Telly’s Take
Once NBC’s biggest drama series, The Blacklist is down in the ratings again this season. With four full seasons, The Blacklist will have enough episodes for a decent syndication package. However, it still performs reasonably well on a tough night. Word is that NBC will likely renew the show for a fifth season.
5/11 update: NBC has renewed The Blacklist for a fifth season. Details here.

What do you think? Do you watch The Blacklist on NBC? Are you glad that NBC has renewed The Blacklist for season five? If the network had cancelled this TV show, would you miss it?
My husband and I look forward to The Black List every week and are sincerely hoping that there will be a season 5. – There are too many unanswered questions !! – The writers of this show are just plain awesome –
OMG! So good! I love Reddington!
Glad to see that The Blacklist has been renewed. The writing and acting is top notch. I look forward to season 5.
Yes glad they’ve renewed it. The ratings should include how many episodes are recorded to DVR. Not doing so is unfair to both the show and viewers. Most people have to get up early for work and staying up late to watch a favorite show is not possible.
So glad Blacklist has been renewed. Look forward to Thursday nights. Wish it was on at 9 instead of 10.
im so in love with redding hes the best actor ever i love this show please bring it back.
RENEW
