LOS ANGELES, Sept. 30 (UPI) — CBS says it has ordered an American version of the British alternative series Hunted.
The show challenges ordinary people to go on the run as highly skilled investigators and trackers pursue them in a nationwide manhunt.
“Hunted is a compelling new alternative series format, which our alternative department had been tracking for a while, that feels tailor-made for CBS,” Glenn Geller, president of CBS Entertainment, said in a statement Wednesday.
“It combines the suspense of a crime drama with the thrill of a competition reality series and some very topical social issues.”
The original format was created and produced by Shine TV. The new CBS series will be produced by Endemol Shine North America.
No host or premiere date have been announced yet.
