The Blacklist is, IMO, the best show on TV. It is full of intrigue, moves at a great pace, has intricate episodes that move with many twists and turns, and has great characters, especially James Spader. This show is not empty minded, but compels one to think about what is really going on "behind the scenes" in the real world. The DVD is well worth the money as the episodes do not get boring on rewatches.

I watched one episode of blacklist in season 3 and I had started recording it in season 2. After sampling one episode I knew I had to go back and watch the series from the beginning. I have now just about completed season one on the dvd I purchased. Each episode seems to be better than the one before!! They seem to fly by once an episode gets started and each one has you on the edge of your seat. Very entertaining and suspenseful!!!! Has to be the best series on television.

I called this show Modern Day Game of Thrones because like GOT you never know who is going to be in power next or die and leave the show. I started watching this on NetFlix. I'm a big fan of James Spader who was in the movie Star Gate and TV series Boston Legal. His acting skills rise to meet the job in this show. He plays a criminal who is on the FBI's top 10 most wanted list. Spader's character walks right in to the FBI's office and turns himself in but refuses to speak to anyone except Elizabeth Keen. Why? What is his relationship to her? The entire show seems to revolve around these questions. All the while Spader's character gives the FBI wanted criminals the FBI doesn't even know exist. It seems he has the FBI in his pocket in his own struggle for power. Spader's acting is truly amazing and the twists and turns in the plot is constantly changing. Just when you think you've figured it out, you haven't. A truly great show and highly recommended. Read full review

If you are a fan of Blacklist you should consider owning the whole season 1 set. Go back and see what you missed. Put some missing pieces together and own all those "Wow" moments that kept you tuning in, week after week. After knowing what you know later, seeing it again has a different twist and you see things you didn't notice first time around. Watching on DVD is better than on TV because there are no commercials!!! No anticipating what's next or fast forwarding. Any fan, or fan of a fan, should purchase this and gift themselves or others. They will be glad they did! My husband and I are!! If you are not yet a fan you can't go wrong by getting this set if it is down your alley at all. The actors, actresses, directing and plots are intriguing. If you missed it get it now and get caught up before season 2 is over.Read full review
With all the commercials on television, I decided to buy this series, not only because I love the idea of the series, I thought it would be nice to have a Blacklist marathon some rainy weekend. James Spader is perfect for the role of Red and the character is consummately evil and "selectively" compassionate at the same time. It's a soap opera for adults, akin to the old Dallas series of the 80s. Red's character development keeps me coming back for more and I plan on getting season 2 as soon as it's available. If you like James Spader you will LOVE this series. If you loved Boston Legal you will go head over heels for this.
