I really hope there's a point to this phone call other than to insult me.

The Blacklists ends in an expectedly uninteresting and lethargic way....

The Blacklist season 10 has felt off right from the very beginning. There just feels like there hasn't been a purpose to this season apart from saying that the show reached 10 seasons and having some sort of ending. But there wasn't any real drive in the season. The initial hope was that the drive would be in returning Blacklisters teaming up against Red and the task force, but that storyline fizzled out very fast. The final arc also felt fairly by the numbers and ended the season and series in a way that was unsatisfying but also completely expected. There hasn't been any narrative drive in the show for years now, and it has never felt like the writers had any specific endgame in mind, and that is how it felt. The show rendered the task force members to be rather toothless. At no point for years have the task force been able to one up Red. The finale should have concluded with Ressler catching up with Red and then Red dying, instead of using the weird Bull metaphor they introduced in season 10 to kill Red, that never made much sense to me. I think Harold Cooper suffered the most as a character because he spent the entire season being so indignant that Red kept conning them, as if he hadn't done that a 100 times. There was no real closure to any of the characters. Aram never returned after the season premiere. We don't know what happened to Cooper, Ressler, Dembe, Siya, Herbie etc... We just have to assume things. The show should have given some closure for the first 3 characters at least. I mean, Ressler came back to the FBI because of The Blacklist being Liz's calling and wanting to not have her death be the end. What would he do now given there is no more task force and no more Reddington? I can assume that Cooper retired, and Dembe maybe goes and reunites with his daughter. But still, just a montage showing what the characters are doing would have been nice. I never expected any further info about Red's identity because I feel they gave the answer in the season 8 finale without coming out and directly saying it, and it isn't important anymore anyways. There was a nice monologue by Dembe in the finale, which was well acted, and there were some nice scenes with Reddington with various characters, and I liked that Ressler is the one to finally find Reddington at the end and we see him put Red's hat on Red's body as a sign of respect, but all in all, an underwhelming end to an underwhelming season, to a show that was great for about 6 seasons, before it started treading water.

'The Blacklist' Series Finale: How the NBC Thriller Ended After 10 Seasons

After 10 seasons and 218 episodes, NBC's international crime thriller came to an end on July 13

This post contains spoilers for Thursday’s series finale of The Blacklist.

The Blacklist has reached the end of its run. 

On Thursday, July 13, the hit investigative series from NBC reached its close. Created by crime juggernaut Jon Bokenkamp of Taking Lives and The Call, The Blacklist followed former fugitive Raymond “Red” Reddington (James Spader), who turned himself in with his own list of the most wanted fugitives with two conditions: immunity, and that he only speak with FBI rookie Elizabeth "Liz" Keen (Megan Boone).

After Liz’s shocking death in season 8 by a revenge-thirsty hitman, Red returned to his deal with the FBI to hunt down the criminals of the blacklist in her memory. Soon, however, the committee’s operations under Harold Cooper (Harry Lenix) and Red’s own criminal enterprise came into question. 

RELATED: 'The Blacklist' Will End After Upcoming 10th Season: 'It's Been Incredibly Fun'

By the end of season 10, Red was officially called in by the Congressman Arthur Hudson’s (Toby Leonard Moore) task force. This left Red on the run, severing ties with the FBI and keeping one step ahead. A show built on criminal cat-and-mouse games, Red’s evasion was one last hurrah for The Blacklist. 

Still, Red’s close personal ties to some individuals on the Task Force, including his former bodyguard-turned-FBI Special Agent Dembe Zuma (Hisham Tawfiq), made the committee’s movements fraught.

"Don't do me any more favors," Red demanded in a secret phone call to Zuma in the two-part finale’s opening scene. "I won't. I'm going to bring you in, Raymond," Zuma answered.

While the Task Force may have captured Red’s license plate and were tracking down the car, they quickly learned that Red had multiple cars driving as a diversion. Their standard techniques simply wouldn't work in hunting down Red.

“You may want to think of Raymond as an ordinary criminal,” Zuma told the committee. “That would be a mistake.” He then reminded them that “it’s his mind we should be worried about.” 

As Red camped out, he called real estate agent Andrea Athens (Krista Braun). The agents were able to track down his temporary safehouse, primarily through Zuma’s reasoning. “You’ve got a hunch, don’t you?” agent Siya Malik (Anya Banerjee) asked. “It’s not on that list, is it?"

Still, the agents just missed Red, but learned of his new destination: a beat-down house that he was supposedly purchasing. When they arrived, the house was on fire.

“Raymond’s using the fire,” Zuma realized. “That’s how he’s getting out.”

Ever ahead of the curve, Red left the fire truck and drove off in a cab.

The disarray of the Task Force raged on, as Congressman Hudson became more paranoid of his team’s intentions. “How many times do we have to fail before we admit there’s a reason he’s always one step ahead?” he questioned.

Eventually, Hudson learned that a call was made to a burner phone before the chase, confirming his suspicion that Red was tipped off. 

