Hunted Premiere Airing October 19th On Cinemax

HBO announces new series from Frank Spotnitz called Hunted.
From the Press Release
From “The X-Files” writer and producer Frank Spotnitz comes HUNTED, an eight-episode drama series set in the world of international espionage. Golden Globe nominee Melissa George (HBO’s “In Treatment”) stars as Sam Hunter, a skilled, gutsy operative for Byzantium, a secretive private firm involved in global intelligence and espionage. After surviving an attempt on her life that may have been orchestrated by members of her own team, she returns to work, but doesn’t know who to trust. Shot on location in Europe, the primetime suspense show debuts FRIDAY, OCT. 19 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT) on CINEMAX.

The cast of HUNTED also includes Adam Rayner (“Hawthorne,” “Dragon Age: Redemption”), Stephen Dillane (HBO’s “Game of Thrones” and “John Adams”), Stephen Campbell Moore (“The Bank Job,” “The History Boys”), Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (“Lost,” CINEMAX’s “Strike Back”), Morven Christie (“The Sinking of the Laconia”), Lex Shrapnel (“Captain America: The First Avenger”), Indira Varma (“Human Target,” HBO’s “Rome”), Dhaffer L’Abidine (“Sex and the City 2”) and Patrick Malahide (“Billy Elliot,” HBO’s “Five Days”).

In addition to Frank Spotnitz, who wrote four episodes and co-wrote another episode, writers on the series include Simon Allen (“M.I. High”), Smita Bhide (“The Blue Tower”) and Christian Spurrier (“MI-5”), who each wrote one episode, and Amira El Nemr (“Luther”), who co-wrote one episode.

Directors for the series include SJ Clarkson (“Life on Mars”), Daniel Percival (co-executive producer of season one of the CINEMAX series “Strike Back”), James Strong (“Downton Abbey”) and Alrick Riley (“MI-5”), each of whom directed two episodes.

The executive producers are Frank Spotnitz, Kudos’ Alison Jackson, Jane Featherstone and Stephen Garrett; Christopher Aird and Polly Hill executive produce for BBC One; Eliza Mellor produces.

HUNTED is produced by Kudos Film & Television (“MI-5,” “Life on Mars”) in association with Big Light Productions for CINEMAX and BBC One.

HUNTED marks the second recent original primetime series on CINEMAX, following last year’s Emmy®-nominated hit action drama “Strike Back,” which was the first original primetime series on the network in more than 15 years, and is currently in its second season. The third original CINEMAX series to debut will be “Banshee,” which is executive produced by Alan Ball (HBO’s “True Blood”) and slated to debut in Jan. 2013.

Buffet Bliss or Southern Swing-and-a-Miss? A Bite at Kacey’s in Huntsville

  Walk through the doors of Kacey’s Country Cooking in Huntsville and you’re greeted by the comforting smell of fried chicken, collard greens, and cornbread that could double as perfume for any true Southerner. This is where the buffet line reigns supreme, the sweet tea flows endlessly, and dessert is always just an arm’s reach away. For many locals, Kacey’s is a comfort food paradise. Fans brag about the fried green tomatoes, juicy pork chops, slow-cooked beef tips, and banana pudding that deserves its own holiday. The staff are another highlight—quick with refills, friendly enough to feel like family, and the kind of people who can make a buffet feel like Sunday dinner at grandma’s. But Kacey’s has its critics too. Some diners rave about “the best bang for your buck in town,” while others complain that the food sometimes veers into “straight-from-the-can” territory. Like most buffets, it’s a roll of the dice: hit the line on a good day and you’ll be full and happy; catch it on an...
