Quote:

For decades, ex-government agent Raymond "Red" Reddington (James Spader) has been one of the FBI's most wanted fugitives. Brokering shadowy deals for criminals across the globe, Red was known by many as "The Concierge of Crime."

Now, he's mysteriously surrendered to the FBI with an explosive offer: he will help catch a long-thought-dead terrorist, Ranko Zamani, under the condition that he speaks only to Elizabeth "Liz" Keen, an FBI proﬁler fresh out of Quantico. For Liz, it's going to be one hell of a ﬁrst day on the job.

What follows is a twisting series of events as the race to stop a terrorist begins. What are Red's true intentions? Why has he chosen Liz, a woman with whom he seemingly has no connection? Does Liz have secrets of her own?

Zamani, we come to ﬁnd out, is only the ﬁrst of many on a list that Red has compiled over the years: a "blacklist" of politicians, mobsters, spies and international terrorists. He will help catch them all... with the caveat that Liz continues to work as his partner. Red will teach Liz to think like a criminal and "see the bigger picture"... whether she wants to or not.

From writer/executive producer Jon Bokenkamp ("Taking Lives") and executive producers John Eisendrath ("Alias," "My Own Worst Enemy") and John Davis ("Gulliver's Travels," "Predator") comes a global thriller that will become more mysterious with each name on the list. One-hour drama.

Looks very 'Silence of the Lambs' like, I'm for it.

I'm in as well. While I will always say they showed too much in the trailer, I think it has serious potential.

This also looks to be another good role for James Spader. He's good at playing smart ass characters.

menaceuk · 05-15-2013, 05:13 PM

I'm In too. Looks very good.

hagios · 05-25-2013, 07:15 PM

Looks like my kind of show!

I wasn't planning on watching this when NBC announced they were picking it up as a series. But then I happened on an ad for it while watching something else on NBC (must've been Crossing Lines) and thought Spader came off as amazingly creepy, so I've added it to my fall watch schedule.

Spader's acting doesn't appear to be very strong from the commercials and advertisements I've seen. I can't say I'm that excited about it.

Spader is always awesome. Show looks interesting to me.

djariya · 08-11-2013, 06:24 PM

Looking forward to it.

Just keep in mind this show isn't serialized. It's an action procedural. It may have character arcs, but the focal point is them hunting these people on "The Blacklist"

The 10pm hr on Monday night is going to be a ruff one...Blacklist in nbc and Hostages on CBS...one is going to get DVR, not sure which one yet.

Scottie · 09-23-2013, 02:51 PM

Maybe it's just me but I think this and that new show with the guy in the wheelchair looks terrible.

Same here. But I think I'm going with Hostages Live because I'm going to be watching CBS From 8-10 anyways

SquidPuppet · 09-23-2013, 05:36 PM

Serialized or episodic?

I'm not going near Hostages, but that timeslot also has Castle.

Anyway, I DVR every show that I watch regularly. We started out doing so in case someone calls while we're watching something, or something else interrupts our viewing. But we find that we rarely watch anything live anymore, so everything gets DVR'd.

djariya · 09-24-2013, 03:31 AM

10pm is a tough timeslot this year.

I predict that at least week 1, The Blacklist will win the timeslot. Castle has a stable fanbase and will finish 2nd and Hostages will finish 3rd. Hostages may get slightly better numbers than H50.

Hasn't aired on the West coast yet, looking forward to it.

Also, I believe it's for the most part episodic with some character and story arcs. That's how Sony was able to sell this show into so many international markets. Heavily serialized shows aren't attractive to overseas markets.

Yes, you are correct, I was mistaken.
