The Blacklist Returns

teganslaw — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 15:42:36 GMT

The Blacklist is back Thursday, Jan 6 at 8:00 EST, NBC.

I don't like it being on hiatus so often. Hopefully, it will stay for several weeks.

My husband and I will be watching. Though we're growing a little tired (and bored) with the show. If things don't pick up or change for the better for us, this will be our last season.

They should have canceled it after last sesson. I watched but the boring storyline was uninteresting and seemed pointless. Its what so often happens to great shows that stay on too long.

I'll be watching.

And did not make much sense.

#1 - Dembe is now an FBI agent? How?

#2 - No mention of Reds mysterious terminal illness. Now he is travelling around w/a voodoo/witch doctor who is keeping him healthy?

Last but not least........

#3 - Liz daughter went from 5-6 yrs old to 10-11 yrs of age in 2 years?

The ONLY interesting character is that kick @$$ female bodyguard Red now has.

Agent Park mentioned that she recruited Dembe. I don't know why he became an FBI agent, though.

I guess that Agnes went through a time warp and added extra years. Viewers weren't suppose to notice.

As far as Red's terminal illness: doctors are sometimes wrong in their diagnosis. He could be improving through alternative methods, like voodoo. I don't think they told us exactly what his illness is.

I'll still watch and not try to figure out everything. I wouldn't miss Ressler, as he doesn't add anything to the show.

Lol. It's a crazy mish mash of foolishness.

Tonight is all about the human yawn Ressler and his life after Liz.

I thought Harold Cooper sponsored Dembe. Dembe had to have earned his citizenship in order to join. It may be off base but as long as Dembe is still around I'll let it pass. LIke they asked for my opinion. LOL

Yes, Agnes should be about 8 or so since she was born in Season 3.

I'll let that one pass, too. Like they asked for my opinion. LOL

I don't think Red looks all that good-not keen (no pun intended) about his "medical" care with Mierce but Weecha does a good job as his bodyguard.

It really does take some getting used to, though, to have these sisters around.

I don't know how much longer this series can hold up-but will continue to watch just to see James Spader. Hopefully Reddington's relationship to Liz and his real identity will be revealed.

Yep. Boring.

He saw the fresh track marks on the bartender's arm so he asks an active addict where to score? And leaves her a $25 tip? No wonder he was mugged. I did not think we needed a whole episode of Ressler dealing with Liz being gone but whatever.

@Cakers3Regarding the last sentence of your "spoiler"......

When Ressler was at Liz gravesite, her death date clearly stated 2021. Since the new season episodes are about what happened to the team 2 years after Liz death, are we to believe it's the year 2023 in Blacklist land?

@Mz iMac I thought the scene was supposed to be in the future since he told the florist that it was a long time coming to tell "her" something.

Plus there was a scene where the barber said he cleaned up like a shiny new penny-facial hair gone and hair was styled

He was wearing a suit at the grave, too, and not the old clothes he was wearing at the motel.

I think the whole episode was to chronicle what he did for 2 years and then he finally was able to visit her grave and we saw this in a time jump.

Liz's gravestone said -

Keen

Elizabeth

But in next week's episode, Red is looking at her gravestone and it says -

Elizabeth Keen

@Daisy Sunflower It is a different gravestone, too. When Ressler went to her gravestone, it was right next to Tom and the two gravestones were higher (vertical) and identical

The one Red is at is short and not next to a matching gravestone.

Unless one of the graves is a fake, which I cannot even begin to think would be reasonable.

Is anyone still watching? I am, only because I have watched it from the beginning, but this season is really bad. The bigwigs at NBC should put a pin in this show and put it out of its misery.

Re: The Blacklist Returns

Mz iMac — Fri, 21 Jan 2022 00:49:56 GMT

@Jordan2 Still watching. Tonite's episode is about how Dembe got to join the FBI & why.

This will be my last season of watching. Show been on a hundren years & we still do not know WHO Red really is?

Even his voodoo/witch doctor lover left him.

Re: The Blacklist Returns

Jordan2 — Fri, 21 Jan 2022 02:09:57 GMT

@Mz iMac they said tonight the show is moving back to Friday.

Re: The Blacklist Returns

Cakers3 — Fri, 21 Jan 2022 02:34:36 GMT

I was not impressed with tonight's episode. In fact, disappointed with Dembe's daughter.

That's all I'll say.

@Jordan2 Feb 25th is when it will return-Season 9. The new L&O will start Feb 24th in the Turnsday slot.

I forgot to add........

It now seems when the show returns, the rest of the season will be Red trying to locate the person who killed Liz besides advising the FBI who the next Blacklister is.

I hope Reds kick @$$ bodyguard gets more screen time. I want to know her back story before I quit watching.

When she threw that knife into that guys neck in TOTAL DARKNESS from like 1000 ft away I was like--->
