Mark-Paul Gosselaar plays creepy kidnapper in twisty NBC procedural ‘Found’: review

nypost.com:

The new NBC series, premiering Oct. 3 at 10 p.m., stars Shanola Hampton as Gabi Mosely, whose high-profile, high-powered crisis-management firm, Mosley & Associates, finds missing people relegated to the margins of society (minorities, sex workers, etc.) and ignored by the public and by the press.

Gabi, who’s in her late 30s, knows from whence she crusades: she was taken at the age of 15 from her father by a creepy, bearded, impeccably-dressed man she called “Sir” (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) who held her captive in a locked, book-filled house while force-feeding her an education … on his terms (Shakespeare, science) and, literally, scripting parts of her existence with a healthy does of emotional abuse.Sir eventually kidnapped a younger girl, Bella, after Gabi expressed her loneliness — and, together, the two hostages suffered under his psychotic rule until they were able to escape.Flash forward to 20 years later.

Gabi now runs her powerful firm in Washington, DC, with her crack crisis-management team, all of whom she’s helped in one way or another.

There’s Zeke (Arlen Escarpeta), an agoraphobic computer whiz whose wealthy family is funding Gabi’s company; Margaret (Kelli Williams), who possesses an uncanny sense of detection after searching for her missing son the past 13 years; Lacy (Gabrielle Elise Walsh), who’s new to the team after graduating from law school (paid for by Gabi); and Dahn (Karan Oberoi), who (grudgingly) works with Zeke and who, himself, was taken as a child and uses that experience to fuel his outrage and his outlook.Gabi et al.
