The Blacklist is an American drama series that premiered on NBC on September 23, 2013. It stars James Spader, Megan Boone, and Harry Lennix. The pilot was written by Jon Bokenkamp and directed by Joe Carnahan

Former government agent Raymond "Red" Reddington (James Spader) has eluded capture for decades. But he suddenly surrenders to the FBI with an offer to help catch a terrorist under the condition that he speaks only to Elizabeth "Liz" Keen (Megan Boone), a young FBI profiler who's just barely out of Quantico.

One criminal mastermind. One rookie agent. First thing comes to mind: TheSilence of the Lambs.

can't even be compared to this classic movie (it's an insult to Silence, if u insist on comparing them both). the pilot ep just had too many loopholes. also they made the good guys just too darn stupid so that the bad guys can look somewhat "intelligent" which they are not and are totally predictable. i give it 2/10, one of the worst start to a series i have ever experienced.

^ What you've said is right, but I don't think there is anything comparable on tv right now so I'll continue watching it. I don't think its 'one of the worst' pilots though.

it was so-so. maybe i watch the 2nd episode i have a free time. if they make it one terrorist per episode, ill definitely drop it.

the bad guy seem to know everything, the FBI seem so stupid. which very unrealistic.

the worst part is, if the guys at FBI watches any kind of Hollywood movies, they should know better than to do what they did to fall into that super obvious trap (this is NOT a spoiler btw, if u watch the pilot, u will guess everything correctly)

I like it. Not really a 'police' show, but they're there also. If you watched Lost, you'll see a familiar face there.

Still following the series...

For me, one criminal in one episode is just a filler for main plot which is Lizzy, husband, Reddington & Lizzy's father.

only real reason to keep watching is to know why red picked lizzy. so far he's being some sort of a father figure to lizzy. otherwise not much.

btw, u must watch person of interest especially if u love batman. really reminds me of batman. jim caviezal should've been batman.

Nice show. Theres refence to Kuala Lumpur in one early episode. Then in General Ludd, quiet a long reference to Malaysia. ...Red even mentioned the monkeys at Batu Caves are very mischevious...Lol. At least he read 'Batu' correctly.

The Show is still strongly implying red is Lizzie's dad.
But I hope there we'll get a curve ball in the end.

i really hope they wrap things up by season 3. The pacing for season 2 is much better, as in more plots have been revealed.


I sure hope that they aren't planning to drag the series for as long as they can.

U just starting to watch the series. Now in S4.

Why so many reference to Kuala Lumpur? One mention of Pulau Belitong.

This series finances by Finas? 🤔
