Blacklist: Redemption

      Okay let me be honest right off the bat, I never have seen a single episode of "The Blacklist." I was, however, game for the "The Blacklist Redemption" because Famke Jensen was going to be one of the main cast members. I have been watching it since its premiere, and it is really good and very interesting.
      Scottie is a very dynamic character, especially giving all the things we are possibly finding out about her. She may be a sleeper cell crazy person, meant to take over her husband's company like she has; and possibly could be the reason for his "death." Of course, he isn't actually really dead, but only Tom (Ryan Eggold) knows that Scottie thinks that her husband is dead, and the company is all hers to rule. We also have found out that Tom is actually Scottie's son; who she has been looking for since he went missing when he was five years old. This is just some crazy shit going on here, but of course, the icing on the cake is the fact that she has a gigolo. I mean come on, we all know that if we had as much power, money, and stress as Scottie, there would for sure be a playboy involved (also must have the NDA). I mean that part of the story is quite intriguing to me, and I wouldn't mind haveing that duder on my payroll.
      Tom (Ryan Eggold) is also a great character and let me just say it, I wouldn't ever kick him out of bed. He has grown and gotten better with age. Wow, that sounds a little bad. I'm not saying he is aging a lot or anything like that, I just meant from his 90210 reboot days. Tom's character is just very interesting how he has to pretty much be a double agent, but at the same time, we must wonder about  Socttie's"late" husband, who could be in fact a little crazy. Tom know's he is her son, and she claims to have suffered all these years and only been looking for him throughout it all. However, we would begin to think if it is all true, and any given person that find out that information it would for sure bring up some mental turmoil and torture. Any bad ass dude that can carry a gun, play the con approach, and kick some ass is always one to watch. So yes, my main two reasons for watching the show, but they have gained me as an audience member.
     The rest of the team is of course, all needed in terms of secrecy and bond like times. I really cater to watching the badass antics and wit that comes along with it, from Nez Rowan(Tawny Cypress). She seems to be a different take on a character that is pretty brutal and cut throat, seeing as how she is just a woman. If it came time for it though, I would pick her first to be on my team. Dumont is a great computer and tech wiz, one we must always have in these times, no matter what. Great dude who seems to know how to do the tech logistics and programming. Matias Solomon (Edi Gathegi) is the character that I can't seem to make a final decision and opion on at the moment. Of course everytime I see him on the screen my brain keeps screaming "Twilight" and "X-MEN." I guess maybe it would be a little different had I watched The Blacklist before just jumping onto a show based on one actress alone. Whatever, it is what it is, Famke is one of my girls and I followed her like the good little puppy I am.
