For what it is - something serviceable to fit in CBS's Saturday lineup - Ransom will do, but pretty much is a square peg fitting in a square hole.

If you're just looking for another CBS procedural to casually watch on a Saturday night, Ransom is a solid choice.

I never shook the feeling that I was watching something that, from cast to the overall aesthetic, we weren't meant to see on American network TV, except for maybe in the summer when [better] Canadian productions... have thrived.

Ransom could use some caffeine.
January 05, 2017
The series can boast a unique premise and a promising cast, but the pilot falls short of delivering a truly compelling hour of television... a lot may need to change if Ransom is to have a long future at CBS.

Its premise is built for adrenaline-rush moments, not for the long haul.

With a ton of shows out there just like it, the trick will be in getting those who already have full TV schedules to make room for a series that doesn't immediately stand out from the crowd.

Lack of energy is a problem for this show. It's missing that electricity that makes investing in yet another great man procedural worth it.
January 03, 2017
It's not bad television, really. It's just by-the-CBS-book television. Episodes will mostly be self-contained, although the relationship between Beaumont and Carlson will provide a long-game string.
