Suspect Everything.
Features: DVD, Widescreen, Dolby Digital (5.1)
NBC's Kidnapped is a high-stakes serialized thriller in which the teenaged son of a wealthy Upper East Side family is kidnapped and everyone is a suspect. The series focuses on the elaborate, triangulated game between the kidnappers, FBI and law enforcement, and the private negotiating team contracted by this perhaps not-so-picture-perfect family.On a rainy New York morning, the idyllic existence of Conrad Cain (Oscar winner Timothy Hutton, Ordinary People, Kinsey), a self-made millionaire with a long list of enemies, and his well-to-do wife Ellie (Emmy Award winner Dana Delany, China Beach) is torn apart when their 15-year-old son Leopold (Will Denton, Palindromes), a smart but quirky kid whose innocence makes him the perfect target, is kidnapped on his way to school. The boy's bodyguard Virgil (Mykelti Williamson, Boomtown), the boy's first line of defense even after the kidnapping, is left to die. Desperate to find his son while keeping his skeletons hidden, Cain enlists the services of Knapp (Jeremy Sisto, Six Feet Under, Thirteen), a professional investigator who works outside the law's strict rulebook to retrieve kidnapping victims and guide families through the grueling process, and Turner (Carmen Ejogo, Lackawanna Blues), his able partner and right hand. Operating opposite Knapp and his team are Special Agent Latimer King (Delroy Lindo, The Core), an experienced FBI agent who postpones his retirement due to a vested interest in this complicated case, as well as King's colleague and antithesis, Agent Andy Archer (Linus Roache, Batman Begins), who only knows how to play by the rules. This three disc collection includes all 13 episodes of Kidnapped!
"...an all-star cast that could be featured in any film..." Peter Brown, If Magazine
Editor's Note
With its silver-screen-worthy cast and an intriguing premise, this thrilling drama surprisingly lasted for less than a season on air. But fans of KIDNAPPED can catch each of the series' 13 episodes here, including the show's finale. When their teenage son is kidnapped and his bodyguard (Mykelti Williamson) is left for dead, the Cains (Timothy Hutton and Dana Delaney) go beyond the law to rescue their son. They call upon Knapp (Jeremy Sisto), an expert in kidnapping and helping the victims' families. Two FBI agents join the desperate search as everyone tries to save the Cains' son. KIDNAPPED also stars Delroy Lindo, Linus Roach, and Carmen Ejogo.
