Houdini & Doyle premieres May 2

We finally have a premiere date for the new Houdini & Doyle TV series! The pilot episode will air simultaneously on FOX in the U.S. and Global TV in Canada on Monday, May 2 at 9:00 PM ET/PT. The 10 episode series will then air each Monday at the same time.

Houdini & Doyle will also air on ITV Encore in the UK. Now word yet on whether ITV will premiere the series on May 2, but the pilot will have a special ITV screening in London on February 29, so it's possible the UK might get the series early.

UPDATE: Viewers in Canada will be interested in this: 'Houdini & Doyle: World of Wonders' original digital series announced.
