What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the NBC television network, The Blacklist stars James Spader, Megan Boone, Diego Klattenhoff, Amir Arison, Hisham Tawfiq and Harry Lennix. The crime drama centers on one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives, Raymond “Red” Reddington (Spader), who offers to help the authorities if a specific rookie agent, Elizabeth Keen (Boone), partners with him. In season seven, Red finds himself alone in hostile territory, surrounded by old enemies and possibly new allies. He must stay one step ahead of the Blacklist’s most dangerous criminal, who will stop at nothing to unearth the very truth Red wants no one to know about. To find it, Katarina will insinuate herself into Liz’s life, who has finally reunited with her daughter Agnes. Katarina’s presence will bring danger to Liz’s doorstep and forever alter her relationship with Red.
Season Seven Ratings
The seventh season of The Blacklist averaged a 0.55 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 4.26 million viewers. Compared to season six, that’s down by 3% in the demo and up by 7% in viewership. Find out how The Blacklist stacks up against other NBC TV shows.
The Blacklist has been renewed for an eighth season which will debut November 13, 2020. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will NBC cancel or renew The Blacklist for season eight? The ratings continue to sink but I suspect it will still be renewed — as long as Spader wants to continue. When it’s time to end the show, I think NBC will renew the series and announce it as a final season. For now, I’ll keep an eye on the ratings and update this page with breaking developments.

What do you think? Are you glad that The Blacklist TV show has been renewed for an eighth season? How would you feel if NBC had cancelled this TV series, instead?
Too much Agent Keen!
Go back to catching criminals and don’t make about her. She has backstabbed her fellow agents and caused people to lose everything and some die while she abandons her morals and job duties.
She leaves her child for long periods and puts her in danger.
I think Keen is the reason for audience drop.
Go back to original stories.
One of my favorites.I just love Raymond Reddington character. I hope it can go to 10 seasons.

I am incredibly grateful for everyone dedicating so much time and effort to this series. I received an incurable cancer diagnosis and this series has made me so happy to watch. I watched from season 1 episode 1 till season 7 episode 4 over the course of 2 weeks and I could watch another 7 seasons. This story line is my escape from my real life, so much so that I found myself previewing future episodes just to make sure certain characters were still alive. I know, a moment of weakness, but I just cannot help it. Thank you for… Read more »
