News & Interviews for Ransom: Season 1
Critic Reviews for Ransom: Season 1
All Critics (15) | Top Critics (7) | Fresh (7) | Rotten (8)
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.
Ransom is easier to take than some of them, and with a hero who doesn't have to brandish a gun to get the job done.
It's the best show you aren't watching. Don't let it go.
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.
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.
If you're just looking for another CBS procedural to casually watch on a Saturday night, Ransom is a solid choice.
