There's only one reason - and one reason only - that I continue to watch this show, with it's silly, improbable, convoluted plot lines and crazy, uneven acting: James Spader. The guy is just a joy to watch and has consistently given a brilliant performance.
Agree. The show is mostly a mess with little character development and way too much gunslinging. Spader more than salvages it however, which is a testament to his craft and genius.
I love Red and Dembe's bonding. Love the show..Infact all actors have done such a good job...it seems that it's happening in Real. Eagerly waiting for Season 8.
It was really so sad that Liz died at the end. Please I love blacklist but I was waiting that Mr Redington and Liz and demby and Agnes will live together happily ever after. 😢
Wann kann ich diese Serien bei uns im deutschen m TV wieder sehen, war immer sehr spannend. Und auf welchen Kanal wird es ausgestrahlt. Ich warte schon sehnsüchtig darauf. Danke euch
Im addicted to Blacklist. Love James Spader the older he gets the more handsome he gets. Love Dembe how he looks after him and also Aran hes always respected Red besides the one time he was angry at him for hiding his gf. Cant wait for season9.
Es la serie más favorita desde el 2012 2013 lo seguí perdí 😔 pero desde2020y 2021 lo ví hasta el final de la sextima temporada me quedé impresionada me gustó mucho y me sigue gustando la dectetive Liz y el sr Red los dos son únicos los amo
I have bumped into Jimmy Fallon, The Law & Order crew, The Cash Cab guy and few more on New York streets, hoping the same for The Black Listers one day...
1 thing i hate/love about this video; i was hoping they didnt ask what Red whispered to Kirk..cz i really want to know..any possible line what it is or maybe will we ever know what Red whispered..
Has anyone noticed that when Liz did a dna test it was on the man they know as Reddington (whoever he really is) he is her actual father not some guy that is dead from the past. How are the writers missing such an obvious detail in the story??
DNA test was taken from a bloody shirt back when he was in the navy and knew Cooper. This was before the fire and before Liz shot him as a child..and before plastic surgery to make him RR if you believe that part.
How wonderful that would be, if a Romatic story as such, could, if not exist. Nevertheless, this makes a good Series hay. Maybe to someone, if not EVERYONE, would this evalute someone, on some level.
Well, Red made her go that route. Thousand times Dembe told him to tell Liz all but he doesn't want to. He prefers her to believe anything and then learn by herself it was wrong again and again. He's her real father, then not, then yes, then he killed her father, but he's not, then he's not even Red, but it's Ilya, but then isn't either... All instead of telling her, even if that means getting everyone she loves killed. Who remains? Ressler and Cooper? Will they die too for knowing too much? Then Liz will just turn into some psychopath, killing everyone like Katarina. Great future Red gave her...
Diego/Donald is just delicious. I've been madly in love with character for 7 years, although he took a few episodes to grow on me! But he's magic! I love his development, his loyalty, bravery, his self sacrifice, his dedication to helping people and making the world safer for families. Also he's gorgeous 😍
I have watched money heist , prison break , twelve monkey, jett, lost in space, homeland, the boys, killing eve, swamp thing, jack Ryan and many more series but the character red and Elizabeth keen man this is the only reason I watched the whole series 4 times man I loved this show very much ....
I'm i the only one who like Glen? I love Glen on Red's nerves and he seems to be the only one who can get on his nerves. Boy! I love Red! I honestly expand my vocabulary and also try to incorporate his expressions in my regular conversations. How silly 😜
I love the minds of these writers the actors are amazing and it's incredible to watch over and over. The Reddington Charter hold up and allows the others to shine it's an awesome group of actors. I love the story the drama the action and adventure a real suspense. Thanks to them all.
James spader is absolutely fantastic as red! His mannerisms, his comedic timing is brilliant! I love how he tells little stories before he fucks someone up! So addicted to blacklist
No. I feel the same way. I found myself screaming at the computer like, "Girl! This man has saved your ass on more that 25,000 occasions. You don't trust him enough yet to listen?!" LOL!
