Anybody else watching this show? My hubby and I really love it. Lots of surprises and twists. Even though some episodes are predictable and the sub-plots are almost dismissable beneath the main plot (Lizzie-Tom-Red), it's a great show. My only interest really lies in the unfolding relationships between Lizzie, Tom, and Red; the other characters and minor plots barely hold my notice.
I watch it. I adore James Spader's acting.
I'm thinking there's going to be a major twist in the Red-Lizzie plot. Viewers think they know who he is, but last episode with Tom's revelation and information about the safe deposit box that he gave to Lizzie before he left, makes it curious.
Though since Tom was set to meet Lizzy from the beginning, premeditating every move he made even at the first introduction to her, I think that he said he knew she would find that safe deposit box key leads to thinking he could very well have planted the pictures that are inside it.
Is he after Red? Or is he after Lizzie? He said he wasn't there to hurt her. But if he is after Red what better way to confuse the link between Red and Lizzie than to plant photos that would make her think Red is a monster?
Destroying that relationship, Red then loses one of his greatest allies in the government secret services. Services that he's using to his own advantage in the first place.
I like the show. It is twisty enough that just when you think you've got it figured out you may be right in one respect, but then a twist comes along and turns that all around.
Spader is very selective in the projects he undertakes. He's not in movies all the time, like for instance Tom Hanks is. When he shows up on small screen it has to be a good show.
Do you get the On Demand series? They have behind the scenes Blacklist features too.
