The Black List
« on: November 06, 2013, 11:42:32 PM »
Anyone else watch this show? I like it alright. James Spader is way too good at being an eerily self-confident eccentric; pretty much like his role in The Office.  :lol:

I was, however, very disappointed to see that the disease from Sleepy Hollow (or rather, Roanoke) showed up in Black List.  =|

Watched one episode Spaderman was hamming it up the whole way through. Decided that I wasn't going to watch anymore of that.

We're watching it too. It's okay.

James Spader as the uber-competent & slimy master criminal/defector/traitor guy with his quips and sociopathic demeanor is funny, but otherwise the show is a one-trick pony.

The whole sub-plot of "is he or is he not the FBI agent's father" is going to get old too.

I'm predicting Mrs. Dual and I will follow it for a season or two, then get tired of it unless the writers have some really excellent plots they're holding onto.
I promise not to duck.
