    Within the first five minutes of the new crew assembling; I was convinced I was watching little more than an update of "MISSION IMPOSSIBLE". Over the top, and little of the mystery that makes Blacklist watchable.

    "Redemption" cannot hold a candle to the original "Blacklist". "Redemption is just an attempt by the show's producers to keep the franchise going after James Spader and company either call it quits or "Blacklist" is cancelled.

    I think they failed with Tom as the anchor the spinoff series, I think they could have done better with Matais Solomon as the anchor, as they had already developed some depth in his character on The Blacklist.
    Tom was always just a "prop" character for lack of better word.
    I'll watch, just to see how they try an save the "titanic" of a spinoff.

    I started watching this show, with no prior knowledge of "The Blacklist". I think it is semi-good. I'm not entirely sure how NBC is going to be able to do a season 2 of this show, after one of the biggest questions all season, was answered. I think NBC needs to focus on other areas of its lineup.

I think NBC needs to get another Medical TV Drama started, and all these other types of drama's need to be left alone for a little while. NBC, has almost no comedy's, maybe they should do some comedy. My score= 66%… Expand

    Blacklist: Redemption is a sturdy show built on a smart premise.

    The real question for The Blacklist: Redemption’s future success is whether or not Janssen and Eggold will be able to carry a title that has been, until now, entirely dependent on Spader’s magnetism. Based on the premiere, it seems unlikely--Tom is not even the second-most interesting character from “The Blacklist,” and Scottie’s mystique makes it hard to feel intimately connected to her character.
