“Big Sky” airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. EST and Hulu. The series is based on C.J. Box’s series of books, The Highway. Per ABC’s website, the synopsis of “Big Sky” is as follows:
“Big Sky is a thriller by David E. Kelley following private detectives Cassie Dewell (Kylie Bunbury) and Cody Hoyt (Ryan Phillippe), who join forces with Cody’s estranged wife and ex-cop, Jenny Hoyt (Katheryn Winnick), to search for two sisters who have been kidnapped by a truck driver on a remote highway in Montana. When they discover that these are not the only girls who have disappeared in the area, they must race against the clock to stop the kidnappers before another woman is taken.”
Mahal moved to the WWE SmackDown brand in the 2021 WWE Draft; alongside Shanky, he recently started feuding with Hit Row.
