Ransom will premiere on 5USA on Tuesday June 18th at 9pm.
Ransom follows crisis/hostage negotiator Eric Beaumont, whose team is brought in to save lives when no one else can. Eric understands criminals better than they do, and uses his insight into human behavior to resolve the most difficult kidnap and ransom cases. Despite the stakes, Eric refuses to resort to violence, even when confronted by some of the most dangerous criminals in the world. While Eric’s considerable powers of manipulation make him the best at what he does professionally, they often complicate his relationships with family, friends and colleagues.
The series was created by Frank Spotnitz and David Vainola and is inspired by the professional experiences of distinguished negotiator Laurent Combalbert and his partner Marwan Mery, who are considered to be among the top crisis negotiators in the world, and stars Luke Roberts (Game Of Thrones), Brandon Jay McLaren (Falling Skies), Nazneen Contractor (Chicago PD) and Sarah Greene (Penny Dreadful).
This far, three seasons of the show have been produced.

Nazneen Contractor? Contractor? Wonder how his ancestors got that surname.

Is this another Canadian show? We seem to be getting more of these at the moment as the PI show and Mary Kills People come from there. I have always thought we should look to buy in from there as well as the US. Maybe in the past they just bought in US shows for the Canadian market and didn't have much of a local industry, but they do now.

An awful lot of US set shows are actually filmed in Canada, I think because of good tax concessions.

Recently 'discovered' this while flicking through the channels. Don't know the actors, but it doesn't matter if the storyline is good. Will continue to watch.

I've been watching this. I find it quite enjoyable, not great but entertaining.
