Looking for Alaska thrusts us into the perspective of Miles "Pudge" Halter who is done with his safe life at home. His whole life has been one big non-event, and his obsession with famous last words has only made him crave "the Great Perhaps" even more (Francois Rabelais, poet). He heads off to the sometimes crazy and anything-but-boring world of Culver Creek Boarding School, and his life becomes the opposite of safe. Because down the hall is Alaska Young. The gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, self-destructive, screwed up, and utterly fascinating Alaska Young. She is an event unto herself. She pulls Pudge into her world, launches him into the Great Perhaps, and steals his heart. Then. . . After. Nothing is ever the same.

The show is set in the fictional small town of Granite Flats, Colorado outside of a U.S. Army Military Base & VA Hospital in the early 1960's during the Cold War (post Korean War), and follows several of the town's citizens as mysterious and potentially dangerous circumstances arise. Mystery, suspense, humor & family conflict - this show has it all & surprisingly appeals to young & old. The show producers & writers wanted to create a show that the entire family could watch together & any age group would find worthy of their time.
