Former NBC News correspondent Chris Hansen is best-known for his signature “To Catch a Predator” segments, and he’ll be continuing the hunt in the second season of daytime syndicated series “Crime Watch Daily”.
According to The Los Angeles Times, the series’ new title will be “Crime Watch Daily with Chris Hansen” to reflect Hansen’s addition to the show, in which he’ll use hidden cameras “to ensnare people who use the Internet for criminal activity.”

Hansen was an NBC News correspondent for 20 years until he left the network in 2014, and he’ll become the face of the show when the news season debuts on Sept. 12.
“Hansen will anchor the program out of New York, often using the streets as a backdrop,” reports the L.A. Times. “The other reporters on the series — Matt Doran, Jason Mattera, Ana Garcia, Andrea Isom and Michelle Sigona — will continue to operate out of the program’s Los Angeles newsroom.”
