Way too much torture in the show. Just gets gross to be gross, which is incredibly lazy writing. Spader is awesome, but he's about the only person in the show who can act. The chick is super annoying, and the dude agent is a total bore. Plus the plots are just ridiculous. Suppose the human trafficking episode hit close to home, with the head of the charity being complicit, but there are simply more bad shows than good, and Spader is the only saving grace. Sadly not enough that it's worth sitting through that many seasons.
Lol, literally after you comment about acting skill, now it's only about how the show is presented. Whatever dude, the show sucks anyways. Have fun with your Spader boner.
I like it too, but the main actress is a terrible actress.
James Spader well and beyond makes up for that.
And you're right. She's awful. Really, really bad.

Yeah, except this thread isn't a critique on acting. It's about how the government is portrayed on TV.
And the themes that The Blacklist deals with fits into this category pretty well.
