The Blacklist is nearing its end. NBC has announced that the final season of the long-running thriller series will move from Sundays to Thursday nights next month.
Starring James Spader, Diego Klattenhoff, Hisham Tawfiq, Anya Banerjee, and Harry Lennix, The Blacklist follows Raymond “Red” Reddington (Spader) as he works as an FBI informant. His journey with the FBI began a decade ago when he began working with rookie agent Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone). This season has Red and his team facing new challenges as those he helped take down come after him.
Viewers will see two episodes air next week, on Thursday, June 1st. Individual episodes will air each week after that until the series finale on July 13th.
John Eisendrath, Jon Bokenkamp, John Davis, John Fox, James Spader, Lukas Reiter, Laura A. Benson, Daniel Cerone, Sean Hennen, Allison Glock-Cooper, and T Cooper serve as executive producers of the long-running series.
Per NBC, 29.1 million viewers tuned in to watch the ninth season of The Blacklist in the live+35 day ratings. In the traditional live+same day ratings, season 10 episodes have attracted an average of 1.84 million viewers, down 38% from season nine. In the live+7 day ratings, episodes more than double their same day viewership.
What do you think? Will you be sad to see The Blacklist end? Would you have watched an eleventh season of the NBC drama?
I am sad to see Blacklist canceled.i don’t care what else is on oon other stations.i always watch.it is one of my favorites.i also enjoy Chicago one .please please don’t cancel Blacklist.bad move in my opinion .
Blacklist was one of two favorite shows. Now only one left. I am sad to see it go.
Have you ever watched James Spader being interviewed by Jimmy Fallon or Seth Meyers? He is Raymond Reddington and Red is James. It’s what makes the whole show the beautiful symphony of acting it is. The rest of the cast harmonizes with him and together have produced one of the most interesting shows in the last decade. I will miss it so much.
As long as Blacklist is airing, I’ll be watching. Well, as long as Spader is there, that is!!! Because without him, there’s nothing to watch, of course. Which isn’t said to diminish any of the other players in any way…just that without a king, there is no kingdom. I’m bereft at losing Red. So little of interest or quality left. Blacklist was an oasis in an ever-widening wasteland. Can’t imagine another character coming close to the incomparable Red Reddington. But then, I could never have imagined RR ! Sure hope we’ll see more of Spader. First caught my eye waaaay… Read more »
Well, I will miss Red, that’s for sure. He was all the charm of the series after aram’s exit.
I think it’s been an amazing show but it’s definitely time to quit. The idea of Red having his own spin off show could certainly work through.
On all of tv it’s the best TV Drama and show!! You just never know what is going to happen next like most shows!! I just think James Spader is the best actor on TV on his at least two TV shows he has been on, the other one being a layer. Cant say that for his other, program lawyer costar William Shatner, (what an awful conseded, ham acto, he is, yuk) ! Also the man that played his body guard to begin within Blacklist, and then went on to work for the F.B.I. on the program, fabulous actor!! Those… Read more »
Oh I would so be thrilled to see it continued at a good time on an important TV night!! It’s a wonderful fabulous show and has moved around too much!! Think Thursday night would be such a good night for this progrsm?! It’s the best program, I think NBC has on their TV schedule, just never on the right night for optimal viewership.
Will definitely miss but probably good time to end . Big fan of James spader.
I will miss this show,it’s my favorite and I’m heartbroken
ME TOO!!!!
I WISH THE BLACKLIST WOULD CONTINUE. I REALLY, REALLY LOVE THIS SHOW!
ME too…my favorite program!!!!
Will miss James Spader. They should give him his own series. Writers please keep him . He is fantastic.
OOOOOOH WOULDN’T THAT BE THE BEST THING EVER ON TV!!!!
I would definitely have watched as many seasons as became available. I will truly miss this show
It was the best!! Could not agree more!!
