Ah, the war of the remote control. While at one time it intensified the power struggle within a marriage or relationship, the truth is, with multiple-television households, this quirky little tug-of-war is now all but extinct. Case in point: in my home, usually, you’ll find my husband holed up in his basement “man cave”, while I snuggle in our bed channel surfing for chick flicks. His preference is ultimate fighting competitions; mine – cooking competitions.
However, we do agree on a few television shows – namely, The Blacklist on Global TV. It starts the brilliant James Spader as Raymond ‘Red’ Reddington. Ex-government agent Reddington is one of the FBI’s Most Wanted fugitives, who has brokered shadowy deals for criminals across the globe. Known as “The Concierge of Crime,” Reddington has mysteriously surrendered to the FBI, offering to help catch high-profile terrorists – but on the condition that he only speaks with rookie profiler Elizabeth “Liz” Keen (Megan Boone).
Following so far? Here’s the Coles Notes version for those who are new to the show:
Monday night has become “date night” at our place as we settle in for an always-thrilling episode. And with a BRAND NEW episode airing Monday, March 17 at 10:00 ET, my husband and I will continue our tradition of actually watching television… on the same floor, in the same room!
“Season 1, Episode 16: The Hunter Becomes the Hunted – The next target on the Blacklist is one of Red’s past associates, crime lord Mako Tanida. After Tanida escapes from prison he is out for revenge. Elsewhere, Tom confronts Jolene after interfering with his mission…”
So… will you be watching The Blacklist this Monday night?

I have not seen it but am interested.
I haven’t heard anything about this show until I read your review. I haven’t had cable in years so unless my daughter is into a show, I don’t stay up to date. I will have to ask Sara if is her and Ryan watch this one…I would be surprised if they didn’t because after Dexter, True Blood and Breaking Bad ended, it has left a void.
I am a HUGE Blacklister… James Spader stars…nuff said. Im dying to find out who Lizzie’s Tom really is and how Red will protect her from him if necessary.. The suspense is killing me lol
I haven’t watched it yet – but I think I should check it out – I will make a reminder to catch it tomorrow night !!!
Yes I do
