FTA-TV The Blacklist

[happy_eagle]

I sure hope the whole bus crash disguised as an operation thing wasn't meant to be subtle

Back today.

 

[mandy]

That was one of the most confusing episodes I've ever watched. And I've been here since the start. So yeah, that's saying something.....

(Plus Dembe only had 3 words. So that sucked too.)

 

[drd23]

What was confusing about it?

 

[mandy]

So Navabi is a spy? And everyone (except Aram) is ok with that?? It was a weird episode.

 

[gaskin]

Navabi is first and foremost a Mosad agent who is 'on loan' to the FBI. If there is a Mosad op going on and she is a part of it, she has no obligation to tell them. Aram is just a whiny little bitch now.

Well that got corrected the following week at least.

 

[mandy]

True. But maybe he said too much. I'm scared for him.

 

[gaskin]

They won't kill off Dembe but if Liz says anything to Red then he'll be in a bit of s**t. I'm wondering how long they'll wait to bring Mr Kaplan back in.

 

[mandy]

Are we to believe that recently Liz was all over the news as an FBI most wanted terrorist who is then exonerated by the President, is not recognised by any of those women??? It wasn't that long ago she couldn't go to the grocery store without getting beaten up!

And those park scenes with Ressler were weird. At least pretend to be talking on your mobile phones to look less dodgy.

 

[gaskin]

I think that is part of how Emma knew who she was but I agree it was stupid. It should have been Samar going undercover.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

So is it blindingly obvious to everyone else who's conspiring against Red?

Mr Kaplan ?

Anyone going to watch the Blacklist spinoff being set up about Tom finding out about his parents with his mum and young Michael Jackson?

 

[gaskin]

I'll give the spin off a go but I don't know how good it will be.

 

[mandy]

I'll give it a go because Tom is hot.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

I'll give the spin off a go but I don't know how good it will be.

Ditto, don't have particularly high hopes but we'll see.

 

[gaskin]

I wasn't expecting Dembe but I think that makes it pretty clear who is behind the attack on Red.


Now to check out the spin-off.

 

[gaskin]

I quite liked the spin-off pilot.

 

[Elixuh]

They seem to have toned back the lady a bit. When she was in the main show her acting basically mirrored Spader. Would have been too much.

As soon as Red said his operation was under attack a few eps ago it was clear who it was...especially seeing as though they followed her character each episode and then abruptly stopped.

 

[happy_eagle]

I guess the warnings have been there with Dembe throughout the season, disagreeing with Red.
Still think it was a bit much trying to off Red. Seemed out of character for Dembe to orchestrate something like that, no matter how much he though Red had lost his way.

 

[gaskin]

He wasn't the mastermind behind that.

I don't think he poisoned Red - he dropped him off at the hospital thingy. More points to, he knows Kapland is alive and poisoned Red and is going to find her + he knows Red will think he poisoned him.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Urgh, I forgot Solomon was coming back for the spinoff.

Between him and that IT specialist character it's going to be tough to watch at times.

 

[drd23]

I don't mind Solomon. I actually thought that Scottie was worse

Maybe it was just edited that way, but it looked like he knew about the poison as Red was drinking the scotch
