Development

[edit]

On October 21, 2014, it was announced that ABC had bought the original concept for a drama series about a gutsy female forensic accountant, based on a treatment written by novelist Kate Atkinson.[6] The script was written by Jennifer Schuur. The Catch is produced by Shonda Rhimes, Betsy Beers, Julie Anne Robinson, and Schuur. ABC ordered the pilot on January 26, 2015 for the 2015–16 television season.[7] The pilot episode was filmed in Austin, Texas and was directed by Julie Anne Robinson.[8] On May 7, 2015, ABC picked up the pilot to series.[9]

In June 2015, it was announced The Catch would take over How to Get Away with Murder's Thursday 10 ET/9 CT slot and form part of Shondaland's mid-season #TGIT block. On August 18, 2015, it was announced that the series creator Jennifer Schuur had exited the series as showrunner because of creative differences. Shondaland's Allan Heinberg, who has worked on Grey's Anatomy and Scandal, then stepped in as showrunner of The Catch.[10] The Catch premiered on March 24, 2016.[1] On May 12, 2016, ABC renewed the series for a second season,[2] which premiered on March 9, 2017.[3] On May 11, 2017, ABC canceled the series after two seasons.[4]

Casting

[edit]

Casting advertisement began in February 2015. On March 2, 2015, it was announced that Mireille Enos would play the leading role of Alice Vaughan.[11][12][13] Newcomer Damon Dayoub was cast for the male leading role as Alice's fiancé, Benjamin Jones.[14] Bethany Joy Lenz later was cast as his criminal wife, Zoe.[15] Alan Ruck and Rose Rollins were cast as an estranged couple and friends of Alice and Alice's fiancé Benjamin's.[16][17] Jacky Ido was cast as an FBI agent who becomes suspicious of Alice, along with Jay Hayden and Elvy Yost as Alice's co-workers in her forensic firm.[13][18] On May 18, 2015, Lenz revealed on her WhoSay account that she was being replaced.[19] The same day, it was announced that Damon Dayoub, the male lead, was also being replaced.[20]

On July 14, 2015, it was reported that Peter Krause had taken over the male lead role of Benjamin Jones replacing Dayoub, who played the role in the pilot.[5] On July 22, 2015, Sonya Walger was added to the cast as Margot Bishop, replacing Lenz.[21] The pilot was reshot with the new cast members.[citation needed]

Cast and characters

Main cast

[edit]

Recurring cast

[edit]

The Vaughan character was significantly revised after the pilot episode: instead of a Chicago-based auditor, she became a Los Angeles-based private investigator. She also became sexier: instead of being a "very guarded, lacquered ’50s-era Hitchcock presence," Vaughan became "peppier, a life-lover with mascaraed lashes and a closet filled with Bond girl minidresses."[22] Her style is a "modernised look of the 1960s".[23][clarification needed]

Broadcast

[edit]

Internationally, the series premiered in Australia on the Seven Network on October 10, 2016.[24] In the UK the show premiered on Sky Living.[25] Since 2022, the show became available on Disney+ outside the US.
