I really like this show. Jennifer Carpenter is a powerhouse. I liked Morris Chestnut more in his last show, but he's ok. Why everyone is trying to co.pare this to The Blacklist is insane. Totally different premise and storyline. It's more straightforward internal espionage and terror. Plus, James Spader plays the good/bad guy, or bad/good guy. Carpenter's story is out at the beginning, we are 6 season's in on Reddington and still don't know who he is. I will watch them both regularly and happily.
