Additionally, the series aired on Saturday nights, which is about the worst time slot for any television series that isn’t named Saturday Night Live.
Any show would probably struggle in that slot, so Ransom’s underwhelming performance on CBS wasn’t exactly surprising.
The final season of Ransom averaged around 2.3 million viewers and a .26 rating (via TVLine) in the key demographic, which isn’t great but was around the same performance numbers it had in Season 2.
