“In Ransom Canyon, everyone’s running from something, or running to something,” we hear as the trailer for Ransom Canyon starts. There are a bunch of beautiful shots from the outdoors to football to small towns. There is something calming about Josh Duhamel’s voice that puts you at ease and draws you in.
I have screeners for the 10 episodes that are in this season, and I admit i’ve not watched them yet. I wait for closer to the premiere, because I just know that this is going to be a show I am going to want to talk to people about.
The official synopsis of the series is, “Welcome to Ransom Canyon, where love, loss, and loyalty collide beneath the crimson mesas of Texas Hill Country. With three ranching family dynasties locked in a contest for control of the land, their lives and legacies are threatened by outside forces intent on destroying their way of life. At the center of it all is stoic rancher Staten Kirkland (Josh Duhamel), who is healing from heartbreaking loss and on a quest for vengeance.”

It continues, “Staten’s only glimmer of hope rests in the eyes and heart of Quinn O’Grady (Minka Kelly), longtime family friend and owner of the local dancehall. But as the battle to save Ransom wages on, a mysterious cowboy drifts into town, dredging up secrets from the past. Vise tightening, Staten fights to protect the land he calls home, and the only love that can pull him back from the demons that haunt him.”
