Romantic Drama Series "Alice & Jack" Will Fill The "Normal People" Void In Your Life

Whether we can chalk it up to John Green's The Fault in our Stars, or a Jane Austen obsession, I will never say no to a new TV show, especially if it features a devastatingly beautiful romance. That's why when I saw the trailer for Alice & Jack, I immediately sent it to my whole team. After all, you can never go wrong with a PBS Masterpiece show! At first glance, the series feels very reminiscent of Sally Rooney's Normal People, so I did a deep dive for everything you need to know about the new show.

Alice & Jack will premiere on Masterpiece on PBS Sunday, March 17, 2024 at 10 pm EST and 9 pm CST. Each episode will be an hour long, and if you ask me, it sounds like the perfect series to curl up in bed with.

How many episodes of Alice & Jack are there?

Alice & Jack will have six episodes total! After the premiere on March 17, you'll be able to watch an episode weekly until the finale on April 21. Short limited series are always both a good and bad thing in my mind — it doesn't take you as long to get to the end of the series, but once you're done, it feels like it went by too fast!
