Host Ryan Seacrest and judges Jennifer Lopez, Keith Urban and Harry Connick Jr. will start their final search for the next "American Idol" with a special two-night, four-hour premiere event Wednesday, Jan. 6 (8-10 p.m.) and Thursday, Jan. 7 (8-10 p.m.).

New drama "Second Chance" (formerly known as "Lookinglass" and "The Frankenstein Code") will debut on Wednesday, Jan. 13 at 9 p.m. after the second week of "American Idol." The Tom Ellis-starrer "Lucifer" will premiere on Monday, Jan. 25 at 9 p.m.
