As expected, CBS has cancelled Ransom after one season. The low-rated drama will not return for Season 2, joining instead fellow one-and-done freshman series Training Day, Pure Genius and Doubt in CBS’ cancellation graveyard.

I loved this show and feel CBS did it an injustice by putting it on at 8/7c on Saturday Night. It was doomed before it began. It was a clever international drama with a unique storyline and newcomer Cast. A second season on a better day may be all it needed to take off. So sad that good shows are kicked to the side for meaningless comedy and reality shows. I guess it goes to show that good TV is a thing of the past. I guess I’ll find some more good books to read.

I agree! This is one of the best shows on TV. It seems every show I like is being cancelled. I absolutely loved Ransom. CBS has no idea what they are doing cancelling all the good shows and putting such crap on. I hope another network picks it up.

I really liked this show.I knew it did not have a chance as CBS put it on at a bad time and day. To bad they did not change the day before cancelling it. I taped evry show and enjoyed it very much. To many are going for 1/2 hour sitcomes which I never watch. So o9ne less show for me to watch. I now watch CBs on tues and one show on wed and one show on friday. i also watch 2 on sunday. so saturday is now free for whatever or nothing. I am very thankful for HGTV and hallmark. I can ususally watch those when I WANT TO RELAX.
THX cbs FOR ANOTHER BAD DECISION.

I love that you are heartbroken over this piece of crap getting canceled.

Just because you did not like it does not mean others didn’t. Go comment on some other show.

Sorry to see this show go. I thought it was very interesting. Just think it was on a bad time and day. It probably would of done better in a different time slot.

There always has to be that one person that can’t keep their mouth shut and is negative! Didn’t your parents teach if you can’t say anything nice, do not saying anything at all? I thought the show was very good and wish CBS gave it a better time slot. I have no problem with a show ending, but not on a cliffhanger.
Estella Donna Lucas says
Yes indeed,
LeeAnn says
I really enjoyed this show. As usual, you take off the good program’s.

Last I heard… As of yesterday RANSOM isn’t officially dead in the water yet. It’s an international production not wholly owned by the network. There are 4 partners that must agree or disagree with going forward. At last check 2 of the 4 want to renew the show.. I heard all this AFTER initially hearing of cancellation… So it may or may not really be cancelled. Here’s hoping it returns… Whether on the same network or a new one.

Hey Ransom fans, Canada is keeping the show going on their own, so you will be able to see Ransom season 2 next year in some fashion.
