The Blacklist (TV Series) Arcane Wireless (No. 154) (2022) User Reviews

[8.2] The T command center

[cjonesas · 8/10 · 26 February 2022]

Episode 10: Intelligent, entertaining, convenient (too convenient maybe), full of half-ruse and deception, having its share of humor and shades of funniness.

It basically revolves around one character's loyalty to Reddington with some side plots thrown for good measure, the Arcane deep cover! And Aram's bewildered and worried eyes exteriorizing his state of mind (the nearly best of the episode's side plots).

In the end, all matters resolve too admirably and we are left to a treat from Reddington's conviviality.

No mind-blowing actions fooling around, instead, chess-like moves for the pleasure of the mind.

More Red Action Please!

[ZegMaarJus · 8/10 · 10 July 2022]

This Episode begins with a raid, Heddie contacts Red. Marvin visits Heddie in jail, but it is complicated to get her out of jail. Powell admits to Aram that he created the Arcane Network. Odin got killed by the FBI. The Seer seems to work for the FBI, he was undercover at Arcane. Heddie got out of jail. Nice Episode of The Blacklist Season 9, Red had a small role this episode. I would like to see more Red action, more in the field!

HE'S BAAAAACK!!!!

RED IS BACK!! Look, we all love Reddington/James Spader, but yes, the show has been chugging along on a blown cylinder this season (not awful but definitely lacking!), but boy, kudos to producers/writers for still having some big juicy rabbits to haul out of a few still shiny top hats...this was CLASSIC Reddington!!! His people in trouble, a multi-layered bad guy with more bad guys and Reddington ever the puppet master over all!! No spoilers here but this was the amuse bouche we all needed and I especially implore the "truly recently dissatisfied" fans to give this carnival of RED a whirl...you won't leave disappointed!!

Totally Enjoyable

It's fun to have a show where one can root for the "bad" guys. Well, one of the bad guys is the good guy, even though he is the most wanted in America. This is an episode where Reddington works his magic to put down some really nasty operatives with international implications. Of course, a big part of it is his own avarice. Mixed in with all this is a neat lady whose loyalty is tested. She has to face up to 20 years in prison unless she turns on the big guy. He takes care of his own. There are other tests of such loyalty within the task force. There was a nice rhythm to this episode which really showed that the show still has punch.

Raymond is the king

If the episode about Raymond Reddington dealing with criminals the ratings will always be up and the episode will be amazing - If the episode about the boring task force the ratings will be down and the episode will be boring it's very simple Reddington/James carries this show since the beginning

Raymond > TheBlacklist.

Red the king of criminales

[keen-87358 · 10/10 · 26 February 2022]

Reddington is the strongest man I've seen on TV, he has his people everywhere, his intelligence is unbeatable, what I like most about him is that he is not in a rush to achieve his goals, he can wait for the right time and surprise the enemy without leaving him any chance of survival...

Finally!!

[JosephFabeetz · 9/10 · 4 March 2022]

Now THIS is the Blacklist we once knew and loved! Multi-layered plot with twists and turns, familiar characters, no WOKE BS, and wry dialogue all leading to a satisfying experience. I rate it at 9 only because I still can't get past Dembe being an FBI agent. Hmm ... since Raymond is back, I wonder who Dembe really works for. I guess we'll see.

So good

After two quite boring episodes dealing with flashbacks and reactions to Elizabeth's death, we finally have a normal case, with Elizabeth's death only taking a few minutes of it.

The episode has a great and fun plot, and several acting highlights. Of course, Raymond. But Heddie, Marvin, and Cooper (especially in the end) are great too. And the best was Aram. I liked him so much, his dialogues with his former mentor, his reactions, were perfect. And I love that he does the right thing.

I really do not have more to comment, so just to fill the IMDB quota, watch this episode. It is super enjoyable.
