Watch Kidnapped

Kidnapped was a dramatic television series that aired on NBC from 2006 to 2007. The show was centered on the kidnapping of a wealthy teenager and the investigations and aftermath surrounding the event. The cast of the show included some notable actors such as Jeremy Sisto, Carmen Ejogo, Delroy Lindo, Linus Roache, Will Denton, Timothy Hutton, Mykelti Williamson, and Dana Delany.

The story arc of Kidnapped was centered around the disappearance of the Cain family's teenage son. The Cains were a wealthy family living in New York City, and their son Leo was abducted from their apartment in Manhattan. The kidnappers were a highly skilled and well-organized group, and they demanded a ransom of twenty million dollars for Leo's safe return. The Cains, of course, were desperate to get their son back, and they hired private investigator Knapp (played by Jeremy Sisto) to lead the search for Leo.

The investigation was complicated by a number of factors, including the fact that the kidnappers seemed to know a lot about the Cains and their financial dealings. Knapp quickly discovered that Leo's kidnapping was tied up with the actions of he and his family. The FBI was enlisted to help with the investigation, led by Agent Latimer King (played by Delroy Lindo) and the New York City Police Department also became involved.

The show soon evolved into a complex thriller that kept audiences on the edge of their seats. Along the way, the characters are lied to, deceived and mislead by a group of criminals that are one step ahead of the investigation's every move. Knapp works tirelessly to keep up-to-date with the kidnappers' movements and to decipher the remaining parts of the puzzle to find Leo.

The show explored the relationships between the various characters, including those of the Cain family, the investigators and the kidnappers. Each character had their own motives and secrets, and the story was filled with twists and turns that kept viewers engaged throughout its run.

The acting on the show was superb, with all of the cast members representing their characters in the most realistic way possible. The characters all had depth, with detailed backstories that gave them a good amount of depth, adding an extra layer of interest to the already captivating story.

The show's production design was also noteworthy. The sets and locations – featuring expensive homes, upscale lifestyles and high-scale decorating – added a level of luxury and detail that made the world of Kidnapped feel authentic.

The show’s soundtrack was also carefully curated. The suspenseful moments had tense and thrilling background scores while the quieter moments were backed by more subdued sounds. The choice of music helped to heighten the tension and drama of the story.

Despite being critically acclaimed, Kidnapped was cancelled after Season 1 by NBC. Due to mediocre ratings, as well as NBC’s premiering of shows at the same time slot, Kidnapped fell victim to low viewership, making it unprofitable to produce a second season.

Overall, Kidnapped was a gripping, well-written thriller that explored the darker sides of humanity, family relationships, and human greed. The show contained a well-rounded cast of characters, skilled acting, impressive production design and a thoughtful soundtrack. Its short run is a great loss to avid TV viewers who appreciate such engaging dramas.

Kidnapped is a series that ran for 1 seasons (13 episodes) between September 20, 2006 and on NBC
