A&E Gives Bounty Hunter A 2nd Chance
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: February 26, 2008
HONOLULU - TV bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman is preparing a return to the airwaves.
The Chapman family has confirmed that filming is set to resume on the A&E show "Dog the Bounty Hunter." The show features Chapman and crew in pursuit of bail jumpers in Hawaii and other states.
It was the highest-rated show on A&E before the network pulled it off the air in November. Chapman was heard in a taped phone conversation using a racial slur in reference to his son's black girlfriend.
Chapman has apologized and tried to make amends with the network and the black community.
Network officials says that since the show is about second chances, they decided to accept his apology and resume production. No airdate has been announced.
