Maybe I'm just spoiled by Breaking Bad. All other TV shows seem kinda boring and uninteresting by comparison. I also tried to watch Sleepy Hollow last night. Couldn't hold my attention.
I still had BB on my mind last night, so much so, I completely forgot, The List aired Monday. Oh well, I catch it on line. I did manage to remember, Sleepy Hollow, was on, because they aired the commercial for it on the AMC channel.

Default The Blacklist

Caught the 1st episode last night and think this has potential to be a great series. I am amazed at the acting ability of James Spader, he is fantastic. I can't think of a role he has taken, where he hasn't been exceptional. He may get an emmy for this one. The female FBI agent is also perfect in this role. (or is she CIA?)
Even fat n round, there is something very sexy about Spader.

I quite enjoyed it as well.

I wonder if the pen in the neck is going to become a "thing."
That young woman has a good facade, but I think she might be just a tad unhinged her own self.

Please start threads with the name of the program, so I don't start another thread on the same topic. I did a search and this didn't come up. Anyway, this was my comment.

I just tried a search for "blacklist" and "the blacklist" and this thread came up for each.

Maybe the Search doesn't work. It should have brought up this.

If she isn't unhinged now she will be when she finds out the truth about her past, no doubt.

Do you suppose it might turn out that Red is her father?

Personally it is driving me crazy how they are ripping from other movies. This last episode took the music and the hat from The Thomas Crown Affair. Wonder if that will be a thing too.

^^^That apparently didn't worry too many of us; it finished #12 in the ratings with 12,600,000 viewers, seven slots ahead of 'Castle' in the same time slot, with 1,100,000 more viewers.