Zuma realized that Red only had two options: up, by plane, or out, by boat. Eventually, the crew set their sights on Tillman’s Wharf, but before they could leave, Hudson demanded Zuma be brought in for questioning. After Cooper fought back, they agreed that he can be interrogated en route. 

After reaching the wharf, Zuma learned that Red had taken out the Great Shirley. Before they could track the boat down, though, Zuma was arrested for aiding and abetting a fugitive. “Hope he washed his hands,” the Congressman spouted off.

Meanwhile, Red got off a smaller boat, proclaiming that he “sunk” the Great Shirley, and drove off unscathed.

Cooper demanded to speak with Zuma, bursting his way into the questioning room and quickly admitting to tipping Red off. “Raymond is gone,” he said. “Someone on this Task Force will be held accountable. It should be me.”

And he was right: Red was currently in the process of leaving the country, though he had gotten word of Zuma’s arrest.

Zuma was eventually dragged off for questioning, with Hudson’s paranoia coming to a head: “I don’t trust you, I don’t trust him, and I certainly don’t trust this place.” Agent Donald Ressler (Diego Klattenhoff) quickly joined them. 

Wracked with guilt, Red crashed his car into the FBI and attempted to save Zuma. Still, Zuma told Red that he wouldn't go with him. Just then, Hudson and Ressler got out of the car and raised their weapons. Hudson shot Zuma in the neck, at which point Red shot Hudson and Ressler. While Ressler survived, the Congressman was left dead on the ground, closing out the first episode of the finale.

Agent Malik tracked Red down to a local nursing home, sending the Task Force to capture him. However, by the time they reached the home, Red was gone and Zuma was in the midst of an operation. Zuma survived after Red gave him a blood transfer, and the nurse alerted the agents that Red left looking unwell.

Hudson’s right-hand man Jordan Nixon (Derrick Williams) declared that when he finds Red, he doesn’t just want to capture him; he’ll “put him down.” This caused some agents to jump ship, while Cooper confronted Nixon over the claim, leading to a physical altercation.

Cooper and Malik headed to the bathhouse that Red resided in before his flight, but found nothing. Nixon soon arrived, having followed them with his own crew. Once they left, Malik had a realization: the bull skull that Red kept had gone missing. This clued them to his location in Spain.

Sure enough, the episode then cut to Red living in Seville, attempting to contact his granddaughter. 

Ressler arrived at the house in Seville, while Red called Zuma and Cooper, keeping his cool. When Ressler searched the house, he was unable to find Red. Minutes later, Red learned of Ressler’s visit, and planed his trip to drop the skull off at the Miura Bull Ranch. 

While Red hobbled away from the house in Seville, Zuma and Cooper reflected on the finality of their journey. “It’s hard to believe this is how it ends,” Cooper said, to which Zuma tearfully added, “Our time with him, our time together, it was never about how it ended.”

Continuing his walk, a weary Red spotted a bull in the wild. The ultimate sign of death, the bull made movements to charge at him. And, in the closing scene of the finale, Ressler found Red’s mangled body on the ground, killed by the creature that meant so much to him throughout the show’s tenure.

What’s your favorite moment from “the blacklist”?

[kiss-my-freckle]

10x1 Rewatch 

If you don’t like my Tom Domino Theory, probably best you keep scrolling. This episode hit some of the bigger dominoes in my theory. 

The inside man. 

Diane Fowler and Meera Malik vs Richard Deever and Siya Malik. 

Siya: You need agents you can trust. I'm one.

If Cooper allows Siya to join the task force, this opens up the door for my Fowler frame theory. She’ll see the same enemy for Fowler that she sees for Meera. Meera worked for Fowler, after all. It would be hard to trust Meera after Fowler’s betrayal. The point of Siya’s comment. 

Siya: Maybe it's time for me to finally know more about the work my mother did.

Diane Fowler, Victor Fokin, and Tom Connolly will connect with a single fingerprint. Because Siya is interested to know the work her mother did for the task force, Diane Fowler and Victor Fokin are automatic. Fowler was the one who placed Meera on the task force. Meera interrogated Tom during Gina’s episode, and she wasn’t pleased with how the case turned out. She knew Gina was Tom’s lover, and knew he could stop her from bombing the port. 

The black site incursion, Wujing vs. Anslo Garrick. This was an added storyline for Diane Fowler and Meera Malik. Meera worked for Fowler, Fowler was the inside man for Garrick’s incursion. Siya worked for/with Richard. Richard is the mole for Wujing’s incursion. 

Siya: Just too many secrets.

Secrets and Siya’s issue with them. I don't know how many times they talk about Tom and his secrets, but enough to count. Red only ever had one secret. 

Liz: A few years ago, I found out my husband was living a double life. Esi: Whoa. Liz: Yeah. He had secrets. Lots of them. Including this apartment.

