Runaway premiered on CW on September 25, 2006. The Raders look like a normal middle-class American family, with a dad, Paul Rader, his lovely wife Lily, teenagers Henry and Hannah and 8-year-old Tommy. Those are their real names, but as they struggle to blend into a new life in Bridgewater, Iowa, they are all using secret identities. The family is on the run, hiding from the legal system that unjustly convicted Paul Rader of a terrible and violent crime.
