TONIGHT the Oprah Winfrey Network: OWN will premiere the eight-episode docu-series, "Released," which features intimate, first-person narratives of formerly incarcerated men and women as they walk out of the prison doors for the first time to restart their lives. The one-hour program airs at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
In the series premiere, former inmates Kevin, Kay and Jermaine complete their prison sentences and finally leave after serving decades behind bars. Some return to loving family and eager friends, but the overwhelming joy they feel dampens when faced with the challenges of adjusting to life in a changed world. Her sixth time out, Kay is now sober with a new attitude. Jermaine's daughter refuses to forgive him and Kevin makes the long trip home from San Quentin to Los Angeles.
