Are you going to watch the Blacklist Redemption?


Goody 2 hours of the blacklist tonight.

Currently watching it now. Had an ongoing suspicion that Dembe was behind the poisoning of Reddington, but do hope that NBC will renew "The Blacklist" because I would hate to see Dembe get away without facing the consequences.

As for "...Redemption" so far it feels like a half scripted version of the primary show....but we'll see what happens as time goes on. On that note, I do have a feeling that this mini-series will tie into a possible Season 5, though.

Dembe? guilty? Aw man I don't want to think that. Red doesn't realize Kate's alive. Darn 6 weeks until it returns.

I hear you!

Yeah I know....it feels so far away! Speaking of which, before the IMDB message boards closed, there were some people over there (myself included, being a longtime IMDB user before coming here after the message boards closed down) that thought maybe Red knew that Mr. Kaplan was still alive when he talked about the feeling of possibly being followed or spied on a few episodes back while in a restaurant as he gazed toward the window. But you never know!

As for "Blacklist: Redemption" I suppose it's not bad so far, but it feels like a half-written version of its parent show. Maybe it will get better as time goes on....as I heard that "Redemption" only contains eight episodes. To me, it appears that they are only using this show as filler time, anyway, until "The Blacklist" (hopefully) returns in April. Whether it does well or not, however, remains to be seen.

Red doesn't know Kate is alive. If I remember right Dembe has brought up her name several times in the past few weeks. I want to say guilt was the reason he has been thinking about her. Maybe not guilt?? Grrrrr There's a word I'm searching for but dang I can't get it.

I'm still wondering what will happen between Kate and Red as well. I've always had thoughts about Kate sneaking up on him when he least expects it...or at least hiring somebody to get revenge on him. Heck, when Red was poisoned, I immediately started to think about the possibility of Kate being connected to that too. But Dembe's involvement really caught me off guard! Perhaps he is looking to leave the area or even the country based off the final scene of the episode!

I guess this proves that even the most loyal sometimes prove to be the most cunning of enemies.

The short answer would be no. I'm only still watching The Blacklist because of Spader. The man could entertain me by reading a laundry list.
