Chase (2010 TV series)

Chase is a series from Jerry Bruckheimer for NBC about the US Marshals Service, and their efforts to catch various wanted felons.

The show was canceled with five episodes left on its first season.

If you're looking for a reality show, that's Chase.

Note: Officially renamed Jerry Bruckheimer's Chase in Britain, presumably to avoid confusion with the ITV game show The Chase.
