Red’s time on television is coming to an end. NBC has announced that the upcoming 10th season of The Blacklist will be the drama’s last. The final episodes begin airing on Sunday, February 26th, at 10:00 PM — the show’s latest in a long list of timeslots over a decade. The Blacklist’s 200th episode will air on March 19th.
A crime thriller series, The Blacklist TV show stars James Spader, Diego Klattenhoff, Hisham Tawfiq, Anya Banerjee, and Harry Lennix. The series’ story begins as one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives, Raymond “Red” Reddington (Spader), offers to help the authorities if a specific rookie agent, Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone), partners with him. In season 10, Red confronts unparalleled danger. With Reddington’s covert role as an FBI informant facing exposure, former Blacklisters unite against him in their lethal desire for revenge — testing Red and the FBI Task Force as never before.
After 10 years, hundreds of Blacklist cases and more than 200 episodes produced, we’re honored to reach our conclusion,” said showrunner and executive producer John Eisendrath. “It’s been incredibly fun to create the strange, devious and delightful Blacklisters to challenge Raymond Reddington and our FBI Task Force each week. We would like to thank everyone at NBC and Sony, our extraordinary crew who make the impossible happen every day, our endlessly inventive writers and producers, and our remarkable cast who brought life to these characters. We appreciate our dedicated fanbase who came along for this wonderful ride and are excited to share this final season with them.”
“It isn’t often that a series resonates so deeply with an audience that it airs for 10 seasons, but The Blacklist proved to a perfect combination of highly talented producers, stellar writing, a cast that never failed to deliver and a crew that always rose to the occasion,” said Lisa Katz, President, Scripted Content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. “A huge thank you to our partners at Sony, everyone from the past decade who made this show an integral part of NBC’s storied history and, of course, a special nod to James Spader, whose performance remains nothing short of spectacular.”
We thank our wonderful partners at NBC for a remarkable 10 seasons of The Blacklist, the series that introduced the world to Raymond Reddington, brilliantly portrayed by James Spader,” said Jason Clodfelter, Co-President, Sony Pictures Television Studios. “James has led a multi-talented and diverse cast that also featured legendary guest stars and hundreds of Blacklisters who made us all root for this anti-hero. We tip our Reddington hat to the dedicated production staff, hard-working crew and talented writers. The unpredictable plot twists have produced a legacy TV show that served to entertain a worldwide audience and as we enter the final season, we can’t wait for audiences to see how Raymond Reddington takes a final bow.”

What do you think? Are you looking forward to watching season 10 of The Blacklist on NBC? Are you disappointed that there won’t be an 11th season?
James “Red” Spader was excellent and great in the role always out smarting everyone in all series . I’m sure he wanted the bull horn him instead of his friends associated with FBI arresting or shooting him especially who he always worked with . I salute all the other actors as well. … So long RED ! I suppose all his crooked groups look forward to a new boss !
We LOVE Red and hate that it’s ending. This season was great.Even burying it on Sunday nights didn’t deter us!
James Spader & Co will be sorely missed….
The Blacklist is one of the very few TV shows I’ve watched consistently for several years. I’m really sorry to hear that it will be the last season and will greatly miss it.
Excited about season 10. Sad it is the final season. James Spader is an extraordinary actor. Thoroughly excellent show.
My family and I are so excited to see season 10 of Blacklist and are truly heartbroken that NBC will not continue with season 11 and more . We hope another network will pick it up and continue this incredible series . There are many garbage series on tv that should be canceled but certainly not Blacklist.
Still Best show on TV. Still good ratings. Maybe another network should pick it up and Rip should take NBC to the Train Station.
One of my ALL time favorite shows. Wish another network would pick it up!!! Will miss it so much!!! James Spaderis such a great actor. He should have a wall full of awards!!!!!!
It was good, but we actually stopped watching it when Elizabeth was killed off.
