We love our crime shows, and Jerry Bruckheimer is the executive producer
behind some of the best procedurals out there. With the forgotten, he gives a face to
missing persons cases by focusing the drama on the victim.
In the United States, the remains of 40,000 people haven't been identified.
When police investigations reach a dead end,
civilian volunteers across the country work to name the forgotten.
The forgotten is a drama series in which a team of dedicated amateurs, The Forgotten Network,
work on murder cases involving unidentified victims. After the police have given up, this group,
led by Alex Donovan, must first solve the puzzle of the victim's identity in order to then
help catch the killer. These are citizen volunteers solving extraordinary crimes.
Their persistence and compassion for the cases put them on a personal and
emotional journey to focus on giving names back to the deceased.
The Forgotten Network gathers in coffee shops and living rooms to discuss leads,
clues and tips, each bringing their own motivations and skills to the table,
each driven by a deep sense of purpose.
Donovan is a former detective who left the force after the disappearance of his own
young daughter. Through the use of his investigative skills, he can help piece together
each victim's story: retracing their footsteps and unearthing why they died by learning
how they lived. Working against the clock to give each victim a name before being buried
a John or Jane Doe, these amateur detectives are in it to bring closure... and win justice.
Also volunteering in The Forgotten Network is Candace Butler, a confident, headstrong young woman
who avoids the crushing boredom of her mundane job by helping the Network identify victims.
Lindsey Drake is a resilient high school science teacher, who works with the Network
as a form of penance for a crime committed by her husband.
Walter Bailey is a well-intentioned phone company employee and true-crime enthusiast,
whose zealousness can sometimes complicate investigations.
Tyler Davies is a street-smart medical school dropout and aspiring artist who is
court-ordered to join the Network to satisfy his community service.
Grace Russell is a resourceful homicide detective with the Chicago Police,
who is Alex's former protege and now his main link to the department.
The goal at the end here is to not only bring justice, but it's to bring closure
to a family that does not know the whereabouts of someone who is missing
or someone who has crossed paths with a criminal.
