Hooten & The Lady is headed across the pond. According to The Hollywood Reporter, The CW has acquired the Sky One TV series.
The UK drama “follows the escapades of American maverick adventurer and treasure hunter Hooten, played by Michael Landes (CSI, Love Soup), and a British historical expert, Lady Alexandra, portrayed by Ophelia Lovibond (Elementary).” Jane Seymour, Jessica Hynes, and Shaun Parkes also star.
The deal with The CW is the first of its kind for Sky. The UK network’s director of sales, Leona Connell, said:
Here at Sky Vision we’re delighted that The CW will be the home of Hooten & the Lady in the U.S., we believe this high-octane adventure drama is a perfect fit for the network. The series was a huge hit with the Sky 1 audience in the U.K., and we hope viewers of The CW will love it just as much.”
The CW has not announced yet when season one of Hooten & The Lady will air in the U.S. Season one of the series finished airing in the UK last November.
What do you think? Have you seen Hooten & The Lady? Are you glad it’s coming to The CW?
Great series it’s really just chewing gum for the couch! Don’t really need to do to much thinking it’s just entertainment with a touch of humour!! Makes you laugh out loud!! Much needed
I like it!
It’s fun, charming, cute, entertaing, not too deep but not vapid.
This is one of very few shows (like two) to grab and keep me.
I don’t even mind falling prey to the little ‘devices’ … like the
Sam-&-Diane dynamic, the Indy Jones meets Strider-style guy
(you know: Aragorn, man of mystery), or the phenomenally
cute and spunky, sweet’n’sassy little girl-next-door beguiler
of enticingly increasing hotness evolving out of her shell….
I really like this refreshing show.
Great show with drama, action, and adventure.
Love Hooten, great show and really looking forward to next season.
CW picking up this awesome series gives me high hopes for a season two. The leads and story writers deserve it. Very entertaining show!
I’m really hoping there will be a Season 2. Season one was fun. Highly entertaining with some great locations and action. A real adventure series and the kind of thing that we’ve not had on TV before. Both the lead stars were great.
It’s great news. I enjoyed the show and hope our cousins across the Atlantic will find it very entertaining as well. Also hope there will be series 2!
