Watched the last ep, amazing finish, just when you think everything is dying down and the story is going to end the whole thing gets chucked on its head and here we go again! Last 20 mins is amazing.

agreed, for the rest of it i was like "is anything going to happen" and literally BOOM!!! It gets real interesting...
it certainly leaves you asking alot of questions... All i said at the end was "surely not!!"

looking forward to season 3

First ep of season 3 was good, seemed to have jumped forward a fair bit though.

I was thinking the same thing. Episode 2 seemed to pick up a bit but still a lot of time went down. I'm really looking forward to seeing how they use Quinn this season. The bloke just looks intense all the time.

I wasn't sure about last weeks episode, but last night more than made up for it.

I didn't see the double cross by Carrie (with Sol) coming last night. That was very well set up.

It looks as though people don't feel the same way as us after Monday's episode - http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertainme ... 6745066353

This has spoilers in it if you have not watched the episode from Monday just gone.

Can't believe people take it so seriously.

Heck, I loved the twist at the end. For the record, I hate Carrie's unstable personality and her constant crying, so I'm glad the mental asylum was all faked.

But yes, it was far too convincing, with her bashing her head against the mirror in frustration with no-one around. Why would she do that if it was all planned? Lol.

I'm enjoying the series still. Although I feel like I'm missing out with the Blacklist on the other channel.

I was shocked when they revealed the twist at the end. I also find her hard to like as a character as IMO feel they have taken her too far down the sooky la la road. They aren't using her Dad and Sister well either come to think about it. I don't get what the CIA would gain by telling them that the release meeting was moved/ cancelled. It has opened up a few cracks in the story line though.

If I wasn't already so committed to Homeland I would be all over the Black List like a rash. This one may have to wait until the end of the season where I can "buy" it all at once.

Homeland is bringing the sceptic out in me. You truly never know who is watching.

Yeah I'm still into it. Although I'm starting to get the shits with how they always put Carrie in missions when they know she is always going to compromise them in some way

Should have shot her properly.

the first season was brilliant, but it is just getting utterly ridiculous now. how they keep putting carrie in obvious situations where she will compromise things. she would be in jail for divulging classified information and aiding and abetting terrorism ages ago

The Blacklist is only watchable because of James Spader. Take him out and it's completely average.
