What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the NBC television network, Taken stars Clive Standen, Jennifer Beals, Gaius Charles, Brooklyn Sudano, Monique Gabriela Curnen, Michael Irby, James Landry Hébert, and Jose Pablo Cantillo. A prequel set thirty years prior to the Liam Neeson feature film trilogy, the Taken TV show follows the young, hungry, former Green Beret, Bryan Mills (Standen). After a personal tragedy upends his life, he embarks on a quest for vengeance. While working as a CIA operative, Mills hones his infamously lethal skill set. He works for Special Deputy Director of National Intelligence, Christina Hart (Beals), and alongside his OPCON teammates Dave (Cantillo), John (Charles), Becca Vlasik (Curnen), Scott (Michael Irby), and Rem (James Landry Hébert). Finally, there is attorney Asha Flyn (Sudano). Beautiful and motivated, she reconnects with Bryan at a critical point in their lives.

Telly’s Take
The series premiered with mediocre numbers and the ratings have gotten much worse — despite having The Voice as a lead-in. I suspect that the Taken TV show will be cancelled and not renewed for a second season.
5/9 update: Thanks to international sales, NBC has renewed Taken for a second season. Details here.

What do you think? Are you glad that the Taken TV show has been renewed for a second season? How would you feel if NBC had cancelled this drama series, instead?
Put Taken Back. It was a great show and I would be very sad if you cancel it.
Please renew Taken. It is a great show and has an excellent cast.
Myself and my husband love this show… it’s like we can’t get enough of it. Please keep this show around. The only downside are the gaps in between the shows at times.
I want season two
This show is addicting and hard to stop watching and wait for the next episode.
My wife and I are hooked on it and can’t wait for season 2
Cancel this show, please.
It´s so predictable, boring like the dust.
Please renew this program and do not change a thing about it! Both my husband and myself thoroughly enjoy watching this roller-coaster nailbiting thriller!
So glad Taken was renewed. Hope it gains more popularity. This show is so well done that you feel like you’re watching a movie rather than TV series. It’s more realistic than a lot of TV shows that are just a little too hokey to be believable. I highly recommend watching Taken & hope it continues for a lot of seasons!
I really love the show taken it’s my favorite show and I love Clive standsen in the show
We never were aware of the program because we watched other alternative to “The Voice” which we only watched for one season and wasn’t completely taken by it so missed any of the promo for “Taken”. We caught up with it on NBCs On Demand. WOW, what a find…enjoyed the series completely.
So glad to see Taken starring Clive Standen is returning for 2017-18. Love Clive Standen and the show gets better and better.
So happy to see Taken is returning for Season 2. Love Clive Standen and the show keeps getting better and better.
Thrilled at Taken’s renewal. Can’t wait for season 2! Love it!
If u guys cancelle I’ll be really pissed
This is going to be a good show. Give it a chance.
