Based on author Justin Cronin's trilogy of the same name, "The Passage" is a character-driven action drama that focuses on Project Noah, a secret medical facility where scientists experiment with a dangerous virus that could lead to the cure for all disease -- but it also could potentially wipe out the human race. When a young girl is chosen to be a test subject, a federal agent is tasked with bringing her in, but he becomes her surrogate father, determined to protect her at any cost -- even as Project Noah's work threatens to unleash an unimaginable apocalypse.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Strong performances from leads Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Saniyya Sidney can't course correct The Passage's wayward plot and feeble tone.

Fox's show sets itself apart by being less negative and relentless than "The Walking Dead." Go to Full Review Alison Herman The Ringer 01/16/2019
The Passage is a cautionary tale about forcing an unnatural match between organism and host. It's instructive, if not for the reasons its creators think. Go to Full Review Lucy Mangan Guardian 01/16/2019

mccraejoey82 T @RT54386048 Sep 14 Show was really good I'm really upset it was canceled See more Dre T @RT61735249 12/04/2024 I dropped this show on episode two because what the actual fvvk. I don't know who makes these decisions but who though writing in stupid characters to move a plot along was a ever a good idea. People should really stop watching trash shows because Hollywood will keep pumping them out if they still make money off of bad writing. See more Kelly D @Naptowngirl 10/01/2019 Hoping another network gives this show the chance it deserves. I was a fan of the books first so knew I wanted to watch. See more 09/09/2019 My daughter and I really liked this show. Why was it cancelled? Wah! See more 08/12/2019 I'm very critical of shows like this, but this show is phenomenal and definitely worth the watch. The show captivated me from the beginning and only became more interesting with each episode. Not sure why it was cancelled. Hopefully another channel picks it up. See more 07/08/2019 WHY cancel this show now? Last season just set the show up to be an action packed show. The last scene proved that. Why not give this show another season to prove itself?
