NBC's 'Taken' (0.2) rose from the grave and posted a new low for its burnoff premiere. It was two-tenths below its final Friday outing. The peacock network capped off the night with a repeat of 'Dateline' (0.5).
CBS's 'Ransom' (0.2) matched its fellow drama and was steady with last week. It led into anemic repeats of '48 Hours' (0.2/0.3).
ABC had 0.3s across the board with encores of 'American Idol' and '20/20'.
FOX had a baseball game (0.5) that tied for the top program of the night.
