FOX Announces Premiere Dates for LA TO VEGAS and THE RESIDENT

FOX is announcing premiere dates for new series LA TO VEGAS (Jan. 2) and THE RESIDENT (Jan. 21, following NFC Championship Game, and Jan. 22, in its time period premiere).

The series stars Kim Matula ("UnREAL"), Ed Weeks ("The Mindy Project"), Nathan Lee Graham ("The Comeback," "Hitch") and Olivia Macklin ("The Young Pope") with Peter Stormare ("The Big Lebowski") and Emmy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner Dylan McDermott ("The Practice," "American Horror Story").
