The team that brought you ''Series/TinMan'', a ''loose reimagining'' of ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'', takes on ''Literature/AliceInWonderland'', saturated with DarkerAndEdgier and RuleOfCool. When martial arts instructor Alice Hamilton ([[Series/PrivatePractice Caterina Scorsone]]) sees her boyfriend, Jack Chase, being taken away by some mysterious men in a white van, she chases one of them Literature/ThroughTheLookingGlass... and into a CrapsackWorld. Guided by Hatter ([[Series/{{Primeval}} Andrew-Lee Potts]]) and The White Knight ([[Series/MaxHeadroom Matt Frewer]]), Alice goes looking for Jack, but discovers that things aren't all that wonderful in Wonderland.