Nope. I find her too hard and stiff as an actress and she seems too stupid at times. In other words I lose belief in the character. I am not convinced of her realness as the person
I've been watching alot of movies and TV Series since I was a child. I aslo admired alot of actors and actresses for how genuinely n greatly they played their roles, but never ever saw someone who could play a role as greatly as possible like James Spader while playing Raymond Reddington
My favorite line/scene in the series: Scottie Hargrave (Tom's mother) is sitting in a warehouse waiting for Red to be delivered as she thinks that she's just successfully kidnapped him. But, Red has outsmarted her and there's a shootout inside the building. Once Red's team has secured the building, Red is waiting for the industrial sized garage door opener to raise up to give him a big surprise "reveal". But, much to his chagrin, it takes forever for the darn thing to roll up: "God that door is slow! I was hoping for a somewhat more dramatic entrance but what the hell." Red's facial expressions, his tone of voice and body language...I could watch that scene a thousand times and it would still be just as funny!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, i thought she was gone for good in season 8, why on earth u put her back WHY. Liz is the worse actor ever. Even the lady who pretended to be liz is a billion times better then this real liz. Omg she is so bad, she cant cry, she does not know when to smile. And her useless smirk. OMG. i thought she left already, the show was billion times better when they were not showing her. OMG i cant take her acting. Everything, tone, expression, walk and wtc, you name is she is not good at it. It is so funny how some people blame the writing, but why when that actor played her so called role, she was a billion times better. So it's not the writing, it's just the actor is so so bad. I cant take it
James Spader easily joins Hugh Laurie (''House") and Bryan Cranston (''Breaking Bad") as the best, most talented and electrifying lead actors in a TV series so far in this Century. Personally I think Cranston had the edge as the most talented between the 3 in their respective series IMHO, but DAMN they're all great anyway! Can't think of another utterly fantastic lead actor in a TV series since the year 2000, but feel free to chime in if you have another one...But he/she has to be gooooood ;)
Love this show love the cast and they are fabulous together! Develop if red is Donald’s father? Get red together with hardgrave! Get Liz and Ressler together please
Who was in the dufflebag ? What did Raymond say to Alexander Kirk ? If Raymond isn't the real Raymond how could he know all the things , and why would he care so much about Elizabeth ? Note : in the early seasons we see that Raymond has a fire scar in his back
The only show I watch. I do not watch tv but 3 years ago someone suggested I watch it. I watched the first season and haven’t stopped since!! Absolutely the most superbly written show for tv that I’ve ever watched in my 50 years!! Please do not end this show!!!!!!ever!!!!
First off SPOILER ALERT for those who havent watched the Blacklist all the way through....That being said, i absolutely love Red!! His humor, charisma, and his intensity are just perfect. James Spader is my current obsession in the best way. His acting skills are superb and i love his voice(who doesnt?) Many others have said the same but hes the only reason i watch the show.... I will always love the Blacklist. Its plot twists and their ability to keep us always guessing made it great. However, I feel like it could have been a lot better for several reasons. This is where i have to rant lol... First of all, Liz. UGH.. Least favorite character with Ressler being 2nd. They both preached one thing but acted the opposite. She was so frustrating to watch and she could have been an amazing character but was completely ruined. i personally hated her as the seasons progressed. Her entitlement to know the truth whether it was her business or not ticked me off the most i think. I could have strangled her every time the words "i deserve" came out of her mouth...Also seeing her act like she cared for Red just to betray him repeatedly is the worst too. Which would have been fine if in the end Red turned against her (which honestly i half expected after the whole prison ordeal) and they battle each other so to speak then her die somehow like the other blacklisters. Fine by me, great even. Red could then mourn her loss but realize she wasnt who she once was and she couldn't be trusted. But to have her betray him and then him just keep caring and even wanting her to take over his empire is so incredibly dumb in my opinion. Red has ZERO tolerance for traitors, it makes no sense for him to still trust her even the tiniest bit. She almost got him killed and it didnt seem to even matter. he'd get hurt/angry but 2 episodes later theyd be fine again..Marvin was right, she wasnt worthy. Its like the writers couldnt decide what they wanted her to do. She would supposedly love him one min and hate/distrust him the next instead of evolving into one or the other. That was most disappointing.. Alternatively, Liz overcoming her past to trust and care for Red and eventually become his "heir" after this death would have been fine too... 2nd big thing was trying to make Red=katarina, i refuse to accept it, worst idea ever. Plenty of better options/storylines....Lastly, I cant bring myself to watch it yet but i already know how everything ends....i dont think my heart can take it lol... i wished for a much different ending. I always had the feeling he would die but i REALLY hoped instead he would simply outsmart everyone (as Red does) fake his death and disappear into the sunset with some beauty on his arm to live out the rest of his days. Their ending was unsatisfactory for many viewers and i wish they would just redo the last say....3 seasons 😂 like start at beginning season 8 and change it,but sadly I know that wont happen.
I have this theory that he is actually the real Reddington and didn't die in the fire (remember he has burn scars) . And I swear to god if that isn't true I will be fuming!!!! I just can't imagine any other plot twist that would be so perfect. It is the ONLY fitting explanation!
the other (dead) Reddington is someone who took his place and is actually the father of Jennifer. That is why he doesn't love her. She isn't his daughter. Change my mind.
