James Spader: The Blacklist

I don't usually make calls on new TV shows but I think this will be a success. The last one I felt this strongly about was Seinfeld. lol The scene I saw where Spader turns himself in at FBI headquarters was phenomenal.
 
if the movies Silence of the Lambs and The Rock were to meet and fuck, this turd of a show would slither out.

 
Well I must admit that the relationship that Reddington has with the female FBI agent does give off a bit of the Lechter/Clarisse vibe but I think it will be more like the Anti-Jack Bauer.
 
Since The Newsroom is in hiatus and Jeebus knows when season 3 is going to happen, I may as well check this one out.
 
A reasonably entertaining premiere. The "Silence of the Lambs" vibe, while present, is not overpowering and Megan Boone is hot. I'll keep watching.
 
I was not disappointed and Megan Boone is smoking hot. I noticed right away that she is a girl. A question: The twist last night was that her husband is a Serbian terrorist? I thought I still saw him in the clips for next weeks show. I also think that another twist that is coming is that Reddington is somehow related to Keen or at least has ties to her ******.
 
I really enjoyed it!! I'm thinking the clips showing her husband may be flashbacks? If Reddington ends up being related to her I will give you a dollar. It could go that direction but I personally would like to keep it on the Hannibal/Clarice type relationship than turn it into a long lost blah blah relative. That being said however, the possibilities for sub-plots/backstory if they did end up being related would be endless. I think it will turn out well either way and will continue watching.
 
When I saw the clips with her husband in future episodes I, for whatever reason, thought the dynamic is going to be that she can't let him know that she knows he's a bad guy for some reason. Friends close, enemies closer deal. So they go on living together and it's really awkward.
 
I'm not sure if a whale's vag is classy but if it is, only because they can make perfume out of it. Big and classy. And slippery.
 
In my head that was a lot funnier then the way it came out. Ron Burgundy is classy>Stay classy San Diego>San Diego means a whales vagina....I may or may not have been a couple of mimosas in when I posted that.
