TV show description:
A British adventure drama, the Hooten & The Lady TV show centers on American treasure hunter Ulysses Hooten (Landes) and his British counterpart, Lady Alexandra Lindo-Parker (Lovibond). The series follows this unlikely duo of polar opposites and they travel the globe in pursuit of legendary relics.
Adventurous to the point of being rash, Hooten is a charming loner, who frequently ends up in thorny circumstances. He is, however, an honorable soul at his core.
Meanwhile, the aristocratic Lady Alex is a curator at the British Museum and tends to operate by the book. Still, she loves to travel to far-flung locales, like her heroes Percy Fawcett, Howard Carter, David Livingstone, and Mary Kingsley.
Alex’s best friend, Ella (Hynes) is both highly intelligent and adept in many different areas. Alex can count on her support and assistance, no matter how many miles separate them. At the museum, they both report to Clive (Parkes), who also keeps careful track of Alex, despite her globe-trotting.
Lady Lindo-Parker (Seymour) is Alex’s cultured, cosmopolitan mother, who meets Hooten in a swanky Roman wine bar. Not one to shy away from candor, she makes it clear she is not his biggest fan.
An attractive man, Edward (Bailey) is Lady Alex’s eager fiancé. Although he can’t wait for their wedding, Alex’s itinerary leaves them little time to see one another.
After Hooten and Alex meet in the Amazon jungle, this implausible pair partners up to search the world for obscure artifacts and other mysterious objects. Thanks to their different natures, their partnership is often a bit bumpy. Still, practical considerations and the risky nature of their quests bring them together, as they travel to places including Bhutan, Moscow, Rome and Egypt, on the hunt for missing treasure.
Series Finale:
Episode #8 — The Caribbean
Alex (Ophelia Lovibond) puts her wedding in jeopardy when she follows Hooten (Michael Landes) to an idyllic island in the Caribbean to hunt for the long lost pirate treasure.
First aired: September 11, 2017.
What do you think? Do you like the Hooten & The Lady TV series? Should it have been cancelled or renewed for a second season on The CW?
Hooten and The Lady was rollicking good clean fun. The inter action between the two main stars was exceptional. I think there was plenty of opportunity to develop the series a t least for a year or two. Possibly with a little more direction in seeking the various treasures.
The two main characters are funny in their own way, and as I said it was just FUN.
I loved this show it should have been renewed. Very disappointed!
Its a good show, should have been renewed
I loved the show. I’d love to see it revived.
This show was really entertaining. I am so sad they canceled it. It was a cute show and had everything. Slap stick, to laugh, a mystery, to keep you guessing, love interest, to keep you wondering. It was a simple show that was fun.
I loved the summer TV show, Hooten and the Lady. I watched this show every time it was on and wondered why it was canceled. Can I watch this show on any other website? Sorry to see this great show cancelled which reminds me of Indiana Jones movies which had forgotten treasures, antiquities and the history of the past.
Loved this show!! Sooooo sorry to see it won’t be returning.

I love this show! Why cancel something so good?
I just found out about the show a week ago and my whole family loves the show. Should have been more advertising done for the show. Most definitely needs renewed some how. Need more good shows like this.
This is a cute show. My wife and I are VERY disappointed. Please renew, even if it’s just a summer series. Loved the characters’ chemistry, locations, and history references. Again, bring it back.
