A drama following an agent-turned-fugitive who offers to help the FBI catch top criminals.


Ex-government agent Raymond "Red" Reddington has been one of the FBI's most wanted fugitives for decades, thanks to his skillful brokering of shady deals for top criminals around the world.

Red has mysteriously surrendered to the FBI with an offer to the agency. He will help them catch a previously-thought dead terrorist under the condition that he speaks only to a certain FBI profiler named Elizabeth Keen. As a twisting series of events unfolds in the race to stop a terrorist, they wonder what Red's true intentions are and exactly why he has chosen Elizabeth to deal with.

It is revealed that Red has actually compiled has a long list over the years that is known as a "blacklist" of politicians, spies, mobsters, and terrorists. And Red is willing to help catch them all, as long as he continues to work with Elizabeth as his partner.

Producers
Please end this 'on the run' story Arc and get Liz back on the FBI Team running cases like in season 1 and 2
This is a great show and if you continue with this awful long ARC of NONSENCE the series probably will get cancelled???

I should have added that I would love to have Hisham Tawfiq at my back. [The camera is not focused on him but he is still doing his acting job.] He is a great actor in this role.
And I like guest stars like Dianne Wiest (Lost Boys, Law & Order) and Mary-Louise Parker (Red, Red2, Red Dragon, West Wing).
They add a lot to their respective episodes

After watching cocky James Spader on Boston legal and its predecessor I couldn't turn this one down. In a way he is almost playing the same character. I didn't think they would kill off Alan Alda and Jane Alexander, Surprise.
The second wave of support cast have become as believable as RED. The first wave development was slow.
One Note:
Watch for Booch O'Connell to become a household name.

Keep this show coming. Looking forward to NBC renewing a fourth season! Reddington knows how to kick ass and take names.

I'm hoping season 2 will show up on netflix. Blacklist and Crossing Lines are my favorite shows. Characters seem more real than in other similar shows, and not so over-acted.

I knew I was going to like the Blacklist as soon as the 1st previews & it hasn't disappointed me yet! Just when you think you've got a few more pieces of the puzzle...boom! Red pulls the rug right out from under your feet. Having said that, there was that interaction between Red & Lizzie's father that looked like a little piece of the cat was kinda out of the bag that might help answer one looming question.

Not much to add. Great writing, good acting, stellar main characters. Each episode could almost be a stand-alone. Reminds me somewhat of the characters of Alias except in this one he is not killed and a double. And in Alias it was the Roommate who was the double. All in all, though, one amazing season.
