"'Found' is all about representing the underrepresented, highlighting people who are missing who don't get media attention," said actress Shanola Hampton ("Shameless"), who plays Gabi Mosely, a public relations specialist and crisis manager who was kidnapped as a child. "Her purpose in life is to make sure that no one has to save themselves like she had to." The twist of it all? Mosely kidnaps the man (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) who abducted her as revenge and keeps him locked up in her basement. "It's going to be a long season. It's 22 episodes, which we feel very fortunate that NBC believes in us, and we believe in NBC, so it's a very good fit," said Gosselaar ("Saved by the Bell," "NYPD Blue") of the second season. "We're gonna really dig into the rest of the cast and understand their backstories a little bit more." Although a fictional drama, "Found" is a great conversation-starter on bringing more attention to missing persons cases in underserved communities from all backgrounds, including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, elderly, sex workers and more. "It feels like I am doing something that is so relevant and so timely and makes so much sense right now to be highlighted," Hampton said. "Should we have been having these conversations earlier? Yes. Am I so happy and thrilled we're doing them now? Absolutely." New episodes of "Found" air Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on NBC and stream the next day on Peacock.
