quote:It looks like NBC has decided to finally send a little spinoff love somewhere other than Dick Wolf’s Chicago Whatever series for once, as Deadline is reporting that the network is developing a spinoff to its hit drama series The Blacklist. Details about the spinoff are pretty light, but it will star Famke Janssen in a role similar to the one that James Spader’s Raymond “Red” Reddington plays on vanilla Blacklist, which is to say that she’ll probably be a bad lady who wears a hat and uses her bad lady knowledge to help good people stop other bad people. Janssen’s character will be named Susan “Scottie” Halsted, because nicknames are required in the Blacklist universe, and she’ll work with The Blacklist’s Ryan Eggold (Tom) in the same way that Spader’s character works with Megan Boone’s Liz in the normal show. Deadline also says that The Blacklist’s Edi Gathegi (he plays Matias Solomon) will also make the jump to the new show if it gets picked up. It's like NBC don't understand the appeal of The Blacklist at all. The Blacklist without Spader? Pass.

I could go for a show where we follow a grown-up Sydney Bristow character who isn't constantly having to rely on Mommy and Daddy (or her love interest) to save her when she gets in over her head (which sounds familiar). Famke could very much pull off a Carmen Sandiego style show...the more likely eventuality is NBC fucks it up. It does speak volumes that 'Tom' will factor in heavily in the new show.

"Evil Black Guy's going to steal a nuke! Quick, tell General Air Force Guy about it!" "gently caress you, how we transport our cock analogs is no one's business, least of all yours." "But the bad guys say they know your first convoy is a decoy, even though the safest way to move the loving thing would be in a plane." "No one steals our dongs! And no, we can't transport it by plane because in this universe, nukes utilizing weapons-grade material evidently send out a shitload of ~deadly radiation~, so that's why we plan on transporting it on the NJ Turnpike...a heavily-traveled section of I-95 where you're almost assured of traffic snarls."

My favorite part was them driving past the incoming cops at the end. "Hey Walter, reports of shots fired from the church just up ahead, should we pull over that car with 'just married' on the off chance they were involved?" "Shut they gently caress up Donnie, no one gets married in a church these days!"

I was so ready to come in here and talk about how lovely this episode was but I couldn't stop laughing at the last 10 minutes. It's like this show is some kind of love letter to the worst of network broadcasting.

This episode featured Boz; this episode is good. I do have a question, though, why is the amazing Spader-man is always outgunned? Red is a super-criminal, right? Why is it he only seems to have about half as many gunmen as he needs to win any given fight? I know that the real answer is ~DRAMA~ but has the show ever paused to give some one-off excuse for why Red only has, like, two or three henchmen?

I don't think reddington ever needed that much muscle. He is more of a broker of information and favors. I guess he can scrounge up some mercs in a moments notice, but his funding probably isn't near as substantial as the people/groups he's fighting. Also, Boz is an amazing badass.

Well, also, he only figured out what was going on when it was all but too late. Chances are, he just couldn't scrounge up the needed muscle in time. Mr. Bad Guy, on the other hand, had a big head start.

So, what are the odds that Lizzy is actually dead? My guess is somewhere between 0% and 0.01%.

The Fixer lady who chided Red for being the source of Lizie's problems never left her side except for the van ride. I'm guessing she went rogue and injected her with some crazy Blacklist fake death formula, maybe working with Tom on it, maybe just doing her own thing because she's a fuggin' boss. She had possession of her body at the end.

Please be dead please be dead please be really dead. Keen being dead would not only revitalize this show, but it would get rid of one of the two main sources of horrible side drama.

If Keen is dead, the show becomes Raymond Reddington: Revengeance, and that is something that everyody probably wants to see. Edit: Just realized I forgot to spoil this originally; correction has been made. Gonz fucked around with this message at 12:17 on Apr 15, 2016 |

The only thing that makes me think she isn't dead (well, aside from knowledge of how most network television works) is Raymond's whole "no morgue, let our people handle this" bit. That and the very showy "fainting spell" thing he did struck me as suspicious. I do kind of hope she is dead for real, even if I have no idea what the structure of the show would be at that point. It would provide a smoother exit for Tom if he goes to star on the spinoff. Except for the baby, I suppose.

"We had to fake her death so the people hunting LIzzie would stop" is hard to believe because there were many moments where Red, the doctor and Mr Kaplan were emoting only for the camera - or for us. And Red thought he could protect her so when did he come up with that plan, to have her get in a car accident, get hurt, have emergency birth surgery when she was supposed to be getting married, etc ? Before going to the church?! And, she'd still be off the show. They can't fake her death and then have her turn up at work the next week.

Guess I'll spoiler. She's easily the weakest character in the show but there's no way she's actually dead. Definitely going with the "She faked her death in order to fool either the FBI, Raymond, her mom, or all of the above." I'm leaning toward the "Raymond's sidekick faked it to get her away from him" as being the most plausible. She could have even hired the goons to hit the church to fool everyone.

Gonz posted:They could pull a "Landfill" and introduce her mysterious twin sister into the show. I would be OK with this if, and only if, they did it pretty much exactly like they did in the movie. Maybe with just a bit of extra emphasis on "... and we will never talk about me replacing her again; let's just go forward acting like I'm her because she never died." Then, we wouldn't see the real Lizzy until the scene switches to London during Sweeps. ("Sweeps" is what the English call "spring cleaning" in England!)

I saw a little internet blurb just now that told me former American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson (remember her?) just had another child. The child's name? Remington Alexander Blackstock. I'm 90% certain that kid is a member of the Blacklist. Because that's a name from this show if I ever did hear one.

Remington Alexander Blackstock is definitely a shadowy arms dealer that does business with any government for a price.