Siya will remain loyal to the task force just as Meera did, and basically continue doing the good work Liz was supposed to. 

Liz’s second memory wipe. 

The intro to Liz’s second memory wipe in Ressler’s scenes. 

Ressler: I have a hard time letting go of the past. I mean, it's in my nature to want to fix things and... It's just hard for me to accept. I lost someone I loved, and... it can't be undone. I mean, I... I became an addict. I hit bottom. Uh... I wish it didn't happen, but it did. And letting that go and leaving that be... It's hard for me. 

This is written opposite Liz in season 7. 

Red: I’m sure it’s been difficult since Tom. But you have Agnes now. You should be looking forward, not back. You deserve a bigger life.

Someone has to look back in order to uncover Liz’s second memory wipe. The very purpose of Meera Malik’s daughter joining the team. Once she pushes Fowler, she pushes Connolly on the opposite side. It was Tom’s gun Liz used to shoot him in 2x22. Because it was Tom’s gun, it will present itself just as the gun he used in Fokin’s death. His print will be on the shell casing. Both shell casings will match the print left on the record brush in Fowler’s case. Once it pushes to Tom Connolly, it pushes to the flag Ressler put on all of Tom’s aliases in 2x17. 

Ressler: Well, we'll have to walk down memory lane another time.

Intentional. The Freelancer and Wujing take us on a walk down memory lane with Liz. Flashbacks from Wujing’s episode. Storytime with the Freelancer about season 9 Liz. I’m predicting a great deal more will be coming soon enough. 

Agnes: Maybe we should go back to Go Fish.

Agnes hits Tom’s scene in 3x11 with Go Fish. 

Red: You will not marry her. Tom: Why? Because I didn’t ask daddy’s permission? Is that really why you called me here? Or did you just want someone to play go fish? Red: You married her over my objection once. It will not happen again.

A coffee klatch.

Red: Well, not much of the gang. More of a coffee klatch.

A house that looks like a cruise ship.

Red: I mean, all of this would have to come out. It's ridiculous. It looks like a cruise ship. Like, what's this? A balcony?

This also pulls in Red’s ship in Marvin’s episode. 

♪ Our house is a very, very, very fine house with two cats in the yard Life used to be so hard Now everything is easy 'cause of you ♪

Tying it all together.

Tom: All right, dream scenario. We finish our coffee, we hop on my boat. We leave, okay. We never look back. Preferably, we take our clothes off at some point.

Because Agnes is Ressler’s daughter, and he’s 301 days sober. Siya is the best person to uncover all of Tom’s bulshit because she’s an agent and a spy. 

[seriouslycromulent]

Me, rewatching the 1st season of The Blacklist on Netflix because ...

... I honestly don't remember any of the details about some of the characters (Wujing, Meera Malik, etc.) they're referencing now in the 10th season.

In doing so, I learned that Meera's daughter, Siya, who just joined the team wasn't as old as they said she was when her mum died. This season, they said she was 15 when Meera died, but in the 1st season, they said Meera left 2 daughters, age 8 and 5.

Technically, Siya would've only been 18 if they kept her the same age at the end of season 1.

[raymond-reddington-ruminations]

Thoughts on 10.02, no spoilers.

Well, that was interesting.. and also a little not.

Turns out it's more of a Malik episode. Which is fine, and good. Needed. When Samar left I remember complaining that the team had lost the international woman of mystery vibe. Someone who would be comfortable in any country and any situation and capable no matter what. Park most definitely wasn't that. But it looks like Siya is. So I'm very glad for that, she is seamlessly sliding into the team and fulfilling a niche, which Park never found.

I can understand where Ressler was coming from in his concerns, considering the history, but a job has to be done and there will always be people to do it. Would he, or anybody, have said the same things if it was a male character? I'm trying to cut him some slack on this, but if somebody said that to me I'd be pissed as hell.

I guess it's a night for almost crossing lines. Red's actions with Agnes.... Over the line? Maybe. But from such a distance and in such a way that it doesn't feel like that.

I was hoping for more on that. But it looks like Reddington is very much holding back, and continuing with a very wide paranoid streak. There was that scene on the plane, the absence. Boy that felt weird. Not to mention what might be a bucket list. Again, I feel like he's probably justified. Things are worse than they seem, and we can't see it yet. I don't think Wujing is going to turn out to be the ultimate villain he faces down with. I'm reminded that one of the last things he ever said to Elizabeth was that Neville Townsend most likely told Red's secret to others, and they would be coming. I'm surprised it took them so long.

While this all makes for some great tension and mystery, I feel like it's keeping us a little bit removed from Red. I hope that changes, and I hope that isn't a deliberate prepping for something. I want to feel close to Red. I want others to feel close to Red as well. Get after him, Dembe. Hes in a bad spot, he won't say it, and he needs his security.

Watching this last season of Blacklist and they substituted one set of father issues via Elizabeth and substituted for mother issues via Siya Malik.

I also just don't like Siya's character.
