Is this worth my time? I have seen some cutscenes online and it seem like something interesting, however 10 seasons with 22eps each scares me
>>220540130It gets very retarded, very, very fast. The snippets you seen on YouTube are the only good bits. There's a reason it's only ever clips of Red and Dembe and no one else in the show.
>>220540130Doesn't the lead actor start lean and becomes a fat fuck towards the final season
if you can just watch the scenes with spader, it's ok. after like the third or fourth season, it's very repetitive.>>220540314he got fatter as the show went on. as he's gotten older, he's clearly become more interested in indulging in food and drink than exercising.
>>220540130I started it a few weeks ago after seeing shorts of Reddington on youtube.I can confirm >>220540210 James Spader makes the whole show.Lost interest halfway through. I guess I'll just rewatch Persons of Interest instead.
I also only have seen youtube shorts where he cold-kills random people for "muh autistic honor" reasons, seems cringe
>>220540130>Is this worth my time?Your time is not valuable.
There’s a giga pozzed twist that even Reddit hated and it pretty much destroys the series. It’ll make everything feel like a waste of time. I’m glad I didn’t get too invested in it
>>220540487spoiler it for us. I'm betting a negress becomes her protege or something
>>220540130Complete garbage, one of the worst examples of Obamareich slopOnly watch if you have pathological obsession with James Spader and even then you'd be better off watching youtube clips and interviews
>>220540525supposedly, reddington is really keen's mother who had a very good sex change 30 years ago. they never actually confirm it though.
grotesque and horrendous
>>220540598lmao, thanks for that, I now will 100000% never watch this shit
>>220540591>one of the worst examples of Obamareich slopIt would be a good theme to the thread, to discuss how late 00s/mid 10s series slop lowered the quality of shows to what we have now.Didn't watch Blacklist, but I've heard similar things about Lie To Me, back when it just ended.
>>220540130It's reddit: the show.Spader's charisma carries it, but even he starts becoming annoying.
>>220540704tbqh, it was more annoying how they kept teasing they would reveal reddington's true identity "next season" but never actually doing it.
Ending spoiler
>>220540130First 2.5 seasons are kino. It rapidly loses the plot after that but Spader is fantastic throughout. The S8 finale is a decent stopping point if you don’t want to go all the way. S9-10 have their moments but it’s practically a different show
>>220540130The girl made it unwatchable.
>>220540875I googled what happened and....even more keks. Did it happen because he is "red"? lol
>>220540746Blacklist is sort of Ryan Murphy tierThere's a weird air to 2010's mainstream media, because it was all made by psychotic gays I guessLike the last normal human beings had finally been fired and there was just total alien vibes to everything, you even see it in sitcoms like The Good Place, you're constantly left wondering whether any of the writers had actually met a human being beforeEverything slightly off
>>220540875What's with the shoe
>>220540746>>220541471>>220540934Samefagging, piggybacking: the girl is another feature of Obamaworld mediaGirlboss-approved stories always have a tough badass female lead who inexplicably garners the respect and undying loyalty of a competent older man despite never evincing any competence or likeability herself, this is now extremely common trope (crops up in new Meet the Parents for instance)I think possibly this mirrors the experience of the girlboss in life, I learned recently they all have "mentors" (a boomer that promotes them unwarrantedly)
>>220541500You mess with the bull, you get the shoe horn
>>220540130Watching The Blacklist and then New Amsterdam was pretty funny
