview with TV Line series creator David Appelbaum revealed a few plot lines expected in the second season. First up, he addressed where Riley, Josh, and Lilly might have gone when they disappeared into the time-traveling crack of light in the finale.
“In Season 2 they will be in a different time period,” he said. “Their story will be outside of 10,000 B.C. That will be one of the fun things about Season 2, finding them in a world completely different from anything we’ve seen on the show so far.”
Appelbaum also revealed the mysterious tower Rebecca Aldridge (Ming-Zhu Hii) led Scott to has a significant role in Season 2. “We are going to explore this building and go into it at a certain point and see what’s inside. I think that’s going to be one of the fun things, really opening up this world that they are in,” he said. “We will find a lot of interesting things inside there, but I won’t say who or what.”
In celebration of the show’s next episode viewers can now watch five minutes of the premiere episode “The Next Day,” available on Peacock and NBC’s YouTube channel.
“The Next Day” – Desperate to reunite with her son, Eve follows a lead that brings her face-to-face with a ruthless prehistoric group. Gavin, Izzy and Ella question whether they’re fit to survive in 10,000 BC. Josh and Riley wake up in an unfamiliar time.
La Brea premieres this Tuesday, Sept. 27th at 9:00pm ET on NBC, streaming the following day on Peacock.
The show follows an epic family adventure after a massive sinkhole opens in Los Angeles pulling people and buildings into a mysterious and dangerous primeval land where they have no choice but to band together to survive. In season two, the Harris family remains separated as Eve is reeling from her son, Josh, having mistakenly gone through a portal to 1988.
