RaiderHaters Revenge 3,565 Posted May 13, 2018 have they had the one where there is a huge secret but its not the secret everyone wants to know, or the episode where someone is shot and there is no way they could live only to be walking out of a imaginary secret hospital 2 hours later?

wiffleball 4,631 Posted May 13, 2018 I don't mind if they have their own show. I really don't. But since they have this show? Can they stay the hell off of all the other white shows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kopy 489 Posted May 13, 2018 James Spader rocks as Red Reddington. Season 5 finale this Wednesday night. That's great news. Supposedly the finale is supposed to be a big cliff hanger or something. So a cancelation would've really sucked.Plus, Red is just such a well played character by Spader. I know it probably doesn't have much of a shelf life left, but it'll suck when it's gone.

Kopy 489 Posted May 13, 2018 Spader sucked in Ironman.I'm sure he's sucked in alot more than just Ironman.But every now and then, you just get the perfect match of actor and character. I think Spader has that with Red. Ed O'neill as Al Bundy always comes to mind also as just the perfect match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted May 13, 2018 Never watched this show but I think I would like it. Im a big fan of smart crime solving situations.I'm surprised at its popularity. For a show that is repetitive and drones on and on, with some stupidly ridiculous holes, it's pretty decent. I just got annoyed and sick of it. Although nothing will ever annoy me more than the show with Kevin Bacon as a detective chasing some lunatic who was obsessed with Edgar Allen Poe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The departed was the name I think. No, that isnt right. I cant remember the name. I watched a season of two of that. It was fun. Kinda dumb, but fun. ETA: the following. The villain was focking excellent in that. But yeah. The ridiculous escapes and what not got old quick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was the stupid little escapes, like you said. The first thing that made me go wtf????!! Bacon walks into a bedroom and looks at a shelf of Poe masks. He turns back around, walks a few steps, and is attacked out of nowhere. The perp was standing against the wall next to the shelf. He was wearing a Poe mask. We were supposed to believe that Bacon, this awesome detective, thought this guys head was just another mask on the shelf. Never mind there was a body attached to it.....

RaiderHaters Revenge 3,565 Posted May 19, 2018 Terrarium or Kodi cut the cable/directv. Have been free of that bill for 3 years now, and never watch commercials or miss a single show I want to watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RaiderHaters Revenge 3,565 Posted May 19, 2018 My whole reason for not cutting the cord is sports. Islanders Mets Red Zone How does that workout for you. flawlessly, I have 3 tv's in my media room, I put on the MLB TV free game of the day on one, then any other game it takes me about 3 minutes to find a stream on Sunday, I put 1 TV on Directv Red Zone, 1 TV on Fox/CBS and other TV on whichever game I actually want to watch streamed. Quite frankly its more trouble for me switching which I want to have surround sound thru speakers than finding a clean stream here is a suggestion though. Spend 29$ get yourself a new firestick and start playing with that. Go onto youtube and follow videos on how to install/setup Terrarium and Kodi. Once comfortable with it, buy Fire TV boxes (they stream faster and can be connected to Ethernet) for each TV and cut the cord. I think in the last 3 years, I have spent about 250$ ( I bought 2 new FIRETV boxes and a couple sticks) and I have never missed a game I also have Amazon Prime for a lot of other stuff My son who is 6, only knows how to watch TV on Amazon stick/tv, and knows how to work Kodi and Terrarium to find his own shows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SenatorRock 708 Posted May 20, 2018 I used to love this show. Haven't got around to starting current season. Is it any better than season 4? Is Red back to kicking ass and taking names? Is Tom or his MILF around since the spin off show tanked? I am kind of excited about pulling a summer time binge of this now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have to look into that. well, if you are trying to make adjustments, cut Netflix and Hulu and add Sling, that will get you a ton of Football. Everything on Netflix and Hulu can be found on Terrarium or Kodi. The box is a huge difference though zero buffering, click and go, cause the boxes have much better processors in them as well, I even think some are dual-core now.

Cruzer 1,992 Posted May 21, 2018 Love the Blacklist.. Red Reddington is one of the best characters ever, and Spader is fantastic as him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vince44 202 Posted May 21, 2018 Season finale of season 5 was great!! It was amazing! Liz outsmarting Red was almost as shocking as the reveal of the identity of the bones. The two sisters working to bring down "dad" will be a good kickoff to season six. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is Tom or his MILF around since the spin off show tanked? I am kind of excited about pulling a summer time binge of this now. Yes! The midseason finale when a major character died (not trying to play spoiler) was maybe the best of the entire series with thrilling nonstop action. And the aftermath of that took a fairly tame character into a more bada$$ direction. Yes, he is. Red was shooting everything in sight these last several episodes of season five cause he's hell bent on getting back this duffel bag. It's a secret he doesn't want to come out and is popping caps into anyone that is in his way. Tom came back to the series for season five, but Susan only made a cameo appearance.

Kopy 489 Posted May 30, 2018 Awesome finale. I guessed right on the duffel bag. I got a kudos from the Mrs on that one. She thought my theory was nutz. Super excited for the last season. And knowing it's there last season, means they can wrap everything up with an actual ending. Can't wait! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vince44 202 Posted January 5, 2019 Wow! The two part season six premiere was so good the past two nights. Red is going to spend this year in federal prison and doesn't know it was Liz that betrayed him. I am looking forward to this story. Love the action and twists in this show. Best crime drama on TV. Spader is on his way to a fourth Emmy award. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyclone24 1,794 Posted January 5, 2019 We bailed after a couple seasons. Too many secrets I'm going to tell you but first do XYZ. Oh...you did XYZ? Well just a minute..it can wait theres something more urgent now I need you to do before I tell you the secret. Repeat. Spader is great though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,631 Posted January 5, 2019 Okay, speaking of actors just built for certain roles. And a nice little James Spader tie in as well: Pretty safe to say that William Shatner sucked in almost every role he ever played. But God damn, he absolutely was Denny Crane. Definitely one of my favorite characters on television at one point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
