So many things to get angry about with her but my biggest gripe with her is how shit a mum she has been to Agnes. Just got to the end of series 5 and it literally seems like she forgot she has a kid.

She seems to have only spent a couple of days or at most a few weeks in her company but then spends the rest of her time running around doing moronic things instead of what a real person would.

Hi all I've recently started researching the blacklist after stopping a couple season in when it first came out and I've came to a theory.

Alan shore in Boston legal was a charismatic off the cuff lived in the grey type of guy now let's say after we last see him he happens to fly too close to the sun and looses his license to practice law and let's just say it's because of a high profile incident.

Now if I'm leaving Boston I want to go to a similar big city but I can't go straight there I need to go and hide out in a smaller city maybe an hour or two away so let's say Alan ends up in Scranton Pennsylvania and through his law contacts obtains a new identity that of Robert California and quickly identifies a way to immerse himself in corporate America yet again and has a quick in to New York City.

Now when we last see Robert California he's leaving Dunder Mifflin to go to Europe to "rescue russian ballet dancers" now let's say poor Robert goes with his investment from David and goes to Russia and gets into some hairy situations and uses his legal and corporate contacts to get out of these situations and is forced into some pretty dark situations and adapts and discovers he has a talent for this sort of thing and re invents himself as

Raymond Reddington.

This is my thesis on the Spader Verse

This is about the character, not the actor.

I think Glen is hilarious, no one else pushes Red's buttons like Glen does. Red is not gullible but can never read Glen. 😂 His appearances are always welcome and make dark moments seem so light.

Modern Day Cowboy. Tesla. Thoughts?

Love that Red died on his own terms but I miss him/her already!

Do you think Jon Bokenkamp, the creator of the show, or James Spader will ever provide the true answers to these questions?

Neither one has a puzzle box with a picture as a reference of what they're trying to put together.

In both cases, the puzzles themselves will reveal the true picture as they go along putting the pieces together.

Someone could an edit winner takes it all music with Raymond?

So the congress guy that is asking for the name of the informant/mole. Why is he asking the old lady he knows Raymond is the informant already? He knows the name of the mole.

Is he just trying to figure out if they found the other mole?

Hear me out. I've watched the show multiple times, and with every time I finished, I'm convinced that Red was never actually dying. Maybe he was injured or rescued but never died.

What makes my assumptions is that Red never had a normal life with his wife Katarina, who she was KGB spy and even when the incident happened and the fire start katarina tried to rescue him but she fail then she run away .

Let assume he/she was liz mother ( this theory that I hate ). In the end, she didn't even save her daughter and maybe put liz and Agnes in danger just to figure out the truth.

Also, the relationship between Red and liz was strong. it felt like natural to me since he missed so much time when she was not close to him 💔.

Btw I HATE LIZ SO MUCH 🙄, After what Raymond did, she started to treat him like garbage and lied to him, and even how many attempts to kill him and in the end she got shot from behind 🙄.

A person of her talent in mossad... gotta be quite a lot.

My man Ressler I love you 🫡

Hi all!

I just finished watching POI, and I’m starting The Blacklist today. Is there anything or anyone I should pay attention to? 😂 I don’t mind spoilers!

I've lost the count on how many times I've seen her knocked out, disarmed, kidnapped, rushing without backup. S1E1 Elizabeth Keen would have profiled Keen from rest of the series unfit for duty.

Spader was absolutely amazing this episode the pure emotion in his voice when he talked about dembe to Geoff was just a chefs kiss

The face when she has her teeth out, my hate for her reaches the peak. I don’t have enough curse words for her. I hated her throughout the series and my hate reached its peak in seasons 7 & 8. I think most of us here agree that she’s the worst writer character of all time. Last person I hated so much was Todd from breaking bad but Elizabeth surpasses him.

I won’t discuss the details about the scene since I don’t wanna spoil anyone, but elizabeth keeps annoying me and I’m halfway through season 7. I thought it might end but its been the same since episode 1🤦🏻‍♂️

Am I the only one who does the “Leo pointing” meme every time Ultron does or says something that reminds me of Reddington? Two examples:

- in the first episode, Ultron in his human avatar says he’s more of a hat guy.

- during this week’s episode, they have to save a scientist named Katerina.

I know everything in the show’s not intentional, but I just can’t help but think of Red all the time.

I love James Spader and finally got around to watching the Blacklist. Currently a couple episodes in to season 8.

I’ve shook my head at some of the storylines, but I’m find Keen more and more unlikable. Reddington is evil, but has a personality. At this point she has no redeeming features at this point. I can’t understand why the task force is still supporting her; she’s almost making it unwatchable.

I’ve heard some spoilers for the season and I’m wondering if I will continue.

I have become so thoroughly annoyed with Elizabeth's character that I'm actually looking forward to how that story ends. Never had a show manage to get me to severely dislike a main character that wasn't even a "villain."
