Season overview
The Blacklist is an American crime thriller television series created by Jon Bokenkamp and developed by John Eisendrath. The series stars James Spader as Raymond Reddington, a former government agent who became one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives. Known as the Concierge of Crime, Reddington spent decades brokering deals for criminals across the globe. The narrative begins when Reddington mysteriously surrenders in person at FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. He offers to assist the agency in capturing other dangerous criminals and terrorists, claiming that he and the FBI share the same interests. Reddington possesses a list of individuals he has tracked over the last two decades, which he refers to as his blacklist. His cooperation is contingent upon one specific condition: he will speak only to Elizabeth Keen, an FBI profiler who is fresh out of Quantico. For Keen, whose life is uprooted by this encounter, the arrangement marks a challenging start to her career. The series features a cast including Megan Boone, Diego Klattenhoff, and Harry Lennix. The show is categorized as a drama, crime, and mystery series that originally premiered in 2013.
