So, with the second season about to kick off in around 30 Minutes, I'm sorta surprised to see that this show has yet to have a discussion about it going. So, to correct this mistake, I now open it up.
Meet Raymond "Red" Reddington. He is on the FBI's Most Wanted List, and he has just turned himself in... to the FBI. He's here for one reason and one reason only. He has people he would like to see snuffed out. A list of people actually. A Blacklist. Problem is, he refuses to work with anyone with the exception of one person.
Meet Elizabeth Keen. Recently appointed as a criminal profiler, her rank has been seriously upgraded due to the request of the FBI. Of course the only reason why the FBI want her in such a high role is because they were requested to do so by none other than our own Raymond Reddington.
Together, they will work with the FBI to bring down some of the worst criminals the FBI has ever heard of. And even some they don't. Truths will be revealed, secrets will be kept, and trust will never be so easy to come by again.
Now enough with the summary, onto emotions. I saw a two minute ad on YouTube (that basically gave away the entire first episode) and thought that the premise was interesting so I decided to check it out. James Spader as the criminal mastermind Red Reddington was excellently cast and he preforms the role with as much skill as Raymond does with dispatching with those on the Blacklist.
I just love the sheer charisma and snake-like charm that James Spader lets Raymond Reddington ooze with. He's both utterly noble, and utterly despicable. The kindest man you'll meet, and the most evil. Has the grace of God, but the taintedness of the Devil. James Spader's acting is good to the highest degree.
Megan Boone also does a great job in the whole thing as a novice thrust into the world of the ultra criminal and the character herself definitely gets to shine more and more as truths are revealed and her character definitely grows and develops as she gets herself into more dangerous territory.
So, with all that being said, I hope that other Rangerboarders here enjoy this show as well, and who knows? Maybe this conversation will go somewhere.
Just be careful. Or you might find yourself on... The Blacklist. Oh, and one more thing. Beware of Berlin. Have fun.
The Blacklist can be found on the American Cable Network, NBC at 10:00PM/9:00PM Central after The Voice.
