NBC’s Taken, the television prequel to the hit Liam Neeson trilogy, is gearing up for a home video release for it’s recently completed first season. The revenge thriller hits DVD and Blu-ray on September 26th.
I haven’t seen a single episode of this show, but I’m oddly intrigued. How this premise works as a prequel in a television format boggles my mind so I sort of feel like I have to see it for that reason alone. Plus Luc Besson’s involvement peaks my interest and I’m always game for some Jennifer Beals. I’m going to walk into this set with open arms, eager to see what it’s all about.
