USA NETWORK’S HIT SPY DRAMA ‘COVERT AFFAIRS’ RETURNS ON OCTOBER 17 WITH A NEW DATE AND TIME THURSDAYS AT 10/9C
LOS ANGELES – October 4, 2013 – USA’s hit international spy drama series, COVERT AFFAIRS, returns with six all new action packed episodes on Thursday, October 17 at 10/9c. The first half of season four brought in nearly 4 million total viewers P2+ (3.955MM), making COVERT AFFAIRS one of summer’s top 10 cable scripted shows. The season finale is scheduled for Thursday, November 21.
The critically-acclaimed spy drama series, COVERT AFFAIRS stars Golden Globe-nominee Piper Perabo ("Coyote Ugly") as Annie Walker, a young CIA operative whose exceptional linguistic skills and killer instinct make her invaluable to the Agency. As the fourth season continues, we find an emboldened Annie Walker emerging from the life she once knew. Now, she’s a spy operating off the grid without ties to her agency or the support of her beloved handler, Auggie (Christopher Gorham, "Ugly Betty"). Annie knows that tying Henry Wilcox (guest star Gregory Itzin) to the disastrous attack in Copenhagen is the best way to bring him down and that’s exactly what she aims to do. The series also stars Peter Gallagher ("The O.C.," "American Beauty"), Kari Matchett ("Invasion") and Hill Harper ("CSI:NY"). International shooting locations this season have included Medellín, Rome, Vienna, Copenhagen, Hong Kong, Grand Bahama Island and Geneva. Gorham will direct episode 414.
From Universal Cable Productions, COVERT AFFAIRS was created, written and executive produced by Matt Corman and Chris Ord, and is executive produced by Doug Liman (SUITS, the "Bourne" trilogy, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith"), David Bartis (SUITS, "The O.C.") and Gene Klein (SUITS) through Hypnotic.
