Ransom

I really enjoyed the first two seasons. Tho I didn't like the idea of Maxine being Eric's second cos she wasn't really helpful and sometimes too stubborn that she'd get the team in trouble. Her character was written just to put conflict or drama in the main character's story. I also didn't get the relationship between Eric and his wife / ex-wife. They were like teenagers who couldn't make up their minds if they're together or not. What really made Season 1 and 2 great, were the episodic stories, not the main characters' stories.

Third season wasn't much about negotiation anymore. It became like any other cop/crime show.

I am thoroughly enjoying "Ransom". It captures and keeps my attention throughout each episode. The story lines are varied and fresh and depend on intellect rather than brawn and muscle. The interactions between the characters could be more developed but they do form a cohesive team. The acting is on par with other top rated TV shows. I definitely recommend this series.

It's alraaaaate ...... not gripping but I found it's not bad to have on in background through day. But it's not for box setting sessions in the evening when the kids are in bed. It's no blacklist or billions. But it gets you through the day you can go make a brew and come back and still pick the story up.

I like mystery and cop shows. Ransom promised both so it was intriguing to me and I gave it a chance. The way the young college girl got into the first scene without ID was a bit far fetched. The head of the agency is a bit of a James Bond type which is appealing. Beaumont is like Bond in that he is mysterious and well dressed but can handle any altercation! There is a story within a story which I find holds my interest. It looks like this could be stories that are resolved each week which also appeals to me. Complete the problem and story each week and let me move on! I think it will be an entertaining show so I will continue to watch it. If you like the above you will like the show.

I've watched 10 series of the show and think it is captivating and worth seeing. Apart from main line about ransom we learn bit by bit about main characters and boy, do they have juicy secrets. Most episodes have really well-developed plot, all characters are charismatic and interesting. I am waiting for new episodes. Really like it!
