Joe Sandoval (John Ortiz) owns a large winery called Heritage House Vineyard in California's Sonoma Valley. The conflict that kicks off the new series Promised Land begins with Joe wanting to hand down the business to a relative. The question is: Who should Joe choose to shoulder the family legacy, and what will they do to nab the title? What's more, what will happen when his ex-wife returns to claim what might actually be rightfully hers?

Meanwhile, just a few hundred miles south but a world away, three immigrants cross the border from Mexico in search of a better life. But what Joe and his family don't realize is that they may have plans to take over the winery for themselves.

'Promised Land' release schedule: Where and when to watch

The premiere of Promised Land, titled "A Place Called Heritage," drops on Jan. 24 at 10 p.m. EST on ABC, following The Bachelor. The series will air Mondays in this same timeslot, with Episodes 2 and 3 confirmed for Jan. 31 and Feb. 7.

That said, fans who get hooked on the show straight out of the gate won't have to wait a week in between the first and second episodes. Episode 2, "La Madrugada (Day Break)," will have a special early debut on Hulu on Tuesday, Jan. 25.

Of course, throughout the season, Hulu will also have all new episodes available to stream the next day for anyone who can't catch the show live. We're assuming both ABC and Hulu are expecting big viewership as the show's already been generating a ton of hype ahead of its premiere. In fact, the trailer alone has garnered nearly 3.7 million views!

With all of the juicy drama that's sure to be served up, we're hoping for a season of at least 10 episodes, though an exact number has yet to be confirmed by ABC. We will say that if the network keeps up with the trend of some of the other dramas they've premiered in recent years, we may even have a first season of closer to 20 episodes. (Fingers crossed!)
