Written and created by the award-winning American television writer and producer Frank Spotnitz (The X-Files, Strike Back), Hunted is an original eight-part suspense thriller set in the world of international espionage, produced by Kudos Film & Television (Spooks, Life On Mars), in association with Big Light Productions, for BBC One and HBO?s Cinemax channel.

At the heart of the drama is Sam played by Melissa George (The Slap, In Treatment), a highly skilled operative for an elite private intelligence firm who survives an attempt on her life that may have been orchestrated by members of her own team. Once she returns to the firm, she performs her secretive duties without knowing who to trust and who wants her dead.

Adam Rayner (Hawthorne, Mistresses) plays Sam?s colleague at the firm and love interest. The dedicated and complex members of the firm operate in the shadows, must often confront life and death situations on secret missions and are sometimes unaware of who or what they are fighting for.

Additional cast includes Stephen Dillane (Game Of Thrones), Morven Christie (The Sinking Of The Laconia) Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Lost, Strike Back), Lex Shrapnel (Captain America: The First Avenger), Uriel Emil (Criminal Justice), Patrick Malahide (Five Days, Billy Elliot), Stephen Campbell Moore (The Bank Job, History Boys) and Oscar Kennedy (Toast).

WTF BBC killed it? I know it's been playing on cinemax but whats the deal with HBO saving it? It's such a well done show.

ratings for it over here in the UK have been awful so BBC pulled the plug but HBO who part owns Cinemax rescued it

This is probably the most interesting TV series worth while watching on TV :woot: :yes: :yes: .....it's like a realistic James Bond except Bond is a hot spy chick Melissa George....the storyline is amazing and full of twists & turns. Finally a true spy thriller....I hope they keep the British MI6 type theme going since BBC (morons) is dropping the show and the American channel Cinemax continues with season 2...and it doesn't get away from the original writers story....doesn't get all Mission Impossiblish etc....I think Brits spy shows have a more realistic feel to them rather than another shoot'em up/killing spree with no story/plot.

I love this show...

      Finally some article that flips the script on the rage baiting, click baiting and hate mongering by Neowin in recent years. It works for you as a website, but it's completely wrong when considering real usage. Yes, it works just fine if you install it on unsupported machines with Rufus or Ventoy, no downsides.

      0 chance of that happening, forget it. Get it installed by some tech guy or do it yourself with the bypasses, that's how MS is being lenient and looking the other way to give users a chance.
