About Hunting Season – Most Wanted
Hunting Season Most Wanted takes the best elements of the linear Hunting Season format and transforms it into a streaming powerhouse. In this arced competition, ten Dutch celebrities will escape in a spectacular way from a high-security prison somewhere in the country. However, this has not gone unnoticed by the three guards, the men of Team STUK. Giel, Thomas, and Stefan give chase.
For five days, Team STUK chases the celebrity fugitives, who must stay out of sight without any modern conveniences. Stripped of phones, money, and resources, the fugitives must find places to sleep, eat, and travel unnoticed – all while wearing bright orange prison jumpsuits. Meanwhile, Team STUK has the upper hand, equipped with gadgets like GPS trackers, drones, and real-time travel information as they hunt from their mobile base, determined to capture the fugitives before time runs out. Can the famous fugitives manage to evade capture for five days? Or will the three hunters outsmart them one by one?
