SoHo will premiere US drama Allegiance later this month.

Featuring Hope Davis, the series is an American adaptation of the Israeli spy drama series The Gordin Cell.

The series premiered in the US in February but moved online after 5 episodes.

This high octane thriller revolves around the O’Connor family and their son, Alex, a young idealistic CIA analyst specialising in Russian affairs. Unbeknownst to him, both of his parents and his sister are part of a dormant Russian sleeper cell that has just been reactivated. Years ago, Russian born Katya was tasked by the KGB to recruit American businessman Mark O’Connor as a spy, and the two fell in love. A deal was struck: As long as Katya remained an asset for Russia, she would be allowed to marry Mark and move to America.

After years in America building a happy life and without word from Moscow, they thought they had escaped. Now it seems that the new Mother Russia has one more mission — turning Alex into a spy. The SVR has reenlisted the entire family into service as they plan a terrorist operation inside the U.S. border that will bring America to its knees. For these anguished parents, the choice is clear: betray their country… or risk their family.

Tuesdays from June 30 at 8.30pm on SoHo.

  1. From epguides.com (a great site): “The series was canceled after 5 episodes, but filming continued and the remaining episodes were released online at nbc.com.”
    There were 13 episodes.

  2. Show had potential, enjoyed the first 2 eps. Then it got cancelled so i stopped watching. I can’t watch or enjoy a show if know it has been canned.

    1. article says it moved online…David could you advise did it move online (like you said) or was it cancelled early on…can’t imagine SoHo would bother if it was cancelled early on.
